barefoot earlier

Forecasted thundery rain drove us to change plans and keep the van to trundle south to festival bliss.

Top three reasons for bliss:

• No pee-needing, dehydrated mornings putting off the inevitable as long as possible
• A doormat to take muddy boots off on and a dustpan and brush (that's me out of the closet with my over-active cleanliness)
• No 4am gritted teeth campsite-drummer-killing fantasies

On the other hand:

• No listening to the late night chat after you've crawled into the tent to be horizontal
  
• No lovely noise of canvas flapping in the wind
  
• Getting trapped by tents until 9.30am Monday was not handy for work (but there again...)
