Subject: RE: Chester Festival (UK)
It just all went so quickly! On Thursday it rained all day, heavily and continually, while we were setting up the site, drenching us all and threatening to totally waterlog the field. As if by magic it stopped just in time for a fine and sunny(ish) festival but started again on cue this morning as we began to dismantle everything.
A couple of magic moments personally - temporarily (and unofficially) closing down the main road while a steam roller from the local traction engine rally performed a dance to the accompianment of the wonderful Witchmen musicians and secondly, discovering someone in one of the fringe sessions playing a Bulbul Tarang which is apparently the proper name of my Japan Banjo (must tell Mr Red I now know how to tune it!)
Thanks to everyone for the useful comments and warm compliments on the feedback forms - we really are trying to find some form of viable shower system

The word for this years festival - BENDIGEDIG!
