    Sonisphere

    I hope that nobody in this forum has tickets for Sonisphere. Rumour has it that it has been cancelled LINK. Apparently ticket sales have been poor. Not surprising considering the weak lineup compared to Download festival.

    Tesco clubcard unspent points

    Had my monthly clubcard letter this week, and it had a message on the booklet saying that I had £6 in unspent vouchers in my clubcard account. As far as I knew, I didn't have an account, I just used the vouchers that they sent me. I dug a little deeper and created a login on the Tesco website...

    Tracer

    Here's a new band from Australia who have been getting a fair bit of air time on Planet Rock. I went to see them at the beginning of the week, purely on the basis of this one track. They were playing a support slot in Bristol, and they were brilliant. I now have their new album too, and it is...

    Thank You from Veterans Aid

    Recently we sent a cheque for £500 to Veterans Aid on behalf of the members and staff of E-Goat. For those who may not be aware, E-Goat is run by Wobbly as a totally non profit making site. All the money that is given to the site by our donators and subscribers is ploughed back into the site...

    An (ex) Serviceman's instinct

    Saw a follow-up report to this story in my local paper yesterday... http://www.swindonadvertiser.co.uk/news/local/8913700.Man_accused_of_cheating_Help_for_Heroes_charity/ The report yesterday was that he has been bailed to reappear on 22nd July (hopefully for sentencing!). The piece in the...

    Black Swan

    Went to see Black Swan at the cinema last night, and I definately think it is going to sweep the board at the Oscars, because it is crap! I cannot see why all the critics are raving about it. I have seen reviews saying it is terrifying, edge of the seat and brilliant story telling. Well I can...

    High Voltage Festival 2 for 1

    If anybody is interested in this year's High Voltage Festival and hasn't got tickets yet, this could be the deal for you. Orange are doing a 2 for 1 ticket deal, so you get 2 tickets for £135. Pretty good deal considering the line-up. The festival is at Victoria Park London on 24th and...

    One for real beer lovers

    Lidl have a cracking deal on at the moment. Hobgoblin, Spitfire, Bishop's Finger and Pedigree all at £1 per bottle. These are the 500ml bottles, and not the smaller ones that you often see in cheap deals. Happy Drinking!

    An interesting World Cup site

    Found this link on another forum, and thought I would post it here. It gives a pictoral representation of where all the world cup players are based for their league football. Interestingly, there are 3 teams where the players all play in their home nation, England, Italy and Germany and only...

    Thank-You E-Goat

    Just to let all our members know, I received a thank-you letter from St Dunstan's for the £500 donation that we made recently. This means that we have a total donation over the past year of £1500. As many of you are already aware, but some of our newer members may not be, nobody makes any...

    Tory candidate Philip Lardner suspended for gay comment

    http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk_politics/election_2010/scotland/8647206.stm The thought police strike again. Personally I see nothing wrong with his comments. I guess he just doesn't fit in with politics because he is honest about his beliefs.

    Losing 2 wheels at 200MPH

    Was sent a link to this video by a friend. From practice for the Chinese GP. I'm baffled as to how it could happen. http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/motorsport/formula_one/8624282.stm

    Four RAF men on smuggling charges

    I think this is probably a result of the smuggling that had plenty of publicity earlier in the year. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/8402397.stm

    P46 completion

    I have just started my new job in civvy street and need some advice on completion of my P46 (I haven't received my P45 from the RAF yet). Is my pension that I am now (hopefully) receiving considered to be an occupational pension. My feeling is that I would have to declare it so that I can be...

    Rotary Experience?

    I'm currently in the process of looking for a job as I am on the brink of leaving the RAF. A couple of jobs that I am interested in ask for 'rotary experience'. For all these positions I fit all the criteria that they ask except for the rotaery experience part, so my question to anybody with...

    Save on your supermarket shop

    Just stumbled across this site and it looks pretty good for deciding where to go for your supermarket shop. It also lists all the offers that the major supermarkets are doing. Had a little play with it and realised that I could save £££ by shopping around a little. It also suggests changes to...

    Thunder - 20 Years and Out

    Well, on of my favourite bands of all time have decided to call it a day after 20 years. On Saturday night I was lucky enough to be one of the thousands in a packed, sold out Hammersmith Apollo for the last show on Thunder's last tour before calling it a day. They have a couple of festival...

    Download Festival 2009 (Sunday)

    Sunday at Download Festival was billed as 'Classic Rock Sunday' and for an ageing rocker like myself, this was sure to be the best day of the weekend. The only problem was that there were too many good bands on the bill, so there was a lot of running between stages and a few sets missed that I...

    Download Festival 2009 (Saturday)

    If Sunday at Download Festival was being billed as their Classic Rock Day, the Staurday was probably what would be considered as the Metal as fcuk day. With the likes of Five Finger Death Punch, Devildriver and Hatebreed on the main stage, it was, on paper probably the worst of the days for an...

    Download Festival 2009 (Friday)

    I reviewed Download Festival last year, and it proved to be fairly popular, so I decided that I would repeat it again this year. My review is based totally on my enjoyment of the bands I watched, so a band could put on a good live show, but if I don’t enjoy their music then they are unlikely to...
