This is going to be one of those days where without any previous intention this is going to be a full diary. Today is the celebration of Samhein otherwise known as Halloween and we set off early to go to Glastonbury to enjoy the wonderful weather, the warmth, the sun, and the amazing people who turn up on these occasions.
