CARNIVAL '08



Three straight days of liver murkage ended with a wicked time at Carnival yesterday. Woke up Monday morning on a random one in a tent at a muddy Reading festival (no idea whose tent!), blagged a lift home, shower and off on the train. Got wasted, ate good food, saw no bad vibes and ended up skanking till close. Only annoying thing was the coppers blocking off whole area's which meant for a while you were locked in and couldnt get to where you wanted to get to.

Seems like the media love to have a go at Carnival and this year was no exception. I saw no drama's at all and yeah there seems to have been some trouble later on in the night, they could perhaps focus more on 95% of the time that went off without a hitch.
