Greenbelt – The Art of Looking Sideways (part 3)
This years Greenbelt gave us the experience of camping in the coldest weather we have ever experienced. The temperature went down to 0 on Saturday night, Nerissa woke up on Sunday morning to ice on the tent. I think I slept for about 2 hours in total and don’t think I have ever felt so cold.
This is what we all looked like heading off to watch the London Community Gospel Choir, please bear in mind that it is August, not February!
When we finally got to the mainstage, wrapped up for a winter’s evening we then had to do the other Greenbelt tradition and queue for the loos
Dancing while waiting
Tony doesn't think queueing for chemical loos is the done thing
Hanging around and watching LCGC.
The area in front of the mainstage got too busy for the kids to be able to see over everyone’s heads so we moved over to the side where they had lots of space for dancing.
As well as the events to go to (mostly music and comedy in our case and sometimes both together – did I mention already the fantastic Jude Simpson) there are loads of displays and activities going on around the site.
Christian Aid had a tent all about tax and the cost that tax avoidance by major companies has for the whole world.
And lots of art works around the site.
