Day 4 - Another Festival Done

I woke up at just after 6.00am and had a couple of coffees. It was at least another 90 minutes before Jackie surfaced.

As previously stated it had been a fantastic festival. The only downside had been the expensive bar prices inside the arena. I think this encouraged people, including us, to return to our tents and vans to drink our own drinks between acts and during acts that we were not so bothered about. The effect of this was that the size of the audience watching the bands was often smaller than it should have been. On the upside, more room for us to dance to our favourite bands 😀.

I may be biased, but in my opinion the performances of the old punk bands, The Stranglers, The Damned, Ruts DC and Buzzcocks etc were far far superior to the 90’s Northern bands, Cast, Inspiral Carpets, The Farm and Soup Dragons.

The neat neat neatly packing up of all our gear and equipment was a slick affair and we were soon rolling out of the campsite at 09.30am and home by 11.00am.

Once home, we dumped all our equipment in the conservatory and Jackie got the washing on in preparation for our next adventure in just 5 days time!!!
