Lou was still tired so snoozed while I read. Got and left about 12.15 and headed to Midsummer Common. Wandered round all the stalls looking at what they had. Lou was looking for a gypsy-type skirt that she could use under her black one. Couldn't find exactly what she wanted so we went for a beer in the Portland bar.
Had a nice pint of Redwood (can't remember who is was from) and went for more ambling. Bumped into Pete and met his lady & young Ryan.
After wandering about we got hungry so got a rubbish crepe (bit doughy and the filling was cold). Were getting some beer to wash it down when we met Martin S.
Caught the end of the set by a young lady with a great voice and then a 6 piece reggae band who were really good. TBH I was just waiting for Thy Last Drop (saw them at SIC II). They were absolutely brilliant and I ended up down by the front, though not in the steampunk mosh pit!
Wandered some more and Lou got a wrap-around skirt & I got a stripy grandad shirt for £10 ... Bargain.
Stoped on the way home to listen to a brilliant ska band (didn't catch their name) who had us dancing in the sunshine.
After getting down to some good sounds we headed for the Isaac. Met Steve, who'd been bopping to the ska band too and Kevin. Heather came in a bit later and we watched quali before the Champions League Final. The pub got really rammed and there were the usual fuckwits who came in after KO & were surprised that all the tables/chairs were gone.
A good match, if you were from Barca. Not so much if you were a Juve fan - they were down after about 5 minutes. They finished 4-0 down, with Suarez scoring, to lift the trophy yet again.
