Who's all going, then ? 2 weeks time, hope the weather's good in the runup !!! Last year the site was a quagmire, though the weather was dry and sunny for the whole festival.

We had a great picking session on the Saturday afternoon in The Albion. Last year was a quagmire, but I don't know about the weather being dry and sunny, it never stopped raining all day on Friday! The camping field was flooded! I never had any wellies so I wore flip flops. We stayed all day in Terry Pearce's awning, picking and drinking cause it was pelting down so much.
