Home from our Weekend at Wilder's →[More:]As you may know, a few of us had our own English version of Bunnystock down at Wilder's this weekend at her beautiful home on the South Coast. We all had a great time, ate too much, stayed up too late and had a ton of laughs.

Lots of pictures were taken, but mostly other people's because the battery in my camera gave out, despite having been fully charged up the day before.

And we are all agreed, Bunnystock II could not possibly be better than the weekend we've just had.

This youknow is worthless without youknow...
And if Glastonbury is the British Woodstock, maybe you should retroactively rename your meetup "Glastonbunny".

I really wanted to go to this, but my sister got married on Friday. The day that the heavens opened and drenched the UK, closing parts of motorways, flooding towns and villages. We had something of a nightmare as, at about 10.30 on the morning of the reception, we realised we had to relocate the entire reception from the waterlogged marquee sitting in the partially submerged garden to the local village hall which, luckily, was free that day. We managed it in about 3 hours and only managed to crash one car - the one being driven by the groom's father. It looks like it's a write-off which is impressive for a Volvo estate. So, between that, the jewellers losing the rings the afternoon before the wedding, the fire alarm going off in the hotel we were staying at before the weeding and forcing everyone out into the torrential rain, it was, uh, interesting.

By the time the wedding happened, the rain had gone, the sun was shining and it was warm and pleasant. We had Champagne and petit fours outside and the kids ran around. After that a very nice buffet reception and lots of excellent wine.

Saturday was spent in recovery and helping to get all the hired stuff back to wherever it needed to go to. Sunday was spent in a vegetative state, but now I have the week off to help baby sit my just-under-two-years-old niece whilst her parents are honeymooning in Paris. And, my God, I'm going to need a holiday after this because she is a ball of constant energy. And then some.

So, yay for everyone in Hastings - it sounds more relaxing than my weekend, but watching my kid sister getting married was all kinds of amazing.

I think Glastonbunny has to be it.

OMG theDonF you poor thing, but glad it went well in the end.
