Evan’s Evenings
Ahhhhhh, and relax. That’s right, tonight is chill out night. Please all, come to me with all your suggestions for relaxing activities throughout the day. A juggling workshop is bursting the seams of the Golden Monkey Town Marquee, our Palestinian delegation are meeting in Green Turtle and body painting shall be gracing the canvas of Blue Whale, all at the delectable time of 8:30. The wRants play the Cornwallis from 8:30 onwards, doing their best to inject upbeat tones from the foundations to the rafters. Woodcraft’s own Beth Jeans Houghton illuminates FairyTrade at 8:30, shortly before an open mic night. An open mic is also running in Tillyards (mostly because I’m lazy), preceded by an excellent performance from Indigo Moon, ideal for the youngest kids on camp. Hard hitting film, A Closer Walk, projects its blend of stunning visuals and moral dilemma onto the walls of Groovy Movie, while African epic Tsotsi will be running in the cinema. Oh, oh, also, South American saga, The Motorcycle Diaries will be flickering consistently in the snug of Yellow Parrot Town Marquee. So, forget about it, relax; let all of your stress float slowly up to dissipate in our teaming atmosphere. Or whatever, you could just put your feet up and snore really loudly, I’m easy. Right, peace out guys, if anyone needs me I’ll be in the bath. (What, Evan, where is this secret bath? Ahahahahaha, you shall never know – really it doesn’t exist, I’ll probably just have two consecutive showers). On a less relaxing note, FIRE! Haha, only kidding, Well, not really, there is a fire show on Friday night, any performers please come and see either me at the office, or Johnny and (the riskily named) Ash in village 8. Also, all aspiring musicians report to the battle of the bands. Give your names to my main man Jack, or leave or note for myself or Carly at ye olde office. Big Hand were born on a Woodcraft camp, so get your hands out of your pockets, banishing all trenchant commercial nonsense to the furthest corners of County Kent. And have a go! Right all, I’m going to go to go and eat a whole loaf of bread.
