Each year the school hosts 'Shouldhamberry' the Norfolk alternative to Glastonbury. Well, West Norfolk's Glasto. Ok, it's really just for the school but there's music, a BBQ, a beer tent and camping; very little mud and proper loos. For parents the biggest upside is being able to let the children run free for a few hours as it's all within school grounds and is totally familiar to them. It gets the thumbs up from me.
Unlike Glastonbury the live act, singular, is unknown, and in all honesty unlikely to hit the Pyramid stage any time soon. The beer tent houses beer - nothing else - not even a sherry for the ladies. It's ok, I was driving anyway.
No wellies, no sign of Jagger or the boys from Sheffield, no queuing for the loo or anything for that matter. I did hear a rendition of Get Lucky that I'd never heard before, and will almost certainly never hear again. For that reason alone, it's pretty unique.
