Yesterday we visited Greenbelt for the day and shortly, after lunch, we'll be heading off to the Wibmeet.
I must say thst I was very glad that I didn't go for the whole weekend. The programme for this year was not as extensive as previously. There were huge gaps where I wanted to see non of the bands or hear the talks. This is in complete contrast to the last 2 years where everything seemed to conflict.
However I did enjoy the afternoon sat in front of the Church Times tent reading my book, checking the football scores on my mobile and saying hello to various Wib type people. The nearness to the Tiny Tea Tent was also a great plus point.
I had a wander around the book and music shops and spent a few pounds there. I watched the world go by and wandered off for a sausage roll at the Bacon Company - always a highlight for me.
The great event however happened later. I was sitting in the shade of the Church Times yurt with FW and a few friends. As we were talking I leaned back and heard a sound behind me. I put this down to me leaning against one of the supports for the yurt.
A few minutes later I was waving at FW as she returned from one of her expeditions to the unmentionables. As I did so the rear support of my chair collapsed. I ended up seated at a 45 degree angle with much merriment caused to those around me. Jacqui has a photo of my trying to extricate myself from the ruin that was my chair - she's promised me a copy and I've said that I'll use it as my profile picture om Facebook.
