Wow…what a weekend that was. Actually, it turned into a week – just got back into town yesterday – from the festival we went up to the peak district for a few days, across to Blackpool, then home again.

But the festival – where do I begin?

Friday I was hoping to leave early evening to get our tents set up in good positions ready for the festival start on Saturday. Harriett didn’t fancy the extra night under canvas though, so she decided to have a night out in town Friday (this is where she dropped the bombshell that I was gonna be driving) and drive up Saturday morning.

This started me in a mild sulk Friday night as it meant I had to watch how much I drank while Harriett was pickled by about 6pm.

Anyway, it ended up she drove up there Saturday anyway 🙂 Got into the site about 9am, parked up and decided to initially take just the tents, set them up, then come back for the booze 😀

Great idea, only the car park we were in was about 2 miles from the arena 😐

The nearest camping area to the main arena was the red zone – Harriett decided to see if there was room for our tents in there (I was VERY dubious what with it being a stone’s throw from the arena). We did find the perfect spot though – big enough for the 2 tents, and right behind a bar tent 😆

Well, I’m at work now so I really should do something constructive…I’ll add more later – pictures too, I took LOADS of pictures…
