Bloodstock Community

Really nice relaxing weekend volunteering at Barefoot Festival. Learnt a bit of burlesque, there was great workshops and entertainment.

Even happier as we are camping in luxury at Bloodstock in our mansion (trailer tent).

Whatever the fuck random illness hit me on Sunday/Monday has now passed, and I feel fucking amazing today.

Booked a hotel for expo

Had no idea I needed that holiday, but after it, fuck damn. That rest was beautiful. I feel so fucking good this week.

I've been feeling proper good this week. Even things that would normally have me shouting streams of expletives or in seething rage haven't bothered me at all.

Black pudding Scotch eggs exist. Someone, anyone fly me home this second.

Been working bloody hard all week swimming and pretty certain that tonight I will get my 6 stone award

They're usually deep fried anyway. I usually bake mine cos it's less of a faff and (marginally) healthier.

I'm gonna try making the black pudding variant at some point. My attempts at normal scotch eggs and nargis kebabs (made with lamb, possibly where Fortnum & Mason got the idea for the scotch egg from) have been reasonably successful.

Need to try making Scotch Pies too. Had my first one recently and it was awesome.

This morning (...afternoon) has consisted of pancakes and 90's cartoon openings. All the best kids TV was in the 90's.

Going to this dude's tomorrow while his mad landlady is away and I have made the chocolatiest cake ever.

Graduation photos arrived today and they look pretty good! Quite chuffed considering I was almost passing out from heat when they were taken...

Nah. The best was the '70s. The '90s was shite.

We had TISWAS. All you had was Philip Scofield and Andy Peters.
