Fantastic Car Boot Sale August 5th 2012

I love nothing more than going to the local car boot sale, some weeks end up with lots of items, some weeks nothing. Last few weeks I have been very lucky and today was no exception. There were 2 seperate sellers selling lots of Spiritual items very cheap and ended up with loads of books, few CDs, couple of Buddha Status plus some extra special items. A lovely Unicorn wall / bed throw, Tarot set which includes book, set of cards and DVD for £2 and a Colour healing set for £1. What with all these books I now have and having also just discovered the brilliant spiritual section in the local libruary think I will be reading for the next 100 years!!!
The Unicorn throw was brand new sold by a trader, I bought one for myself and couple for friends. I also have a few spare so if you would like one please get in touch.



Enjoy this lovely sunny Sunday!!

Barefoot Festival 27 -29th July 2012.

This is my first blog in over a week, got home from festival week today and its taken me until now to recover enough to put finger to keyboard!! Barefoot Festival was my first ever festival and also my first experience of camping so bought tent etc and by buying on the cheap made some errors as explain later. Left home on the Friday for the 2 hour car journey thou unfortunatly got delayed in traffic due to a horrible accident on the M1 with 2 lorries colliding. Still made it to the festival in plenty of time and what can I say it was better than i could have dared hope for and the weather was so beautiful, lovely and sunny, sat outside tent much of the time getting a tan and chilling. Its so hard to explain what the festival is so this information from their website can explain much better than me.
Barefoot Festival takes place in the sumptuous grounds of Prestwold Hall, Leicestershire –Middle England.
Now in our 7th year, this unique and family friendly little gathering just keeps getting better and better!
This is the Festival where YOU are the headliner!
A fabulous feast for your senses, fun, frolics and mayhem!
Get yourself moving with workshops in Belly Dance, Flamenco, African Dance, Yoga, French Can Can, Lindy Hop & Jive, Tai Chi, Trapeze and Aerial, Capoeira, Martial Arts, Meditation, Reiki, Drumming Circles, Circus Skills, Burlesque and much more…

Barefoot by name, Barefoot by nature!

Tribal dancers Barefoot is all about getting back to basics, getting grass in between your toes and taking time out from the pressures of modern life! Try something you’ve never done before, spend quality time with the family, meet like minded new friends.
You won’t find big fancy sponsors at Barefoot, we’re a grassroots community gathering and all profits are ploughed right back into improving the facilities at the festival. Relax, rewind and refresh yourself with a week end in the beautiful Great British countryside!
