26th August - Third Day of Greenbelt

I met John and Fiona at the Tiny Tea tent this morning and sat with them whilst they had breakfast. We then made our way down to the mainstage for the communion service.
I had a look at the service sheet and noticed that the first part of the service was one that Chris from Nexus/Sanctus had used when he led worship at our church a couple of months ago. The most effective part of the service was the prayers when we wrote our concerns on baloons and let them go. We decided to share communion between the three of us. After the service they had to go off to work so I went and had another cheese crepe for lunch and made my way towards the grandstand. I was hoping to get a place in the tango class but it was full up so I went back downstairs where I met Steve who used to manage the seminar tapes team which I used to be part of. He said he doesn't work at festival any more because they have a child to look after.
I decided to go to Miller's farm so I crossed the bridge and went to the other side of the site. I headed straight for the rabbits as I found you could get inside their enclosure and I took a few photos - they were really cute. I then went round the farm to see the other animals - the geese, chickens and donkeys.
Later I returned to the main site to hear John O'Donoghue's talk on Imagination - the path of the Spirit - he is an inspiring speaker. After tea I went over to the CMS tent to listen to the African Spiritual Jazz. It was great - I really enjoyed the music. After the gig there was a salsa lesson with Chuli. This was a lot busier than the one I went to last year and Chuli found it more difficult to lead it. I did have fun though.
I then went on to Last Orders for an hour before going off to bed. I found a shorter route back to the halls of residence tonight via the back entrance near Centaur.
