Well we were going to “broadcast” some bits live from the concert but there was no coverage. As promised it rained on and off throughout the evening but we managed to stay nice and toasty with our newly purchased tarp (tent ground sheet re-fashioned as a makeshift hide).
Even though I had brought along a feast of sun dried tomato bread (fresh from the markets at Wells), cold Spanish meat cuts, apple juice, cheese and cider from Cheddar and cheesecake for dessert we were far outdone by the professional concert goers. These people had tables, chairs, champagne, fluted glasses, umbrellas, a kitchen full of cutlery etc etc. But how quick can they pack up when it starts chucking it down I ask you or when you need to make a fast escape after the concert before the road gets congested?
The concert was fun despite the rain (what were they thinking – an outdoor concert in Britain?). Hopefully I will post some video of the fireworks finale soon. The file is huge though.
