I'm sure you'll all agree that this year's Made in Roath Festival was amazeballs! So much to see and do, with all types of art and event, bustling like a bee-hive with people of all hairstyles (I even saw a mullet!), and pretty decent weather for most of it, too. Did you see E.T.? I missed it, sadly, as I was busy 'being a poet' in the bookmobile van, sat silently waiting next to this tealight-lit Edwardian Doll's house (I wish I could say it was lit by the memories of childhood joy! Though, perhaps in a way, it was) for the nocturnal walkers to arrive.
Post-ET-n-popcorn bicycle fun, they meandered towards me... A good 100 people or so! And I duly read out the pieces of work that I had compiled from the 60 or so poems/stories you all wrote in the bookmobile with Christina Thatcher. I read two of the pieces to you, anyway, and they will be featured in a further blog post here (hence this not being 'the end', exactly).
The night walkers continued, then, and I packed up the bookmobile, only to meet with you all again in Milgi for DJ Eclectic Mix, popcorn and hot apple punch, plus art from Kim Fielding. A fantastic end to a fantastic festival! And - only 365 (or so) days till the next one..................... Can't wait!!!
