Go mad for Womad
Last weekend we were down in Wiltshire at the World of Music, Arts & Dance Festival, otherwise known as Womad. The festival has been going since 1982 and was co-founded by Peter Gabriel, who just happened to be headlining.

Chai chapel Mr. scruff's tea tent Asian Dub Blind Boys Of Alabama issac hayes second hand wedding dresses pushing 4x4's out of the mud not caring how i looked giving away glowsticks the relaxation area the bench in the relaxation area... the smell of good healthy food curried goat the pie stall happy muddy stewards cheering up grumpy muddy stewards trying to jump when you're stuck to the floor mking friends hugging strangers.
love it.

10 years now I have been going to this great festival. Never been as wet but it didn't matter. Still great fun. great company, fantastic food and then there's the music! Thanks Charlton Park. Really loved the Aboretum-magical. Will be back next year.

Just wanted to say a big thank you to the Oxfam staff who were encouraging people to sign their petitions at Womad. They were always friendly, really cheerful despite the mud and great fun to chat to!
