On some nights I still believe that a car with the gas needle on empty can run about fifty more miles if you have the right music very loud on the radio”

Got a half days work to do tomorrow then go pick up the motorhome, get it loaded up and await the arrival of Don McCorleone.
Looks like it's going to be a sticky one, they've had a fair old lash of the weather down there. I've got decent boots and waterproofs so what will be will be...
It'll be a hoot anyway.

Sitting at Reading Railway station at 4am waiting for the 6am Coach is not much fun but anyway the VW is now on site awaiting my eventual arrival.... Looking forward to seeing Ali, Rich and Dave again.
This is my 15th consecutive Glasto - can't wait - bring on the mud!

Another great festival but that mud, according to Eavis the worst he'd seen in 46 years....
No matter, people just get on with it and you look out for each other. The Fri night we spent round the fire with John, Dave, Ali and our nearest and dearest was pretty special I thought. A warming nip of spiced rum, some great banter and putting the world to rights. Lovely.
Hope everyone had a safe journey home and it was lovely spending a bit of time with the AoS brethren too, joining camp with Don McCorleone, his daughter and her pals and my crew all getting on well.
In spite of the conditions on the ground and our delayed arrival we still saw some fabulous sets from Squeeze, Hobo Jones, The Temperance Movement, ZZ Top, Ronnie Spector, Blackberry Smoke, Ferocious Dog, Shibusashirazu Orchestra, Syd Arthur, a brief bit of Art Garfunkel, Mercury Rev, and Phillip Glass Orchestra. We also spent a bit of time around the theatre and circus fields enjoying everything from improv comedy to Bangra dancing and the various walkabout acts which Mrs B loves so much.
Sadly with our friends needing to be back in Newcastle for Monday am, we left earlier than usual on the Sunday and took a chance on a passing tractor to tow us out of the motorhome fields which meant we got home in time to catch Sunday highlights on the box
None of this however shakes our love for what is the biggest and best party on the planet and we'll be back to do it all again I'm sure.
