This year i really wanted to go to Rockness. There were a few things that stopped me.
1) Money…for obvious reasons, mainly I had just moved house and I was skint
2) Babysitters
For some reason, people, namely my MUM and Laurence seem to think that it is selfish of me to want to go to a festival for one day and one night….apparently, i am SOOO selfish for wanting to do things while I am young. The fact that i might want to experience some stuff without having to wait until I am thirty means that i am not making my kids “my life”. Im sorry , i dont WANT to make my kids my life, yes they are a huge part of my life but they dont define me, I dont want to neglect my own life when for the sake of a day or night here and there which they wouldnt even MISS me for…probably wouldnt even know i was gone. I hate everycunt!

Rockness 2008 was awesome and it is such a shame that you could not go. I have taken my children to festivals since they were 10 years old and there are plenty that take younger.
At the Tartan Heart Festival at Belladrum I saw pushchairs and there are tents for breast feeding!
At Wickerman there are plenty of kids playing around.
It is extremely important to remember that children’s ears are to be protected and I am pleased to say that at Wickerman, Rockness and Belladrum I always see the youngest wearing bright yellow ear defenders.
The kids love the experience and my kids would much prefer to visit music festivals than take a holiday in Spain or elsewhere.
