Beautiful Days Festival - Exeter

[Melonfish]

Anybody going?

Anybody in the exteter area tell me what the weather's been like down there? up here in the nw its been wet, wet and more wet.

can't put too many bushcraft skills to use at a festival but i reckon i'll still find time to be creative with food, possibly whittle a spoon or two and generally imbibe large measures of alcohol...

Alternating sunny and bucketing, with emphasis on the overcast.

See i can handle that, stuff my goretex into my camelbak and i'm good for the day methinks. i'll be wearing my boots regardless and if the mud's too much i have gaiters.
should be a fun weekend tho, first full festival i've been to.

Ain't wrong there. Was a good balance over the weekend down near Bude; warm, sometimes damp at night but not too hot. Still managed to get a little pinkish though...

Nothing wrong with a bit of overcast - had a proper moody sky last night and it made for a spectacular sun-set.

So what's this festival about? Never heard of it!

Beautiful days is the Levellers festival.
got some good headliners this year too, naturally Levs open on friday and headline sunday friday night is newton faulkner then the wailers. saturday is James
there's tonnes of acts tho and its one of the most laid back festivals going, they even have the river cottage canteen on site this year!
honestly can't wait.
