tolpuddle festival 2007

attended the tolpuddle festival on saturday and sunday, my first time. been wanting to visit for many years but have always been somewhere else. drove down on saturday specifically to film the remploy campaign stall for a gmb campaign film - this campaign is trying to save 43 factories, factories who employ people with disabilities.

on sunday i filmed billy bragg to help out with his "jail guitar doors" project. the fbu handed over a cheque for £1,300 which will look fantastic on the film.

the tolpuddle festival is good fun and quite an inspiration - a bit like the ascot of the trade union movement, bumped into many people that i know and have worked with over the years. i recommend this event to everyone.
