Well said Liz. I remember one year at Towersey when it poured with rain and half the stewards 'vanished' meaning the rest of us had to work twice as hard.

I've stewarded at Sidmouth many times but won't be attending this year, not because I'm against stewarding but because the programme of events (or lack of them) just doesn't look very interesting to me.

I don't mind standing for hours on a campsite or concert venue when there's lots of people to boss around but as none of my friends are going to Sidmouth this year I don't really want to stand around all on my own.

I'm sure we'll meet at other fstival though Liz.
