Saddhu Ric Capon has personally been overseeing the development of what can only be called &#8220;a fucking huge campsite&#8221; on the banks of the ley of Mose (the lake that is). In celebration of the first hippy landings in Moseley in the early 1600&#8217;s, Kumbh Moseley will be marked by a gaggle of hippies throwing themselves into the ley of Mose and by sheer force of will (and not a little earth magic) will somehow remain unwashed. Scientists remain baffled by this process.<\/p>\n<p>Hippy leaders are currently embroiled in a political struggle to see who can get the campsites closest to the lake for them and their followers. In a distinctly poor showing of the &#8220;Love and Peace man&#8221; ideals that are normally associated with dole scroungers, fights broke out after the hastily arranged Special Brew meeting went horribly wrong. A radical breakaway faction known only as &#8220;The radical breakaway faction&#8221; (RBF) became restless after they started seeing things induced by the drinking of too many of the local special, &#8220;The Fighting Cocktail&#8221; (an unique blend of Special Brew and Meths expertly mixed for your enjoyment and pleasure). Their erstwhile leader and otherwise pierced nutter, &#8220;Toilet&#8221; Mike is alleged to have started humping &#8220;Rizla&#8221;, the dog of &#8220;Big Issue&#8221; James. The ensuing fight led to the hospitalisation of a number of hippies and saddhu, conveniently allowing the remaining Judases to section the campsites amongst themselves. Whilst &#8220;Toilet&#8221; Mike wasn&#8217;t available for comment, an official spokesgimp for the RBF said, &#8220;Those cocktails give you mighty beer goggles.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Millions of Hippies are expected to descend on Moseley park this week in what is described as &#8220;The Greatest Hippy Gathering on Earth&#8221;.
