Our time at NFFF

We wouldn’t consider ourselves as ‘Folk Music Fans’ but we do love a good festival and good music. This festival ticked all of the boxes, plus our 4 legged children were welcomed.

As normal with my posts, there are quite a few pictures, not specifically of massive stars, but of human beings enjoying themselves. I love people watching and festivals are brilliant for this. People can be free, and express themselves without being judged. I sat and chatted to many of the lovely people in these images, and they had fascinating stories

I hope you enjoy the pictures, see you at the next festival?

Our home for a few days. Hardly roughing it.
A local group called Plaitford Common who were excellent

Another dear friend Tom, who also stewards at festivals, enjoying his downtime.
“Never mind the music mum, there’s food over there!”
“Am I going to get any of that coffee mum?”
Matt Griffiths’ Root 66
The legendary Ralph McTell, who wrote and sang ‘Streets of London’. He sounded fantastic, despite being 77 years young
There were some stunning sunsets
And lots of hats – The weather was hot
“Papa, Does I need to wear dis wet towel? It does cool me down but it’s killin da street cred!!”
This hat wouldn’t fit Alfie
A good festival for those selling ice cream
Some wonderful costumes worn by members of the ‘Joe Broughton’s Conservatoire Ensemble’
We took the opportunity to take the dogs across the road to the common and found these 2 cuties.
Lot’s of beasties trying to find what little water was around
Tom advising Anna on the Tumbling tower game
And a cream tea with cousin Sue and clan, in between acts
A lovely lady spinning a yarn
“Not that one!!!”

A lovely few days, in a beautiful, peaceful setting, with great friends and music. We’ve already booked for next year.
