Pewsey Music Festival 2009

Well it finally happened and what a super time everybody had. The bands were great, the food excellent, the beer so good we nearly drunk the pub dry and last and not least the sun was out.    Just like to say a big thank you to all the people involved in organising such a great event. You all know who you are but a special thank you to Lizzie for making it happen. Photos will be posted on the festival web site  when everybody gets their breath back but in the mean time here's a collage of the days events as a taster.

Pewsey Music Festival

Only 1 week to go before the festival (and its still raining) but after our experience with 2007 (more rain) it will certainly go ahead rain  so see you there (I’ll be the one with the camera in a plastic bag (the camera not me)).

I have also updated my web site with a couple of new photos including another panorama which I took between rain this week. Honestly the sun did come out briefly see the photos.

Relay for Life 2009 Pewsey

Relay for Life logo

Another update to my site.

I have added some photos of this years Relay for Life event held on Sat 18th July at the Coopers Arms Pewsey on my site The Home of Ken Burton.  Unfortunately the great British weather played its part in its usual fashion but it didn’t discourage the participants who bravely struggled on.  Unfortunately due to the inclement conditions and prior commitments I missed the candle of hope ceremony  and the next days events, but well done to all that took part.

Socks and Blogging here's the connection

Here is great video for all you bloggers out. There is a lot of common sense in this especially with all the gadgets and widgets available. It is certainly important to ensure that any thing on the side bar fits in with the rest of the site.  As I haven’t been blogging long  my sidebar is, hopefully, uncluttered but leave a comment if you disagree.  (p.s.The fish tank stays)

Panoramio Map on my Site

panoramio_logo Just put a Panoramio Map of Pewsey on my site The Home of Ken Burton. If anyone else wants to do the same for their area, the instructions are on the Panoramio web site (look for Panoramio API). 

As I have some photos there,  (and Google Earth), its a good way to showcase your work. However the satellite image whilst being clear and high resolution is way out of date. I would estimate that it is at least 5 to 6 years old. I only hope that Google road maps are more up to date .

BKKK The Home of Ken Burton

Another quick post to let you know that I've added some more content to  my site The Home of Ken Burton. Check out the links section from the home page for links to noteworthy pubs in the Pewsey area. Also hover over the links to see some Spry effects. (No these are nothing to do with cooking fat).

Whilst I’m posting I would like to remind you to please feed the fish at the bottom of this blog. (simple things for simple…………………)
