Off to the Big Green Gathering.
I am off tomorrow to the [Big Green Gathering](http://www.big-green-gathering.com/index.php?pageid=1), near Cheddar in Somerset, so tomorrow morning’s post will be the last until Monday. Thankfully the weather forecast looks good and like it won’t be the Big Brown Gathering which a week or so ago it looked like it might be. The BGG is rather wonderful, and is Europe’s biggest Green event, 5 days of talks, music, workshops, films, food, and all sorts of wonderful things, all powered by renewable energy. If you are going and are interested in such things, I am giving two talks in the Permaculture area, one on Friday at 4pm, and one on Sunday at 12.15pm. See you there!

Hi Rob,
I was wondering whether you managed to see a group called Tymon Dogg & The Quikening at the Big Green Gathering festival on August 2nd or 3rd. I run a Tymon Dogg website at http://www.tymondogg.net and was hoping you might be able to share a memory of catching the band’s performance if you did happen to. Any help would be much appreciated.
P.S. – Tymon usually plays violin or sometimes a triangle harp on stage.
Thanks,
Ryan

Sorry, can’t help there! I only got to see a few bands, between giving talks and looking after the kids I only saw four of five bands. Highlights for me were The Egg who were brilliant, a Bristol band calle Bizali, who I loved, Sieze the Day who made me cry, Gadjo and the Three Daft Monkeys. I’m sure Tymon was wonderful though!
