They do not. The clocks go forward, I start wearing shorts. I stop wearing them to work at some point in October (although I'll still wear them at home all year round). |

Post subject: | Re: GPOYW thread |
Thanks for the comments folks, it's the sort of thing that restores your faith in humanity. Seeing so many people work together to create something for the benefit of others, and specifically those who have already been dealt a shitty hand. The lady whose idea it was, Georgie Revill, is truly inspirational, and she was at the site for the entire day last year and this year as well, for both days she spent the day moving around the site, checking that everyone was OK and asking for their thoughts and ideas. The work she put in to set the festival up is amazing, and I like to remember that for every Fucking Donald Fucking Trump in the world, there's a wonderful lady like her who has vision and drive and ambition and chooses to channel those abilities into compassion and building something worthwhile, she brought in efforts from all across the island including other charities and volunteers - and built something that is genuinely magical. It's fucking hard sometimes being the parent of a disabled child, (as is being a parent full stop of course, just for the record!), and she got that, and she came up with an idea that would give all of those people, the parents and the carers and the children and the friends, somewhere they could go and feel completely safe for a day, in an environment that was built for them, and asked the question 'What would a summer festival look like for disabled people', and came up with the perfect answer. It almost felt like we spent a day on a different planet, a planet where we all just care for each other, no one is trying to fuck anyone else over, everyone is looking out for everyone else, and the collective question is 'What can each of us do to make this the best place for all of us to spend time in?'. It's a motto that'd work well for the entire planet and our species before we incinerate ourselves in the white heat of climate destruction and/or some horrible new world war. This video is of a local band who played a one hour set (they had several artists on over the course of the day), the chap on the ukulele is a good friend of mine called Rob, and his wife is the lead singer. They write all their own stuff and generally sing in the Manx language, they were amazeballs good. They're called 'Clash Voar' and have an album on Spotify that isn't getting many listens. (Mrs Hearthly is dancing with a purple jacket on, and Jnr is carrying her bags of animals because she didn't want them to miss out on anything.) |

Hearthly, the passion with which you’ve written in support of this festival is one of the most beautiful things I’ve read on this forum. Thank you for sharing this experience with us. Mrs Hearthly, Jnr, and the animals all have some moves! |
