At Taptu, Stef hauls out a heap of hard drives
Bromestock Three, Brome, Suffolk - 18th August 2007
It's about half way, calendar-wise, between Nosher's 40th and Isobel's 30th, and in a spirit of a couple of previous parties which came to be known as "Bromestock", it's decided to hold number three. A shed is purchased in order to clear out the landing; a real festival-style portable toilet is hired and a vintage Atari and VIC-20 are set up for a bit of retro gaming fun; camping is arranged and a couple of spare tents are set up and barley-straw bales are bought in courtesy of The Boy Phil and Wavy. However, it's getting a bit tense as, apart from the Brussels massive who'd arrive in the morning, no-one had turned up by 7pm. Luckily though, there was a big influx shortly after, and thus the barbeque was fired up to feed the thirty-or-so people, with a good mix from Brome, Cambridge and Belgium.
