End of the Road 2011

Another packed few days for me, meaning my list of things I want to blog about is getting even longer! This weekend deserves a post all to itself however, as from late Friday night until this morning I was at my favourite festival – End of the Road festival.  I went for the first time last year (my blog post about it was one of my first posts!) and had such an amazing time that Tom and I bought tickets for this year a couple of days after last year’s festival.  The festival is held in Larmer Tree Gardens, beautiful Victorian gardens near Salisbury.  The festival is spread out throughout the gardens, with stages deep in the woods, a walk through the woods with a library concealed within it lit with fairy lights at night, peacocks (and peachicks!) wandering around, tipi tents and one of the main stages nestled amongst ornate old buildings.  Along with some amazing bands (my favourites this year were Wild Beasts and Midlake – amazing), there is a comedy tent (I have decided that Robin Ince might be one of my all time favourite humans, let alone comedians), workshops, and lots and lots of yummy food (Pie Minister, I’m looking at you).  We will definitely be going again next year.  Here are some snaps from the weekend…
