After this, the next event was another outing at the Wallingford Bunkfest on Saturday 4th September, the 7th consecutive year we had attended this festival which is bigger and better than ever after a sticky period a few years ago. We are usually fortunate with the weather there, and on another sunny day we had performances in the Market Square, on the Kinecroft small stage, and at the Dolphin, before our dance displays finished with a good set on the Kinecroft main stage, sharing dances with Ashnah belly dancers. After this all of BB retreated as usual to Sue’s for our ‘Chunkfest’ – a very sociable afternoon tea featuring some fine cakes and a huge bowl of pineapple chunks with evaporated milk. Probably the only time every year most of eat us pineapple chunks – but well worth waiting for. After this many of the party headed off to see The New Rope String Band at nearby Didcot – great fun as ever!
