Wonderful, wonderful festival, and none more Word, no? This was my fourth one and it just gets better. The music - Beirut, Joanna Newsom, Okkervil River, Gruff Rhys, Lykke Li, Josh T Pearson, JOHN GRANT and dozens of smaller delights to be uncovered. Such a beautiful setting - Tune-Yards going gooey over baby peacocks was a highlight. Stunning food as always (yay for PieMinister, Goan fish curry and the Somerset Cider Bus). Loads of family-friendly activities, and Pucket looked like fun, but with that line-up who has the time?

The capacity has increased slightly but the addition of the Woods stage, the disco under the stars and the Tipi tent marquee meant it could more than cope. Plus, after tales of declining ticket sales nationwide, good on Simon and Sofia for bucking the trend.

Oh, and John Grant.. I didn't 'get' him before, but what a star. So charming, and genuinely chuffed to be there. The audience responded, and on a cold night it was a warm hug of a set.

Hello! Long-time lurker, occasional poster...

I will be bridesmaid to a friend in a few days' time, and I've been asked to find a reading. Edward Monkton's 'A Lovely Love Story' is a favourite at the moment, but there must be something else out there that I'm missing.

Dear Massive, you are people of excellent taste with a sound appreciation of the romantic - any recommendations? Are there any readings that have stuck with you, as being particularly insightful or unusual, or that brought a lump to the throat? What was read out at your own weddings?

A little more about this wedding - it will be a non-religious service, in a French vineyard (sigh). The service and speeches will be in both English and French, so I'm not looking for anything too flowery or olde Englishe. We're all in our mid-thirties, so Britpop era lyrics might work a treat.

Thanks!

(waits with bated breath...)
