It’s far more fun to make aggressive lunges at them. Or eat a bacon butty in front of them

I'm a bit late to this conversation but the first time I went to Vappa my wife went along too. She looked around and said "sad but harmless".

But she never met Hoffy.

Don’t think she met most of the LAW members either?

My wife went to a couple of shows, she is a mental health nurse and well used to tramps smearing themselves in faeces. Even still, she was shocked at the smell.

It all depends on the prevailing circumstances. At Fram we were lovely and welcoming to all the stray sausage munchers who wandered in. Well all of us except Mr Grumpy from Essex.

I explained the hobby (with pictures) to a good, female, friend of mine and her response was
“You’re quite high up on the spectrum aren’t you”
I get lockdown, but I get up again.
