Here are some of my memories from 09. The long summer that we thought would never end. Lawn tennis with Bunty and Amelia. Maurice's school chum Henry hanging around like a tress of felled willow all holiday. Mama's headaches and Father coming down to the country at the weekends.


Henry and Maurice both bought it at Ypres, of course, and Father's never been the same.

you big meanie Ted!


Alas I won't be able to make this year's - other commitments which I can't get out of. but 2008 was awesome


But I can't say clearly enough just how lovely this festival is. Great band selection, great environment, great cinema tent - only 5000 people tops. Even the loos don't get too bad

  • 1 year later...

so 2010 then - tickets on sale, 20+ acts announced, Wilco headlining


I'm already booked and good to go. Did I hear a rumour that they might be moving from Larmer Tree Gardens? Would be a real shame if they did - it fits perfectly and if they are doing it to get "bigger" will it be the same


Anyway... anyone else going ??

    • I'm happy to report that some foxgloves are now looking great in my garden. The bees are loving them. Also managed to grow some corn poppies from seed. I've left some decaying logs in the corner so maybe there are some stag beetles there.
    • Southwark lists parks as an ecologically important space so don't understand the point. 
    • We have found 3 stag beetles in the old tree stump, and single nesting bees in the grass, so we're still not mowing it. I have taken the seeds head off the dart grass and trimmed the dead bluebells and it's alright.  
    • Back garden mowed on Monday, some of it for the first time this year.  Not a lot of interest in this grassland, but hoping for the promised rain this week as it needs it.  We use no tap water in the garden apart from conditioner tap water for the pond when rainwater storage runs out, very early this year. Purple clover, buttercups, rattle and ox eye daisies looking great in the front.  Seeds sown did not germinate due to lack of spring rain.  The meadow will be cut by hand when flowers die back, white clover will be out shortly and cutting the rest back may encourage the purple clover to flower again.  Loads of bees  Fun time is when the grasshoppers appear.
