V Festival 2008


With a line up including Alanis Morisette, Stereophonics, Zutons, The Feeling, Scouting for Girls, Girls Aloud, Prodigy, Muse, Chemical Brothers and Kaisher cheifs...nothing was going to stop us going to V Festival. The music was absolutely amazing and it was so nice to be in that atmosphere again but looking back, I should have appreciated every blade on grass while it was there. It rained from 4pm on day one until the next morning! We are hardened festival goers who are so whimpy about camping and using horrid toilets and not having a shower, that we booked a travel lodge. It's never been so good to be dry.


Day 2nwas a complete mud bath which started with a shallow layer of mud and water covering the whole field. However, as the day went on, the mud was getting deeper and deeper. It was well over the ankles of our wellies and I didn't realise how hard it is to walk in mud! On the plus side, we lasted the whole day without falling until we were leaving and ali's boot stuck in the mud. It would have been hilarious to watch becuase we couldn't actualy go anyway so all we did was bend 90 degrees! Our boots held us in!


Amazing weekend, amazing bands and can't wait to go next year...minus the mud
