Travels with my dog.

[Candy]

Yes, maybe a little extreme! Kipper is definitely more Shelley or Keats. I'm thinking 'Ode to Autumn'

 

[Candy]

Now trying to think what Joy's poem might be......... It would be happy....... Maybe something by Gerard Manley Hopkins? Perhaps 'Glory be to Dog for eating things'?

 

[Lab_adore]

We could go dressed as our dogs' characters! I would have to be quietly smart and respectable. How might other people dress?

Stealthy shoes for sneaking up and nicking stuff; wild hair from running around with said stolen goods and a coat that sheds hair on demand

I'd be in a straitjacket.

Or Dennis the Menace

 

[Boogie]

I’d be half rip-van-winkle and half jack-in-a-box if I were being Tatze!

 

[Joy]

I think I'd have to come as one of Bertie Wooster's Aunts. (THis will only make sense if you know PG Wodehouse.)

 

[HAH]

I think I'd have to come as one of Bertie Wooster's Aunts. (THis will only make sense if you know PG Wodehouse.)

But which one?! That’s key - Dahlia, who speaks on the phone “as if shouting across ploughed fields in a high wind” or Agatha, who eats broken bottles and wears barbed wire next to the skin
I’m plumping for Dahlia, the good and deserving aunt

 

[Joy]

@HAH Yes definitely Dahlia (I'd forgotten her name). The one with the French Chef who is very loud and good at getting her own way, but is basically good-hearted - Molly to a T (well Molly doesn't have a French Chef but she aspires to one...)

 

[HAH]

Anatole the temperamental French chef! She’d be a lot bigger than she is now

 

[Jen]

I’d have to be tigger I think



A very accurate representation of me and Stanners!

 

[Candy]

Well on our way to North Wales now. The weather's brightening up and I can see mountains in the distance. Excited and pleased to be going back, my mother was born in North Wales and we visited frequently as children but I haven't been for years. Just crossed the river Dee, that was always a moment of excitement for my brother and me!

 

[Candy]

Oh, that's nice! Karen has been posting on the Wild Festival site and the farmer who towed us off his field with a tractor after the last one has just posted back, wishing us a good time! We obviously made some sort of an impression!

 

[Candy]

We're here! We've put three tents up, mine and two for other people who are arriving tomorrow and we have found someone with a generator who kindly inflated my airbed for me.It's windy but dry and quite warm. Joy and I had a walk and can confirm that we're definitely in Wayulz!

 

[Jacqui-S]

Have a fabulous time!

 

[Emily_Babbelhund]

Have a wonderful visit! I love your photos and adventures. Joy looks thrilled to be in Wayulz. I could NOT do the camping thing, so I'm in awe every time I see you lounging around a tent looking comfy as you please. And occasionally in a pirate costume to boot!

It's going to be a cowboy/cowperson hat this time!

 

[Candy]

Oh yes, and the Seasalt shirt that I was FORCED to buy by certain people not a million posts away! I have to say that I love this Wild Festival thing. I've only been to one before, but today Joy and I have been greeted like old friends by people we met last time. We were struggling a bit with one of the tents in the wind and three boys, who couldn't have been more than ten really helped us. It's fairly quiet now, I can hear Owls calling and some one quietly playing guitar. Bed time now.¿
