£8 day ticket? Wow -- that's almost free! I'd happily pay that for half an hour of Bob Fox. I run a festival in Canada and the work put into attracting people to the event has to be done year after year after year. It's probably the hardest component. Let's hope the glitch in the Wensleydale festival is temporary, although poor attendance in only the second year might be indicative of year one not being as good as folks had expected.
