I had a very special meeting to go to, but first, I had time to squeeze in a listen to a great artist called Beth Rowley who was performing on main stage. I managed to listen to her last three numbers and would have loved to hear more - perhaps that's a good reason to buy one of her CDs. Here you see me enjoying listening to her at main stage.
At the end of her set, I bumped into someone who was able to give me some advice about an exciting project that I am hoping to undertake with George and Yorkie next year (you'll find out more nearer the time). I couldn't talk to them for long as I had my special meeting to go to, but we agreed to meet up in Norfolk to talk further over one of Oakley's special meals.
My special meeting related to my interesting past. As many of our readers will know, I came from Hilfield Friary earlier this year, and as well as being a member of Bears Unlimited, I am also a member of the Society of St Francis. While I love living with all the guys at Bears Unlimited, I have missed some of the Brothers from Hilfield, and especially my favourite Brother, Brother Bart. And so it was particularly wonderful to bump into him at Greenbelt and arrange a time to catch up.
I took Brother Bart back to the Bear Tent and over a Beer (sadly not Wherry) we were able to have a long old chat about all the latest news from Hilfield and all that was happening in our lives.
Before we knew it, it was time for Brother Bart to go to Compline but I agreed join him and the other Brothers and Sister for their mid day communion the next day.
Its always good to meet up wth old friends and Greenbelt is fantastic for unexpected encounters like this.
After saying goodbye to Brother Bart I decided to go back to the festival village where I met up with the others guys in the "Jesus Arms" Beer Tent, where Bris, Randolph and Traveling Moose were leading singing at the Beer and Hymns.
Love Geo and all the Greenbelt Crew xxxxxxx
