[quote="baldy"]Sounds very suboptimal. All we can really do is have the best stall we can and try push the mainstream fit, healthy non hippy lifestyle angle.
Next year we should make a point of doing a talk, lets take the fair back!

[quote="ninearms"]I'm coming down now, with the wife and child in tow. I'll make sure I wear a t-shirt with some non-hippy slogan on. Perhaps we should have a rule that no purple can be worn by any person manning the VF stall too. Hippies swarm to purple like sharks to mashed up fish heads.

[quote="xJimx"]In all seriousness though, how the f*ck exactly do the people organising this event think that this is a good idea? Seems that these festivals are just getting weirder & weirder as the years go by.

Are any London folk driving up and have room to give me a lift back and/or a couch to sleep on for the night? I'll give you a free hopi ear candling

As radio interviews go, I think the Raw Food Celebrity does a very good job here. It's never easy to make an event sound exciting, talking to a radio presenter over the phone.

The rowing machine is loaded and ready to go. The floor plan shows us near the front entrance doors with the rowing machine between us and VBB.
I still think the stall's going to look a bit bare, but just being there and talking with people is worth it.

I, or anyone who feels like it, can print off a few of the veganstrength flyers that hannibal made several years ago if needed? http://www.veganstrength.org/articles/vegan-strength-getting-big-and-strong/
