I am back at work after an impromptu visit to beautiful days festival near Exeter, prompted by Sian's lack of transport for Des the drummers kit. Mike offered the services of us and the volvo so we ended up getting in for free and having a debauched night (only slightly marred by the fact that we thought Mike had lost the car keys...after he spent a large part of the night bouncing between security, lost and found, information and production all around the site I found them on the floor in Sian's tent, where they had been all along). What a great festival - really nice vibe, a site small enough to not be able to get lost, well maintained loos, lots of kids running around. It was really lovely.
Saw the Pogues live for the first time ever - it was a first for all of us. They were brilliant, and it made my night when they played Sally Maclannan. Caused a bit of mischief with a very funny girl when we decided that the man in front of us was too boring and should dance. He buggered off as I think we scared him away...and then came back and stood in the same place again - bad mistake. I dared Mike to give him a wedgie but he wouldn't do it! (probably down to the fact that we couldn't work out where his arse started...). We all topped this off with much fun in the green room bar and far too many naughty chemicals, lots of cider and when we finally went back to the camping area (5.30 am) sleep was impossible.
Anyhoo, I am now very very tired and may have to have a bit of a lunch time disco nap to try and catch up.
