Fruitstock

A long hot festival weekend!
We went to Fruitstock yesterday and today, the festival organised by Innocent drinks. The event was bigger and better than ever this year. We listened to bands, ate pies, drank cold beer and smoothies, knitted and tasted wine. What's not to like?

My favourite band was the Mighty Zulu Nation Theatre Company from South Africa, who performed a singing and dancing spectacular, with lots of audience participation.



The Innocent vans are worth seeing. As well as horns and eyelashes that you can see in the picture, this van has a tail and udders that you can't!



Innocent had a knitting relaxation area where they were asking people to knit bobble hats for the drinks for winter. I kicked out three, but have handed them in, so can't post a pic. I hoped to meet Kerrie from Hipknits there, but she wasn't there today. I may manage a couple more hats and post them later.

We also dropped in at the Shoreditch Festival, where we saw another mechanical elephant.



And finally, back this evening for SnB in the park! Phew, I'm exhausted!
