Well ! What a crazy weekend !Our workshop area was full of people from before 10am until after 10pm each day, although the show wasn`t huge we where the only thing for kids to do for the 3 days they where there, so I think we met nearly everyone at the festival.
I enjoyed watching the street performers doing their sets right next to us. Of special note Bruce Airhead has probably the funniest act I`ve ever seen, big respect for anyone who can do such a physical act in painfully hot sunshine.
Vinny The Silent Clown was really good, when he came to do his set we had several loud mouthed and difficult young people in our workshop area. With the most stunning application of simple mimes, he had 10+ kids sat watching him in silence waiting to be prompted to shout out a description of each mime. He was also a really nice guy and master ball spinner so I had to pick his brains on the dark art of ball spinning, he was more than happy to give me several really useful tips.
Lots of great music, plenty of nice people and a selection of over 40 real ales made for one of the best shows we have ever been to, impressive considering it is the events first year !
