Film: Reading Music Festival

Photobucket
Here are a few of the film snaps that Warren had secretly developed after I left London. This little collection is from our trip up to Reading after Warren surprised me with tickets to The Reading Music Festival to see Florence and the Machine for my birthday.

We arrived the day before and stayed a little outside Reading itself on a hotel-boat on the river - it was awesome (run by an old South African couple - and on our first night after the ol' boat captain found out we were South African - he stayed up drinking talking to us and telling us his whole long life-story right up until how he came to be running a hotel boat in the middle of The Reading Countryside. We had a grand time with him and his stories haha. Then when his wife came and told him to leave us alone - we stayed up later playing scrabble, chatting, drinking red wine and listening to the rain:

it was perfect.

The next day we set off on our walk to the festival and it was a lot more of a walk than we anticipated.

Also. it rained. we got wet.
But, 
being a festival
being so happy 
being so excited to spend the day jamming together
we didn't mind :)

And the rest are a few snaps from the festival {after we eventually got there (in the end we hailed down a cab - which was essential since it took us about 15 minutes by car)}

Epic man and cup tower. 
I think we watched this guy for a good half an hour until we got bored.

Last year we went to the Reading Festival with a big crowd of (Aussie) People - and it was loads of fun - this year was just as awesome being able to jam the two of us on our own :)

I love how moody the sky is in these pics.

Also - The Warr spotted a magical something billowing in the wind - 
Warr: Che! Look at that sign. it's got peace love and happiness all over it! It's totally you. You should have a picture with that!
Che: YEAH! YEAH it IS! 
"Hey hippie with a flag on a stick! You are awesome! I wanna take a picture with you! No, not you - your flag - you just stay right there and don't move! Warren! take a picture!"
