Nope, too far for me. Let me know if anyone is selling lemonade and how much it is!

I don't remember seeing lemonade sellers since I've been going - 1996 was my first one I think, but I'll keep my beady eye open. Chez Nous of Sidmouth fame is always there, along with a Jerk Chicken chap, and last year Moor & Coast turned up - hope they do again as the Fish & Chips were out of this world!

Well, Malinky will be there this year. We're really looking forward to it as the line-up is pretty good, and expecting quite good weather too. If any 'catters happen to wander into either of our gigs, do please come up and say hello (oooh, a real live 'catter! Can we keep it, Mum?) Bring lemonade too, by all means - I haven't had festival lemonade since Towersey 2001. All the best.

Ms Lemon - There were no lemonade sellers there - although if there had been I suspect they would have made a killing as it was soooo hot! The highlight for me was the Oysterband in the beer tent totally acoustic. Saves your hearing and people actually shut up and listen. Spiers & Boden were great in there too - well in fact eveybody was - it's my favourite bit of Ely - getting to hear all the acts acoustic. It's going back to the roots for me.

When is Baddlesmere?

Baddlesmere is 22nd, 23rd, 24th & 25th. August - although 22nd is usually just a gentle singaround in the marquee. Good camp ground and lots of lovely beer. I'll remind you about Ely in good time - honest guv!

I keep seeing what appears to be my screen name and freaking out--what did I do so horribly wrong that I inspired my own thread? Never mind, I'm OK now.

Ely is too far for me really. I heard today (at Festival on the Edge) that The Lemonade Factory were charging £2.00 for a cup of iced water with the juice of half a lemon in it, at Glastonbury!!!
