Wickham 2026

Wednesday We set off just after lunch on Wednesday and got a very nice pitch in the steward’s field, arriving at about 1 pm. We got set up, had a little look at the farm shop, had a lovely ice cream, and then chilled by the van as it was 30° and too hot to […]
Arundel Weekend

As Sam and harriet were returning from their travels they were going to Victorius Festival in Portsmouth, mainly to see Jamie T. So Sue and I decided to go for the weekend and camp.

Highlights include comedians like Rosie Jones and ventriloquist Nina Conti, musical acts like Rick Astley, Keane, The Darkness, and Duran Duran, and the festival’s relaxed atmosphere.We had a great time but Sue was sorely missed.
