Between 22nd and 26th August we went to Greenbelt, a Christian Arts Festival http://www.greenbelt.org.uk/ It has taken a while to recover from the late nights, mud and portable toilets. We had a great time - look at the website to see what you missed. My highlights were Beth Rowley on main-stage, the late night Gregorian Chant service, and Simon Mayo interviewing Douglas Alexander MP (Secretary of State for International Development). The festival has a huge variety of worship, music, theatre, comedy and seminars. We were able to spend time with Ken and Lois who have recently moved from Nailsea to Cornwall - they couldn't really avoid us as we were sleeping in their caravan awning! There were more people than in previous years (25,000) which meant that you had to queue to guarantee getting into events that were indoors or under canvas. Jane and Lois were obviously determined to see a seminar on 'How to be a mature, sensible and serious Christian'. Click on the picture to get a close-up of Jane and Lois as they compose themselves for an intense seminar. P

You know you've acclimatised to a warmer place when everyone around you is in short sleeves and you're wearing all the warm clothes you own! Poor Jane...
