As I walked down the main street in Upton upon Severn a bright red post box with mice on the top caught my eye.

The mice were a delight to look at.

I especially liked the Morris dancing mice.  I do a bit of Morris dancing myself sometimes.

Next I came across a stall selling hats and flower garlands and tried a few on…

It was difficult deciding which to buy. The hats were a tad large.

I settled for a flower garland which I was able to adjust to fit me. 

I headed to the Riverside Stage to listen to the band playing there.

Jack J Hutchinson was on the stage – he is a blues rock guitarist.

I really got into the music and couldn’t stop myself from bopping around to it. The human got a short video clip of me (unfortunately the sound didn’t pick up very well on her phone camera) Here it is!

My tummy felt the need for food. I was delighted to find a Women’s Institute tent selling homemade cakes and tea. I settled for a slice of raisin, apple and cider cake. Yum yum yum….

On hearing some very fast moving music with violins I headed towards The Meadow Stage where I listened and bopped about to The Whiskey Rebellion.

It wasn’t long before my legs got too tired for bopping so I just sat in the sunshine and enjoyed the bands.

I had a wonderful time at the festival and hope to go again one day.
