"Will you be taking the pink nurses outfit to wear xx"
It's unlikely - latex is a bit too expensive, and a bit too easy to tear. There is likely to be a fair bit of vinyl worn, but it'll probably all be black, rather than pink. |

I'll be there from Wednesday, looks like that'll be the nicest day weather-wise.
That moment when the tent is up, the sun is out, the music is playing, and you can just sit back with a beer with pals knowing you've got 5 days of fun ahead of you, it's probably the highlight of my year! |
