Had been at The Big Chill festival in Ledbury, England from Thursday until Sunday. Honestly, it was amazing. I had no idea what to expect, but it was all fantastic. Perfect size - big enough to remain exciting, small enough to get your bearings. Only let down were toilet facilities, but there had to be some compromise. The music was obviously the best part though. Line-up was full of big names: Kanye West, who I managed to see from the front row - some complained and said he was arrogant for being late and wasted time, but I thought he was worth the wait and absolutely amazing. Calvin Harris (the first photo is from his set) and Chemical Brothers were incredible too, even from the back. Caught Jessie J, Example and Katy B who were all great. Saw Empire of the Sun for the first time and thought their production was brilliant, and of course there were some fantastic musicians at the smaller stages.


Weather held up well, considering it was supposed to rain all weekend. Practically lived in my new ASOS coat which I absolutely love - it's quilted inside and has a shearling style collar so it's perfect for chilly evenings! There was an Alpro Soya stand right by our campsite, and so I pretty much survived on granola, yogurt and smoothies (which were all surprisingly tasty). Overall the festival was an amazing experience, and I should be returning next year. Definitely recommended.

Leaving once again for a whole week this time - off to the south of France for a bit of relaxation before returning to business as usual. However hopefully with my absence I'll get some great photos to show you. Au revoir...
