Camping at the Shrewsbury Folk Festival. Arrived yesterday (Friday) and I have to say it's great. I'm not really a huge folk music fan, but I always find live music to be much more engaging than recorded. Just saw a singer from the north of England called Kate Rusbie - excellent voice.
Loads of things for the kids to do; my youngest son seems to have discovered an unsuspected expertise at quarterstaff manipulation at the circus skills tent. Weather hasn't been great, but it's OK. In case you're wondering how I'm posting this; free wi-fi, in a tent, at a music festival (am I showing my age if I seem impressed?)!
Anyway, I recommend it for anybody in the area next year
ETA: The singer's name is actually spelt 'Rusby', and there's loads of her stuff on Youtube in case you're interested.
