A week to remember

Well it is Saturday night and the misty drizzle-rain is here again. I am pleased to be tucked up in this little cabin away from it nice and dry, so that I can tell you about my take on the festival so far.


I am a HAT and am thoroughly enjoying my interaction with different members of the public. Rob, Seymour and myself have had different acts depending on our mood. We have been a human fruit machine, we have pretended Seymour is the world champion at 'Rock Paper Scissors' and we have been dancing around shaking tiny maracas. 


I have also been taking photos on a sideline which will soon be uploaded to http://flickr.com/nathandainty and http://nathandainty.co.uk


The thing I have most enjoyed about Latitude is discovering new bands, comedians and performances that I would have usually been too ignorant to go and see by choice. I have also made a lot of new friends with a wide range of people and I think it is a week i will remember for a very long time.
