Blissed out at Blissfields.

What a brilliant weekend! Tree and I took a long needed break for a few days and went down to Hampshire for the annual sojourn that is Blissfields festival. Before we went, Tree did another hair design for me. This time we did "Bliss" as that is both the name of the festie and the surname of the people who own the farm and created the festie. We usually trade there but, because we opened the shop this year, decided to go as punters for a change. Paul and Mel, who run the whole thing, invited us down early on Thursday so we could chill and catch up. Sadly, as they got short of stewards and helpers, tree and I ended up fixing the marquee and doing a bit of traffic directing. We had a laugh doing it though. The weather stayed dry and we couldn't complain. I met up with a couple of Hedge carpenters and was shown how to make a geodesic dome, my next project. We packed up on Sunday and headed home via Avebury and stopped to have lunch. Whilst there we paid our respects to Mike, whose ashes are cast in the circle somewhere. We then headed out to Tewkesbury to catch the end of the Medieval Fayre and found a couple of new wholesalers in the process. Monday was chilling time and we did absolutely nothing, which was great! Anyway, the photos tell it all...enjoy.

Hair yesterday....gone today..er..back tomorrow?

I was going to post a photo of my recent attempt to grow my hair long again. I did promise myself that I would let it grow at least two foot long, when I left the bank, but after only a few weeks I have got fed up with it and chopped it all off again. Besides, how will I be able to have the fantastic designs, that I want for the summer, with long hair. At least another half hour is saved every day in washing and drying as well. In fact, it should be every ones aim to cut down on pollution from chemicals and the waste of electricity by shaving their heads. Tree has decided to cut a labyrinth into my hair for the summer, using Eco-friendly dyes, naturally. She even suggested having the business name cut in, but that's just being silly. I shall leave you with a copy of the photo from Beautiful days festie, last year. A good year for spirals!
