A Happy Solstice to all Portallers . . . The wheel has turned once again.
Drumming at the Nine Ladies last night was intense. A truly magnificent experience. 25th consecutive attendance !! No damage, no litter and no problems whatsoever. Just 300 hippies having the time of their life. Rock on . . . Blingo

The drumming WAS intense - going on for hours non-stop, which is some stamina indeed!
I enjoyed it, holding the tarpaulin over the best drummer group of the lot (the one with the snare drum), whilst trying to play cowbell one-handed at the same time... Not easy, but fun to participate. My mates had disappeared due to not being prepared for the volume of rain - it was VERY wet. I'd prefer if the police didn't have sniffer dogs there (although they didn't stop me personally) - drugs are not a public order issue but a private health issue. Better to have metal-detecting knife arch, and why is this back-to-front prioritising then? Glad the 300 hippies in the circle had fun, I guess I can be counted as one of them!

Something is not right. This message is just to keep things from messing up down the road
