This day’s got off to a fun start. Turning up to Kirsty’s who’s car I was sharing a lift in I managed to get a laugh in asking Matt who had just driven down from Birmingham if he’d remembered to bring his passport with him. His face dropped when I said this and you could see the it running through his mind that he was going to have to drive back to Birmingham to get his passport. I quickly told him that I was pulling his leg as everyone else was laughing.

Once on the island we waited a few hours for Asanaga and his friend John to arrive. Having set up our camp and finding out on who Asanga and Matt was it transpired that Asanga live in Peckham and lived on the for a time on the Gloucester Road. From this I guessed he’d studided at Imperial College and before I knew it transpired he had studied with my friend Paul Mitcheson. Such a small world.

That evening we caught a bit of Groove Armada but the highlight was seeing Snow Patrol Live. Need to go and buy their album Eyes Wide Open when I get down the shop.
