If I've been quiet for the last week or two it's because as one of the festival organisers I've been running round like a blue-arsed whatsit, helping to get everything ready for Birdsedge's biggest event of the year. A Friday rock concert (a Springsteen tribute band this year); followed by a family fun day and evening folk concert; followed by a children's day including family singing workshops and our musical youth competition.
I think it went well. Friday night absolutely pissed it down and Saturday had one dodgy moment when it looked like rain would set in, but it didn't. It was cold though, and quite blustery. If the weather had been kinder we might have made more profit, but as it turned out I don't think we did too badly, though we haven't got the figures yet. When we take the bar profits into consideration I think we'll have made t least two thousand quid for the Village Hall (hopefully more).
But... I'm knackered.
And Best Beloved looks as though he needs to sleep for a week.
