YAY Suzy! You and your fellow festival folk rock. Good luck for the rest of the festival.

And now the question. How big do people think a badger is? I thought they were kind of like a hedgehog. Little and black and white and snuffly. Well, they are black and white and very cute but they are also the size of an overgrown wombat. My naiive assumption was smashed yesterday when a very friendly badger took refuge right outside Martin (another of my Uncle Peirs' brothers) and Wencka's back door. I swear it could have eaten Molly (their jack russel terrier) if it wanted to.

I'm back in London now and off to see 7 Brides for 7 Brothers the musical this afternoon. I will be enjoying the classical songs "Bless her Beautiful Hide" and Goin' Courtin'. And you can't stop me.
