Festivals and Fro-lics
Finally plucked up the courage to take my two tearaways to their first festival today - I haven't been to any since having the kids and as it was smoulderingly hot today and a few friends were going - I took them both to a nearby one at Stainsby. N was (without a doubt) the wildest child there - running around with her clothes half off, no shoes, a rather smudged butterfly painted on her face. She did escape me (several times) but thankfully, there were enough of us there to keep an eye on her and it was small enough that we couldn't easily lose her. T turned a nasty shade of pink in the heat and spent the day trying to drink our beer - but still let his mum have a lovely time lying in the sun listening to beautiful acoustic music. Kathryn Williams was wonderful. I saw Asher (sure it was him) helping make a willow structure. Strange when you see characters from your own fanfic wondering about the place. I hope I didn't stare too much! Yes, the sun has probably gone to my head... :)The next step ... camping! :O

Oh FAB !!! Summer weekends are simply MADE for this kind of thing...How disconcerting, and yet, strangely wonderful, to see a character from one of your own stories wandering aboout, completely unaware !!
Summer weekends are simply MADE for this kind of thing...Oh yes, aren't they just? And that poor boy! Man, he was beautiful!I've got the babysitters in and, as it's still very warm, I'm going to spend the evening sitting in a wood.Unfortunately, no fictional characters will be accompanying me - just the hubby (and a bottle of wine) :)
The perfect way to spend a summer day ... and evening!How cool that you saw Asher! :)
The sun has been shining on Kent today, Aisling ... (((hugs)))
