A COUNTY Waterford man made a nationwide appeal today for someone to give him a hand with his bag entering Electric Picnic.

Social welfare consultant, Jamie Lonergan, said he will be arriving on the festival campsite around 6pm and will need an “innocent looking person” to give him “a hand” with one of his bags.

“I just won’t be able to carry everything myself so I need someone to carry it in for me.” he told WWN earlier. “If they can just walk ahead of me a bit in the queue and give it to one of me mates inside that would be great. I’ll throw them a few cans or something. It’s just a bag of vacuum packed clothes is all. No one will even bother asking you about it.”

Mr. Lonergan will be one of thousands of revelers making their way to the three day music event today.

“Hopefully I can get to leave the lecky picnic campsite this time.” he said. “I spent three day’s chewing the jaw off meself last year and can’t remember naughtin’! Puked me ring up all the way back on the bus and everythin’. Worst day of me life bai! Nothing as bad as coming back from a good session and seeing that fucking bridge in Waterford. T’would depress the face off ya.”

The 23-year-old said he will travel up with a friend driving a ’99 Honda Civic at around three o clock, and will meet anyone willing to help anywhere to give them the bag.

“I’ve tried carrying all the bags myself, but it’s just too awkward.” he added. “It’s just that bag that’s difficult. The rest I can manage.”

When asked why his friend couldn’t help him with the bag, he replied: “Nailers hurt himself gettin’ over a wall last night so he can’t lift anything. I don’t want to be annoying him either ’cause he was good enough to give me a lift up and everything. Ya know yourself bai.”

Mr. Lonergan can be reached on 089-897-67543. He insisted on no private numbers or texts as he hasn’t any credit to reply back.

“Just don’t say me name over the phone cause you don’t know who’d be listening.” he finished
