Hello there,


Apologies for the spam, I just wanted to pop by and tell people about this. I know some people who frequent here will be in attendance, so i thought others might be interested too......


Festinho is that perfect little festival that you don?t want to tell everyone about ? because you want to keep it to yourself?


An intimate, friendly festival in a magical setting ? the grounds of Kentwell Hall in Suffolk ? Festinho is a delicious cocktail of eclectic music, sunny Brazilian vibes, a laid-back feel and the extra feelgood factor of being 100% for charity. All profits go to the ABC trust, which helps Brazilian street kids.


You?ll find the cream of up-and-coming talent alongside more famous names across all musical genres, as well as art spaces, film screenings and plenty of Brazilian flavour with capoeira, samba and percussion workshops and demos. If that all gets a bit tiring, grab a perfect caipirinha from the cocktail bar and kick back in a hammock, or bliss out to a massage in the Body and Soul space. When night falls, get lost in the mirrorballs and light installations of the Feel Good Woods ? you?ll find the Disco Shed hidden in a glade, keeping the shedonists dancing all night long. Or just cosy up by the campfire and get some tasty locally-sourced food from the BBQ.


Festinho is family-friendly too, with a play area to keep the small people entertained, high quality camping and plenty of good toilets and hot showers.


A quirky, charming alternative to the festival mammoths, Festinho is living proof that small is very beautiful.


It'd be great if some of you could make it,


Emily x

    • As I understand it Charlie Smith did put himself forward for selection in GG but Labour members chose someone else to represent them, Liam McGrath https://southwarklabour.com/our-candidates/   It'll be interesting to see if there are other defections - surely the Greens want a drip, drip, drip of news from now to May suggesting the momentum is with them. 
    • Thanks for your feedback - we always appreciate hearing from members about their experience. The pool temperature at JAGS Sports Club is maintained at 29oC, in line with industry guidelines for mixed-use pools.  This temperature has been designed to balance comfort for lane swimmers and families. Air temperature is also monitored regularly to ensure a comfortable environment for swimmers, spectators and staff. The shower Temperature Mixing Valves (TMVs) were changed in December to improve consistency, and we hope this has made a noticeable difference. If you would like to discuss your experience in more detail, please contact us directly at [email protected] or 020 8613 6500 and we'll be really happy to help.  
    • One wonders if he would have defected if he had, ahem, held on to the leadership of Southwark and whether he felt that "Labour are no longer the vehicle for social justice" during his leadership election........my how quickly things change in the thoughts of a politician 😉 I think this sums things up quite nicely: A senior Southwark Labour spokesperson hit back: “Local residents can draw their own conclusions about Cllr McAsh’s swift move from Labour leadership hopeful to the Green Party, after he didn’t get his own way. While he’s thinking about his own career, Southwark Labour are delivering for residents.” One wonders if he will stand as a Green candidate in Goose Green.
    • No doubt if he determines to stand for a ward he will enlighten us - at least his track record is one of using this site to communicate (inter alia). I would suspect that (1) his personal views on traffic will have remained consistent but that (2) his views on local democracy and proper consultation will have as well.
