glastonbury

We weren't lucky enough to get Glastonbury tickets this year, despite around 10 of us in different parts of the country clicking the refresh button on numerous open web tabs trying our best at 9am on a Sunday morning back in October (possibly November?).  But hey ho I'm not bitter (thats a lie, I'm totally jealous, can't go next year either so that makes it double hard), it would be OK though and I could forget about it but BBC 6 music keep banging on about how amazing it is going to be and how EVERYONE is going.  Combine that with the million (thats right its at least a million) Facebook status updates keep telling me that "we're on their way - woop" or "glastonbury here we come!!!"  Instead I have had a little delve through my old photos of Glastonbury to reminisce and am looking forward to a friends gig on Saturday, 2 engagement shoots and watching the best bits on the TV - who needs Glastonbury anyway.  I suppose if I really have withdrawal symptoms I could just camp in the garden and not wash all weekend - that may cause a problem on the engagement shoots though so maybe not!  I am also assuming that by Friday everyones phone will of died anyway so that will be an end of the status updates, he he!!  I suppose you could call it Karma for gleefully sharing my own photos on Facebook last time we went, know I know what it feels like to be the one at home.

I'm only half joking though, have a fab time all you lucky lucky people heading down there you'll have a blast, just remember not to camp at the bottom of a hill, too near the toilets and if you can get near-ish  to a big flag or other landmark so you can find your tent again when you may be a little worse for wear at 3 in the morning!

Glastonbury 2011

I know I said I wouldn't go on about it but I couldn't resist sharing a few photos from such an amazing time. The flags are amazing (I don't think I've mentioned it before!) my friends now laugh at me every time I take a photo of the flags, its become a habit. I'm almost mesmerised by them!

I'm feeling a little dazed

I won't go on about it as I know its boring if you weren't there but just wanted to share this pic (and maybe a few more later if thats OK?) and say that yet again Glastonbury was fantastic. I've scrubbed all the mud off, feel a bit dazed and am still letting it all sink in. Some of my highlights include Primal Scream, they bounced on stage and was increrdible all the way through with a brilliant small gospel choir as backing singers, Bog Boi - shutterbug and Ms Jackson (need I say more?), Jimmy Cliff, Tinie Tempah (such a cutie), a naked man on stage in the cabaret tent, Beyonce was just beautiful, the silent disco (if you are as scepticle about this as I was, then don't be - just do it, its fun I promise) dan le sac vs Scroobius Pip and also Pulp popped up as special guests. There was difinetly loads more but right now my brain is hurting so I'm off to get a coffee and hide under my desk, I might go for a walk in the rain later with my wellies on and sleep in my garden to try and re-live it.

Glastonbury Line up announced

Cannot wait! Will I see you there?

Golden Rays

As a result of this little incident, I had to put my trainers in the wash - well they didn't survive, they sort of disintegrated so I'm wearing an old pair. Not a problem except that I had forgotten about the hole in the bottom until I walked to work this morning in the rain and rediscovered it! Stupid rain and stupid shoes!

Now I know this isn't really a big deal, my foot will dry out and there are worse things in the world so not really complaining, just saying!

To combat the perpetual drizzle we seem to be getting here some rays from a warm summer eve - wouldn't that be nice.

Glastonbury!!!

was amazing again! As you can probably tell, I am a bit of fan of the beautiful flags
