The Festival of Sound

We took Charlotte to her 1st music festival Yesterday. We had such a good time with friends and Family, It was the biggest event ever to happen in Peterborough with a turn out of 18,500.

Headlining were JLS

There was also Diversity (Britons got talent winners2009) and Diane Vickers (X Factor 2008)

and Alex Gardner, RD and the Score

We had this booked for month and we actually managed to keep it from Charlotte,

On the day we told her that because she had an excellent school report and amazing SAT results we were going to treat her. So when we told her we were going to take her to see JLS and Diversity we were surprised to see the horror on her face but then we told her ,her friend Leah was coming and Laura and Katie her cousins, She soon changed, gave me the whole head wobble and hip shake " I am soo going to that"

18,500 people turned out for this, It was a great day.

Behind the big tower in the middle was a BIG screen so the 9 of us sat down on our picnic blankets up by that so we could see the stage and the big screen and had a relaxing couple of hours stiitng chatting and listening to the support acts, then as diversity came on we watched them from the stage and Mark took Charlotte as close as he could so she got to see them on stage

Then that was it time to pack up and find your Spot, we actually got a good spot just behind were everyone is packed in like sardines and we had a good view and room to move, It was hard for the kids to see but wee took it in turns picking them up but about half way through the were happy just dancing around......

That gave me a chance to go back a few years.

SCCCRRRREEEEAAAAAMMMMM!!!!!!!

SCREEEEEEAAAAAAAMMMM!!!!!

I Love Concerts, They were soo good they put on a show, flashed a bit of chest and Sang really well

SCCCCRRREEEEEEAAAAM!!!!!!!!

"Mum why do the crowd keep screaming and you????"

"It shows them how much you like them, the loader the scream the more you like them"

Charlotte just looked at me as if to say Your Mad!!!!

SCREEEAAA......POP

mmmmmm

SCREAAAA......

SCREaaa....

OPPPs I Think I might have screamed a bit too much, felt throat go pop now cant shout, ohh well sign of a good night me thinks, it was now dark the stage lights looking good kids dancing and the parents having a singalong and a sway.....because we all knew the words even if they were not going to admit it lol

I must say the kids all did well we got there at 16:00 and did not get back to car till about 23:00 and there was very little moaning and snipping

We came home to a sleeping Sarah and Harry who had been taken out for the day THANKS AGAIN JULIE Charlotte had fell asleep in the car and Mark carried her up so all in all a good day and no one woke up till 7:30 the next day so even better!
