Following the disappointment of Latitude and its distinct
lack of hippies and the like, we’d signed up at the last minute to do Big Green
Gathering (near Cheddar) for a different stewarding group, Green Stewards. It
was interesting to see ... Read more >

After yet another balloon flight cancellation in Marlborough
we headed for the WOMAD site, near Malmesbury. Avebury is one of our favourite
places, being a much larger stone circle that Stonehenge, so we made a detour
through it. The stones ... Read more >

Unfortunately, but predictably, we got stung for MOT repairs to Vinnie. Of a list of a dozen or so faults I managed to fix about 5 of them, armed with just a pocket knife. For the rest we needed to leave Vinnie at the garage in Cambridge for nearly ... Read more >

This festival, in its second year is supposed to be like a mini Glastonbury, supporting a range of contemporary performing arts such as poetry, theatre, comedy as well as music. It’s set in a beautiful estate park near Southwold… and there ends the ... Read more >

In Cambridge we've managed to catch up with loads of friends. Kim and Ainslie, Guy, Shelagh and wee Anna, Mel, Alex and Dan, Penny, Roger, Jenny, Richard et al! Within a few minutes of arriving we were walking down Mill Road and Mel cycled past - nice ... Read more >

In my not-so-professional opinion and with full
consideration of the available facts, I’m now pretty confident that the ‘sore
toe’ (see Southampton Beer Festival) should be redesignated ‘the broken toe’.
Nearly four weeks later most of the bruising ... Read more >

The next day we had our longest
drive to date – across to Birchington in Kent to meet up with a long lost
cousin, Trevor Brook. He and his partner Irene were very welcoming and had more
information about the family than I could take in in one ... Read more >

We left Bath and headed back to Glastonbury/Street through the Mendips. Vinnie didn’t like the uphill bits and narrow lanes much. We parked up at our favourite spot in Street and did the last minute shopping stuff in Glastonbury itself. Tom was on the ... Read more >

Bath is a town planner’s victory! Lots of glorious buildings
in harmony with each other. We took ourselves on a walking tour starting with
the Royal Crescent then the Circus (where I found 2 quid yay!), then the baths
old and new. We’d spent that ... Read more >

We spent a night in a car park in Street, a village just
south of Glastonbury (and where some Bockett’s lived in the 1400’s) ready

After breakfast with Vic and Peter we headed to north with a
detour through The Wallops. I’ve always wanted to go to Nether Wallop since a
comedy festival was televised from there in the 80s (fundraising a new church
spire or similar). We then headed ... Read more >
