I love my life. I know I grumble sometimes, and plenty of rubbish things DO still happen. But all in all being married to a talented performance artist and having talented performance artist friends is pretty amazing, and I do get to go to some of the randomest events - and that is random in a very good way - as in unexpected, extraordinary, surprising, thought provoking and plain fun.

Sunday was important for several reasons - it was TOO hot, the last day of Glastonbury, Germany beating England in the world cup - but most of all it saw the culmination of the Camberwell Arts Festival on Camberwell Green in the form of Chutney Preserves 4, Animal Fair - when you've read this go check out their blog - it will make more sense.

This is really just a quick ' photo blog' about the bits I saw, hopefully you can get an idea of the scope:

The Urban Bear has his questions answered by the Fox Witch

Rebecca Feiner and Helene Corr with  Worm Charming Olympics

Daniel Lehan presented "Snail Races" - my snail Daisy (with the red spot) lost her race after Neville took an Unfair Advantage at the start of the race - we are still waiting to hear the judges final decision. Daniel?

Frog gave several performances during the day, ably assisted by his assortments of puppets.

Dr Gerald Van Elk presents: Are You Wild Enough?

Afternoon tea at the Urban Bear Research Centre

As always there are lots more photos on my flickr pages, and I haven't listed even half the artists involved, please do visit Chutney Preserves Blog where you will find full details along with links to the artists.
