Barracks Cottage. Our final day was accompanied by non stop severe wind and rain… not a single break to complete any of the many outside BC works, which included siting and ‘post cementing’ the clothes pole in position. Completed (thank goodness) with two utterly saturated custodians looking like drowned pine martens.. (or a similar phrase). Other needed bits & bobs, plus a start to packing the car, finding severe difficulty in doing so with the wind closing any open car door with considerable force … certainly suggesting a ‘health warning’ should have been in operation!
But our tasks were minor compared to the hardy group of locals.. preparing the football area for the revival of ‘Drams in the Field’.. see notice.This storm continued through the assembly of tents, platforms and sound equipment. We salute their involvement and stamina.. and wish Glenelg far better weather over this weekend festival!
However, we must remember that "Life isn't about waiting for the storm to pass, it's about learning to dance in the rain”.
Good luck to Drams in the Field…
