Larmer Tree festival this weekend. We have been going to this event for 18 years but this year its VERY wet.
Yesterday I was shivering in the shop thinking, "do I really want to go and get cold, wet and muddy?" Then a Tally Ho! sort of woman came in. She wanted some robust wine for a BBQ. Really? "Oh yes", she said. "Sod the weather I'm going to continue to do what I want. Just needs more planning."
So, with this in mind I donned my boots, shorts and waterproofs and had a good evening. Got up at 7am, drove back home had a shower and went to work.
I now have to do it again tonight and Sunday night. Apparently it will stop raining by 9pm.
Trying to get into the mind-set of Tally Ho lady: No such thing as bad weather, just bad planning and innapropriate clothing.
Any suggestions on making 20 acres of sticky mud into fun (that doesn't involve nakedness)

At least in the rain and mud I get to wear a big coat. Sat in the shop it's chuffing freezing!Posted 10 months ago # -

2. Wear a wetsuit, snorkel and flippers- practical, and so funny you'll probably get laid (if you are capable of disrobing)
3. Abandon, and take a bottle to Tally-Ho's barbecue (By the way, is a Tally-Ho an upper-class gangster whore?)
