Sometimes nature is bad. Lucky there are nice things to make up for the badness.

Agreed. Like baby Egyptian geese and coots.

True lindsay!

Geese are also evil! Don't have much experience with coots!

Egyptian geese aren't as evil as the Canada ones. Baby coots are just chirpy and fluffy and their feet are far too big.

I see
When me and Jasmine fed the ducks last week there were some grey geese. Not sure what type they were but they were very well behaved!

Baby coots sound cute!

Greylag maybe, with bright orange beaks?

Yes I think so!

I like them. =)

They were very well behaved!
Other geese would probably be bullying the ducks for the seeds but they were just hanging at the back keeping to themselves!

Well behaved.

The coots were beating up the geese here. =P

I've just done a load of washing up and now need to make a shopping list... =|

Haha!

Well done!
Oh no, not a shopping list!!!

Number one on list - a yummy treat.

Yep, treats on the list already. Might get some more of those "brookies" too.

Are either of you (or anyone else) fans of the music at Download festival?

That should definitely be number one!

Yes I LOVE the type of music they have at download. I've wanted to go since I was about 14!

What's a brookie?

I know nothing about Download.

I've never tried a brookie but I think np described it as a brownie and cookie together! It sounded delicious!

It's rock/metal music lindsay

Oh well that does sound good - both.

They are exactly as Beckie described and pure heaven. They're in those little plastic bakery boxes in Asda.

It's Download this weekend =o I've been once, was pretty good. Although I think my music tastes have softened a bit nowadays as I don't know many of the bands any more. It's being shown on Sky Arts tonight.

I might have to watch it!
I listen to a wide range of music!
I'm quite unto pop punk at the moment, fall out boy, green day etc.
Also my chemical romance.
My music taste has not changed in the last 15 years XD

I think it's on at 9pm!

Lineup: https://downloadfestival.co.uk/lineup/#poster

Aah Green Day reminds me of school and college! I revert back to pop punk sometimes although find that I can't listen to Blink 182 much any more because of them being the ex's favourite band... >.<

But Green Day and the Offspring are still up there <3

I left during Mr Chemical Romance's set at a festival I saw them at! XD Couldn't cope for the whole thing lol.

Oooh iron maiden! And the pretty reckless!

Ah yeah. I hate it when bad memories tarnish a song/band for me!

Whaat?!
I tried SO hard to get tickets for their uk tour but they sold out :'(
My brother and his girlfriend got tickets though!

I'm watching that new Disney film Luca

Biffy Clyro are good live.

But on the other hand the Enema of the State album reminds me of my GSCE art exam which was before I met him so that one's all good still =D

And yeah, I don't know what it is about MCR that I can't deal with... Maybe they're just too emo!

Sucks that you couldn't get tickets. Your brother should have taken you!

Don't think I know what Luca is about. Any good?

I should go shopping soon, nooooo.

I'm confused. Not sure if I'm making the entire Download festival thing up. That poster says 2022 lineup...

But there was stuff on the news about it this morning being on now. Further research needed... Hm.

MCR are incredibly emo! And that's why i love them :p

He totally should have taken me!

It's about this sea creature thing that turns into a human when on the surface but they are all forbidden to be on the surface but he wants to be on the surface.

Oh noo! Not shopping!
I'm getting a tesco delivery later. No shops for me luckily!

Hmm. Weird!

Ok, I'm totally wrong. Download has been cancelled this year...!

There was stuff on the news this morning from what I thought was Donington where everyone was being interviewed saying how much they've missed festivals and how many covid tests they've all had to have to be able to be there so I dunno what I was watching but it certainly wasn't Download... although I swear that's what they said...

And it should have been LAST weekend, not this one. AND they were playing old stuff on Sky Arts last weekend.

So basically ignore everything I've said...

Kinda bummed out now, was looking forward to it!

Ah that sucks!

However there is Download Festival Reloaded on NowTV if you still have that. Best bits from 2011 to 2019. The evening isn't entirely ruined then!

And now that I've spammed this thread with nonsense I'm gonna go shopping. >.>

I do still have nowtv!

Good luck!

****ING HELLO

Nope! Same old! Very boring!
I was supposed to go to Morocco on the 12th but bloody easyjet cancelled my ticket!

stupid easyjet

I know! How very dare they!

Still waiting for my refund from them!

they definetly need an arse kicking

Definitely!
I've just sent an email because I could reaallly do with that money!

Survived!

Zombie appeared at the mention of metal \m/

Download are doing a weird mini trial festival this weekend and that's why it was on the news. I'm not going mad after all! >.>

Well done np!

Ah ok!

Thanks. =) Picked a trolley with a really dodgy wheel so I got a bit of a core workout too.

Haha! Always good!

My tesco delivery is coming between 9-10
Genuinely so excited! Is that sad? :p

Nope! Deliveries of any kind are always exciting even if they're the most boring item.

I remember Greenday etc! A bit later I got into a bit of emo.

Two news items from me:
2 people from my mum's office have coronavirus. Luckily she is working from home.
More importantly:
We're going to a chocolate cafe tomorrow.

That's what I think np!!!

Ooooh a chocolate cafe! Enjoy!

Glad your mum is away from the infected people, tamo! It's scary when people close by get it =/

What items does a chocolate cafe do? =o

I will! Apparently they do really posh hot chocolate, like single origin etc. I may even have cake...

Ninja post! They do all kinds of hot chocolate and cakes.
