Standon calling day one

Morning blog readers! Katie here from my tent (hiding from the rain) on Saturday morning here at standon calling. Yesterday was brilliant! The net access is pretty poor however - so updates have been at a minimum sorry!
So... What's it like here... Amazing! There is a cinema and a barbers and a book shop and a mini radio station and an art gallery and a swimming pool and a boules/bowls track and colourful wooden toilets and bars built around the trucks of ancient trees and a piano in the middle of an arena and thousands of people dressed as gorgeous lunatics! Everyone is very friendly and respectful and happy - and the setting and props and buildings and 'set' have so much amazing detail in a totally lovely way. There are families and babies and dogs here - running around like an extended trip to the park. It's like we are all involved in some giant school play thats yet to start. And I haven't even said anything about the music! Big tunes, dance anthems, punk moshing, indie ballads and more. Annnnnd... The winners are great!! Peter and Jennie are very friendly and kind and seem to be having a lovely time :)
Happy? Yes thanks x
