My main concern is, will African Head Wrapping provide adequate protection against the elements during a rainy afternoon on the Clayton End? If it will, I'll be there!

No, but it could be useful for the people behind you to balance their cups of tea on! :D

Art isn't just something to bung on the wall. I like all sorts of arty crafty things and what's wrong with having your head wrapped for fun if you enjoy it? I had a thing wrapped round my head when we were in Tunisia - you should have seen Busman in his and the long striped 'nightshirt' that went with it! :D Why shouldn't we have fun and share things like this from other cultures? Life gets far too dull otherwise.

To be honest, Doug, I'm as intrigued as anyone - from what I understand it is the skill of turning a strip of colourful fabric into headwear (sort of like a turban, I presume).

And If I come, whom will be wrapping my head, and can I have Red and White fabric and keep it for the match at FES........:)

Good idea, Wynonie. I reckon Gayle should move the Head Wrapping bash to the goal mouth in front of the Clayton End this saturday ..just think, in a few weeks time no one will be complaing about a roof as thosands desend upon the FES dressed in their finest Zulu head dress.

Every time I put a thread on about an arts event you have a go at me. Other people, on the other hand, complain that there isn't enough arts provision in the area. This event is bringing something fun into the area - just because you don't like it (or don't understand it) doesn't make it less valid.

From what I understand, I posted this thread in the Nightlife and Events section of the forum. It was to inform people, who might be interested, that something was going on. If I hadn't have posted it how would people know what was happening?

PS - yes, it was a typo about the Environmental arts going on twice.

High horse time again eh? What is it pre-do nerves? as usual a tease,

What the heck is Environmental arts? and why does it need two mentions?



It's o.k. no need to answer, I googled for it basically mini panopticons!
(from me, can't talk for tealeaf), is taken as a deep dark criticism, but you find fit to lump us together. T' doesn't need my help in criticising you, I don't need his help to tease you.

But I've got to admit you've gone overboard yet again to put together an afternoon that really does make us blokes want to dash out and join you in these enthralling events. I personally will spend the afternoon counting how many grains of rice I can push up my nose before I have to swallow, (maybe it's not what you call art but I bet I could get a grant for it!).

Now in future could you please not put T' and I in the same category, I will tolerate these none events he can't stand them, I will always tease you given the chance because I think you can, (given time), realise that's what I'm doing.

So far as spending time drinking? I am always grateful to the woman that drove me to it.;)
