"Last year there was all the talk about taking a year off, and coming back all shiny and organised" I'm so glad we didn't go down that shaky path. We now know that a different sort of Sidmouth IS possible. From viewing the camp site, I estimate attendance at 75% down but we were still offered just about all the usual events - except the Arena. And the organisers haven't lost money. I look forward to a similar Sidmouth 2006 with half the 2004 numbers which will be comfortable for all concerned. What was particulalry good this year was that just about everybody PARTICIPATED. Yes, there were fewer people at LNE but a far higher proportion were dancing.
