It's That Time Of The Year Again.

Yep.  Flying to Blighty (Stansted)  in the morning.  Four days touring Kent by public transport, walking, camping, historical sites, Spitfire museums,  Darling Buds Of May filming locations like Pluckley and then staying in digs near Mount  Ephraim and going to A New Day Festival.  Its a Rock festival aimed at the over fifties.

One person who I am really  looking forward to seeing  is Uli Roth.  Former Scorpions guitarist and not far off from genius status.

Remember Brassed Off?  Here's  Aranjuez by the great man.





If you see a fifty odd your old man wearing a Kansas t shirt at the festival.  Say how do.

Wish me luck!

    Good Luck Dave and have a lovely time. I'll think of you at Standsted in the morning. It has been raining all day today. I hope you aren't bringing the rain with you. It still looks pretty dull out there.

      Thanks Rachel. Find it hard to believe there's been an heatwave in England. Hoping it stays fine for the 3 days of the festival. Thanks.

    Hi Gwil. Yes Mungo Jerry. Martin Barre was in Jethro Tull and Fish was in Marillion. I have seen them both before. Its only a small festival with a 5000 capacity. Thanks.

    Hi Dave, we are going the opposite direction next weekend- Stansted to Shannon and then on to Galway for a long weekend.

      Hi Philip. The weather is very mixed in Ireland at the moment. I believe Kylemore Abbey near Clifden has a walled kitchen garden. Have a good trip. Thanks.

    I'm from next door; Surrey and Sussex, but I know Kent quite well. A very nice part of England. Have fun.
