When we start our garden festival I will make sure you get a good plot for camping and plenty of nice food to eat :)<br />Thanks for reading and commenting xxChocolate is not the only fruithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07752808365022025569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8255954795850538775.post-75768720553323269262015-06-24T18:43:45.049+01:002015-06-24T18:43:45.049+01:00We took our three kids to Glasto and on the Friday...We took our three kids to Glasto and on the Friday we were hit with a biblical like storm which washed away the most of the family field. Our tent survived and we decided to stay (fools). The main stage was struck by lightning and I got trench foot. We spent about £700 on falafals!!!

If I want to watch a band from half a mile away I'd be better standing in my garden in a puddle watching the telly through the window. <br /><br />At least with Innocent and Ben & Jerry's you get some delicious kiddie friendly food and plenty of space to push a buggy.

We've been to the Cambridge Folk Festival several times, though. Last year we went as a family, including three grandchildren aged five and three year old twins. It was fantastic. I'd highly recommend Cambridge. A real family atmosphere, clean loos and showers (well, maybe not as clean as your own, but then...). And you can ignore the 'folk' in Folk Festival. The acts are a lot more eclectic these days. Martinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13494219959077922220noreply@blogger.com
