What’s the crack?

Hey, my name is Bee.
I am 27 and keeper of a 7 year old,  It is just me and Seb at home and I’m not on a wedge so i always plan ahead and keep the costs down, i’m pretty famous for being a tight arse that gets up to all the cool stuff with Seb, you wouldn’t believe how many people ask how i afford to get up to so much, its simple.. Plan.
The idea behind starting this super scrummy blog is simply to share my finds and experiences because i am forever trolling the internet for fun and mostly whackey things for me and Seb to get up too so thought it would be a travesty to keep all this to myself.

Well, i think that is enough of an introduction.

Weekend commencing 18th August.

What we did : Just SO Festival
Cost : £75 for Saturday ONLY – This is based on tier pricing, the earlier you book, the more you save. 
Price of a coffee : £3
Webpage : http://www.justsofestival.org.uk

Upon arrival I have to say, no waiting, no mad rush.. literally arrived at 09:00 (Started at 09:30) and just breezed in! No screaming children surrounding me (Actually, didn’t hear many kids cry throughout the day which was joyous considering we were at a kids festival!)  So I would recommend arriving early so you have a similar experience.
Once actually in the festival the list of activities available could easily fill this page (All included in the price – no hidden nasties enticing the kids. One of the main things I enjoyed was the fact that the ranges for activities for the different age groups was pretty bob on! They had what was called the “Tool Shed” where kids were handed a hammer or a saw (Real ones!! – Sharp too) and obviously with their adult they got to just go wild building a den, picking wood, cutting nailing.. a real sense of achievement and danger for all, Heck who doesn’t enjoy a little danger! Then there were different performances being from singers, mad scientists, acrobats and then the day was nicely rounded off with a camp fire lead by a scout leader which would have followed by toasting marshmallows however we didn’t stay that late,  we arrived at 09:00 and left at 19:00 and we honestly didn’t have a boring moment! Running over custard and running around the fields! Just an all-rounder 😊  Next year I plan on camping for the entire festival we enjoyed it that much!
One thing I would suggest, Dress up!! You will feel a little out of place if you don’t (We sure did!) Dress as an owl, fox, frog, fish… anything really, just have fun with it.
