We had a brilliant weekend at Truck!

This year the festival had been extended to three days and the site had been revamped to accommodate more stages, stalls and activities. We were pleasantly surprised to find that the family camping area had been relocated and was much quieter and relaxed this year.

The music was great, there were lots of activities for the kids to get stuck into and the weather was much better than we had expected. What nicer way to while away an afternoon than sitting in a field listening to music and drinking Pimms!

A much loved festival hat which actually became really handy at spotting where she was!

Relaxing in the sunshine

One of the highlights of the weekend for us was the kids music tent, and in particular Nick Cope (previously of The Candyskins), who is now known in our house as the ‘singing man who lives in the blue and white tent’.

Nick’s writes and performs his own music for children and it was great watching the kids all singing and dancing along with him. How civilised is their mosh pit!

We had a brilliant time at Truck (partly thanks to our bigger tent!) and we’re hoping that by next year Moo will be old enough to for us to watch all of the evening acts while she sleeps in a trolley.
