As performed by The Cosmic Sausages :)

There's a movie file to download later in this post if you're interested.

Yesterday I went to a mini music festival, the 'Hope' festival in Bodiam, Kent. It runs Friday to Sunday and was named 'Hope' as it originated near a village called Hope in Wales some years ago.

This is the third time I've been, it's very low key, hardly ever get a big name playing, but very informal, casual and lottsa fun. And we be allowed to make wood fires too, which is unusual in UK.

Here's just a few pix and then a movie file of one of our local bands, the Cosmic Sausages, doing their very own version of Anarchy In The UK.

It's 161Mb and in mp4 format. Within Windows it will play in Quicktime, Real Player, Nero Showtime; Windows Alternate Media Player and Real Time Alternate Player.

A few pix, journey down there:

Ya know what, I don't even know the name of the pub :blush:

I've been there for the last three years mostly because they serve fine real ales and serve really good food. My travelling companions both had the steak and ale pie but on Saturday I wasn't that hungry so I just had a ploughmans with Brie.

It's just outside Bodiam, which is in either Kent or Sussex, I ain't entirely sure, it's literally two minutes drive from the town centre, but it's not a very big town, more like a village.

I will do my best to find out for you Mr Feckit.

Triplex:

Glad you liked the movie footage, they're an entertaining band, I seen 'em at Glastonbury Festival and locally as well. Nothing special, will probably not ever be big, but good fun.

Anybody else viewed the video?

Thanks for dropping by :)

I'm sure I've seen you there, I think maybe have even spoken to you. I've only been going the last four years but friends of mine have been attending a lot longer than me.

The organiser was at a party I went to on Saturday, looks good to go this year but I'm not sure if I'll be going or not.

If I do - I'll say hello :thumb:

There's some more pix of Hope Here
