The internet can either be a God-send or a complete pain in the ****.
I have been sitting here for approximately 3 and a half hours looking for a person who I know exists, who was mentionned in an article which I know was written and who objected to a planning application which I can’t access because the Cornwall Council site has got it’s knickers in a twist.
Ok, from this rant you may have gathered that for the moment I have changed to Plan B – although I will be happy to ditch it all if another festival comes through for me. Yes, even though this is an ‘excellent’ story, it’s not my story, it’s not the story I fell in love with and wish to tell.
But with claims of political interference at the highest level and also that threat of a high court injunction, it seems too good a story not to at least research further. Besides, as I said, I am going to Cheddar at the weekend anyway!
But my angle still has to be finalised, as does the exact reason why the festival was cancelled. I think this blog post best sums up the information that is currently in the public domain, but I’m still hankering after the official line…
Now, with this decision comes a whole evening of work – I need an angle, people to appear in the documentary and also some sort of plan of attack.
Lets just hope I get to use the opening sequence… it would be such a shame to have to ditch it.
