Didn't get my sketchbook out at Greenbelt as much as I did last year. Have just filled in a couple of gaps from photographs.

Our annual opportunity for some of us to meet up with old friends & new members. It was a festival with all the feelings, as ever. The challenge now is to grow hope in some very difficult situations #HopeIsAVerb

Part of a labyrinth with a fingerprint design. Squares of fabric around the edge with words on them.
Festival at night. Wooden ‘tree’ shape in the centre, marquee with lights in the background on the left and behind that lit trees. On the right, poles with green fabric ‘flags’ top to bottom in a line from the foreground into the distance.
Well @greenbeltfestival.bsky.social #GB25 you were fabulous as ever. I explored the grounds, ran round the festival site for #Greenbeltrun, took part in worship & reflective activities, was challenged by talks, caught up with friends and enjoyed the creativity of the vibing team. See you next year.
A heap of inflatable unicorn hobbyhorses int eh Hope and Anchor (Methodist ‘dry’ pub)
In the woods at Rebel Rouser. In the Ford round a sign says ‘more ready to move with the rising tides’ and I think they mean it literally and metaphorically. In the background a colourfully-decorated wee caravan and log chunks for people to sit on

Video of Sunday worship in the Glade, more people there than I’ve ever seen before - maybe 8,000? Can anyone at @greenbeltfestival.bsky.social confirm? #GB25 #greenbelt
Kids’ areas in The Margins - circus skills like diabolo, juggling and hoops. Photo shows a colourful backdrop of fabric on a screen with a large ‘Circus’ sign, bunting and children and adults having fun playing on the grass
Photo of the Glade area with rainbow coloured flags lining the walkway, and in the foreground some beach balls and a jellyfish-shaped kite fluttering on the breeze. In the background people are milling around or looking at merch in the shops.
Getting there early - photo of my camp chair in Hot House waiting for Brian Eno and Jason Singh in conversation.

About 8,000 people knotted together a massive multicoloured ribbon which was passed hand-to-hand down to the front. Photo of a tangled heap of colourful ribbon lying on the grass.
Photo of randoms tying the ribbon together and passing it on. An adult in shorts and a child with rainbow dreadlocks, surrounded by people sitting on the grass or on camping chairs.
Selfie with lighthouse. Photo of the top half of my face in sunspecs with the Palestine Lighthouse model looming behind me up into the sky

Question: #Greenbelt #GB25 people, what's the best way to communicate with spouses and partners of #clergy who may be struggling in unhappy marriages, to let them know they are not alone? And to offer the opportunity of meeting, to those who may need to be incognito?
Having John Bell leading the Quiet Communion at @greenbeltfestival.bsky.social is a mistake. It has turned what was previously a safe, calm, small space for those uncomfortable with the busy crowds of the main service into just a slightly smaller, but still crowded service with different music #gb25
A placard attached to the tent at the Hope and Anchor, which reads ‘Everyone is welcome here’ on the background of a Progressive Pride flag
Large lit letters on stage at the Pagoda reading ‘think’

Ah Greenbelt. I was onsite for about 15 minutes yesterday before someone pointed excitedly at my t-shirt and shouted “CRAB MUSEUM! WOO!”

Sunset #gb25
Really hoping I’ll make it to @greenbeltfestival.bsky.social tomorrow. Feeling a bit delicate after some Medical Stuff so not camping and might not hang around late. But I do want to hear Patrick Grant and Victoria McCloud’s talks and whatever noisy DIY punk stuff is on at Rebel Rouser #gb25
Music from my first @greenbeltfestival.bsky.social in 1979 is the soundtrack for arriving at our latest! #gb25 #home
We have left home, to go home. #gb25
A highlight at @greenbeltfestival.bsky.social will be 'Potholes and Pavements': @davewalker.bsky.social chatting with @lauralaker.bsky.social. This poem is my contribution to the debate... it'll get an airing at the Caravan of Love, Saturday 11am
