Following a rather sudden change to our plans for this weekend, my husband and I found ourselves footloose and fancy-free to do as we pleased. Never the type to waste a weekend, we took the kids along to the annual gala where they feasted upon hotdogs and ice cream, bounced themselves silly on the inflatables, smashed a few plates for kicks and spent their pennies on books and toys before heading back home to get ready for a night with their Nana and Grandad.
After dropping the kids with my folks, Paul and I got our glad rags on, went out for a spot of tea at the pub then made our way to Ulverston to celebrate ‘Another Fine Fest’. I have never seen the town so busy before, it was absolutely buzzing!
Every single bar, pub and club was packed to the rafters with people as a realm of acts, bands, musicians, DJ’s and such-like entertained the masses. A large stage had been erected in the centre of town where various artists kept the crowds dancing till the early hours, whilst booze buses and food vans lined the streets with a range of refreshments at the ready.
It was every bit like a festival, the atmosphere was utterly incredible and I cannot wait to do it all over again next year.
As always, thanks for reading. I look forward to catching up with your #TheOrdinaryMoments posts either through your own posts or comments upon this post.
