How can it be? It's all over at V...

What a weekend - the music was great, everyone loved our fair trade coffee stall and chill-out tent (pictured above), and thousands of people signed our petition to make health and education available to everyone. This petition will be presented to Kofi Annan at the next G8 summit to help keep pressure on the government to deliver their Millennium Development Goal promises. So, if you were at the V Festival this weekend and you signed then thank you, and thank you to all our campaigners for spreading the word!

We also had loads of funny/peculiar/amazing entries to our how angry are you about poverty competition. If you were at Chelmsford and we photographed you then check out our V gallery now, if you were at Stafford then don't fret - these will be coming soon! If you missed us because you were hiding from the weather in your tent, then why not add your photo online? For more photos of the V Festival look out for our photo gallery coming soon.

My personal highlight of the weekend had to be Faithless live on the main stage, what was yours? Add your comments below and let us know.
