Reality Checkpoint

[Exulus]

Anyone from that camp/see it? I had a good "ALAAAN!" match with those guys (i think..or someone camped near them) by inspiral - they had the funniest little gazebo thing though..making it out of foil and bendy tent sticks..so precarious!

Shame not more people joined in the Alan'ing - but it was comforting that others nearby understood it

Gary is the new Alan

[Exulus]

Yeah i heard all the Gary's too - how did that one start?

[laurennoodles]

i don't know but it was non stop by my tent!

[FOTZA]

Alan is a cunt.

Hah, we all joined in Alan-ing, not a clue what it was all about, but it was amusing

[Beatmonkey]

Yea distinct lack of allaning all weekend. I did have a quick search for him once or twice and a few people joined in

That was us!

I made the flag in 2006 out of a bed sheet and some stick-on vinyl lettering. I really didn't expect it to still be in one piece three festivals later.

The Reality Checkpoint is a well known lamp post in Cambridge. We hoped to get a more substantial Cambridge camp going but I think everyone else is too lazy to walk that far down the site.

It managed to stay up all weekend as well, which I wasn't really expecting. Those emergency blanket things are a lot tougher than you might think.

It did have a bit of a tendency to flap around when the wind got up ... and the constant crinkling and crackling made it quite hard to sleep so we'll be coming up with a different design for next year.

It kept the rain off on Friday though, so we always had a dry place to sit - well worth the time it took to build!
