  • apres vanfest

    well, that was vanfest… friday night get packed and headup to the malvern hills, wreathed in mist and rainclouds. unload the gear and set up the stall inside one of the huge sheds there… due to an administrative cockup (i forgot…) we had to take whatever space there was left tp trade and ended up…
