My lovely friend has just come over with his WiFi password. They are the sort of friends everyone should have. We turned up much later than anticipated so lunch was 3.30, we brought in a whole field worth of dead grass and copious amounts of washing. They are still very pleased to see us.
Greenbelt was very very wonderful. The new site is awesome, tons of space for kids to play, quiet spots to reflect and brilliant venues to house the fabulous people who make up the festival. I didn't get to talks, or hear much music, but I had an amazing time and loved hanging out with all those I met, the old friends I see but once a year, the friends from home whose hospitality makes all the difference, and the strangers encountered in the loo queue. I got to sing more than once alongside a dear friend I kept bumping into.
And not once but twice a dragonfly landed on my top and stared up at me fluttering before heading off. I don't know if it was the same one twice, and I'm still working out what it was trying to communicate. But I felt very blessed.
