Life in the Lost Lane
A collective of English Gentlemen

Monday, July 3

Just 10 short days to wait until the highlight of the summer is upon us.
Sometime between mid-day and six in the evening i and two of my compatriates will pass through those hallowed gates for a third year running. We will walk with guile and vigour into a *tract of land with few or no trees in the middle of a wooded area. (*please see dictionary definition of 'Glade')
It's a place of unquantifiable bliss, a place where time plays it's own game, where days and nights are measured in 'sets', and where laughter and smiles are the only currency you need. (that, and actual cash)
For those three days we can forget the world and live with freedom in our hearts and minds. We can connect with ourselves again. It's a chance to break routine and find a new rhythm. A place to stimulate your sense of humour and cast the crap of life into the deep cavernous pit of yesterday.

There are some surprises in store for our happy travellers. B has organised a 'dream discussion workshop' for 10am on the sunday. It's a group exersise where participants are encouraged to 'work through' any issues that are causing bad dreams, and where they can learn what dreams mean and how to make them 'pay off' for you in every day life.
There is also a 'Get Completely Nailed in the Day and Dance Like No One is Watching' afternoon. This is most likey taking place on the saturday from 2pm. You can sign up at the usual place.
Lastly, and most controversially, there will be a 'Psy-Trance-Dance' test. Day and time TBC. This, the only compulsory course of the weekend will see everyone grooving enthusiastically to the pounding beats, rolling basslines, and twisting, layered sounds of the Origin stage. Prizes will be awarded upon completion.

I think of it like a mini-holiday where you spend all day and night awake, dance, drink, and be merry only to return home completely knackered. It will alas, all have to end somewhere and while I'm sure a good time will be had by all, we'll be glad of our beds. :)

Hello and welcome from
Life in the Lost Lane.
