Main stage

Gravity Co opening the main stage here at Spirit of Burgas

Apollo 440

Lovely chaps. Took part in the Perpetual Question! Cheers lads.

Yey Bulgaria!


These guys present a TV show for a program called 5400 - they just interviewed me and I chatted to them :)

Hello!

Salutations from Claire, Ven and Katie in Burgas. Here's a photo of us outside of the gate to the festival ready to head in for our mammoth party night! Hooray! Ps. Just met a girl with giant springs attached to her legs. Safe

What an amazing setting for a festival!

I'm going off to explore!

Spirit of Burgas festival interview

I just got interviewed for the Spirit Of Burgas website - how nice of them! I then stole the file from them - and their laptop - to give you a peak at the interview. VERY SWEATY. Sorry about that ;)

Awww

We are sending this piece of graffiti from Claire to her husband :)

Pound shop?! 50p shop!

We found a nice cheap shop next to our hotel - the Bulgarian equivalent of a pound shop (but exchange rate means it's about 50p!). Ven got some sun glasses and I'm thinking of 'investing' in some mildly inappropriate playing cards if it's an option. When in Rome!

Beach life


Hello from Bulgaria! It is so so so hot here so we have spent the morning sunning ourselves on the local beach before the festival opens. I'm probably burnt already - oops. The water here is so warm that it is actually not refreshing in the slightest! Myself, Claire and Venice (who generally gets called Ven) have been sat chatting for hours. What lovely inspiring ladies. Ven is a youth worker and spends here life helping and advising young troubled people - and has some incredible stories to tell. Claire works in a school in Exeter helping children with learning differences. They met years ago when Claire was 18 and have been friends ever since. Such lovely lovely people - hooray! We are planning on getting some lunch soon before getting changed, picking up our festival passes and heading out for some serious dancing. The Prodigy are playing later and I can't wait! :)
