Another Great night with The Crowman

As you can imagine we didn't get up very early after a great night last night.. but when we did surface Del did go and get a paper and while there he got more water..  We had breakfast with a read of the worlds news and there wasn't much of it.. Afterwards we decided to get out and take a walk as it was a nice day.. we walked down past the boats here at Cropredy and if you're coming this way be prepared to be at idle for about three miles....look on the bright side at least you save diesel...

We walked all the way to where the festival will be and we could see all the camper vans of the staff putting up the stage. They had just started and had put up the first stanchion and the lights were being erected, as were the camping control huts...

We had a nose at all the other boats to see who was about, and picked up a couple of ice creams on the way. We did a circular walk which took us across the camping grounds which aren't open till the Thursday, the first day of the festival.. We popped into the shop and picked up some bits but we've got to say its a tad expensive. It looks like they are out to make a killing over the coming week.. We got back to Derwent6 at 4.00pm and after a bit of a chill we got ready for another session in the evening..
We arrived at The Brassnose pub at 8.00pm and was pleased to find they did cashback over the bar with no charge (not like the shop).. Setting up was a band called Cowboy Hat & that Fuzzbox Voodoo with Carsick Nigel, that just about says it all.. the genre was, well Cowboy country, punk blues with a bit of Pink Floyd in there.. They were ****ing brilliant..in fact they were so good we wouldn't let them go home..

They played for four hours and it was nearly 2.00am before we left the pub. Fair play to the landlord Alan who let them play on, and was raking the money over the bar.. We also made a few more friends including The Crowman off n.b Water House, another great night!!!!

We crept past all the boats and we had remembered our torch this time. We fell into bed at 2.15am knackered!!
