Saturday's weather was a little more inclement, with a steady rain falling when I surfaced. Still, this did not stop the party and the site was busy. Saw The Qemists on the main stage and their blend of heavy rock'n'rollin'drum'n'bass certainly helped the cobwebs loose.
The fire show was as elegant as it was hot, with whip-crackin fire twirlin' angle grinders and a spectacular bit of sword-swallowing combined with weight-lifting (you had to be there!). We dropped into The Rabbit Hole for some live band action and stumbled across a tiny hole in the wall which led off to... well, I won't spoil it for you. Check it out at a festival near you this summer!
