back in the jugg agane

Got back from Sidmouth to find that the DDOS on  lj was really something.

First week there was a bit of a non event as I had the squitters till Saturday and didn't do much except doze and drink rehydration liquid - having driven down from Manchester over two days while suffering. I missed the Acker Bilk concert, but that was all, and the rest was great: lots of singing, lots of stories and I am learning to play the melodeon. The torchlight parade on the last Friday night had an extra star: our Loathly Wyrm, who stole the show. miapatrick says she's looking for suitable shots of it online and I will pass on what she finds.

Had a pleasant journey back but after unpacking the minibus I am now shattered. More later.
