Have had an amazing weekend at the Rock 'n' Bike Festival in South Normanton.
3 days and nights of motorbikes, great music, old and new friends.
The sun was so hot I think I may have scorched my fur, though the nights made up for it. It was my first time camping and was glad of my fur at night.
A full media pass meant I had access to the VIP area, as well as being able to get on the stage to take pictures.
| Saw my old friends Knock Out Kaine but also got to see some other great bands like Bon Jovi UK, The Kix and Foreigners Journey. 3 nights and two stages of live music. Still got hundreds of photos to sort through too. | |
| | There was also the custom Bike show with lots of awards given out.
Unfortunately there wasn't a category for smallest bike.
Can't wait for next year :-)

Went to a lovely reception at the Council House last night in honour of local boxing hero Carl Froch being crowned super-middleweight world champion. Cameras and TV crews everywhere so keep an eye out for me.
I even managed to get him to sign a photo for me.
Wollaton Halls lawns were full of classic cars and even buses for the Autokarna. Had a great time looking around them all. There were some amazing hood ornaments, including this beautiful British Bulldog on a 1952 Daimler.
How come you never see Bears as hood Ornaments?? If you ever see one let me know.
Also bumped into a distant relative - Definitely a speed freak this guy.
On 5th May 2013 - HRH The Princess Anne unveiled a new memorial to Nottingham's Fire-fighters In St Mary's Church yard.
Unfortunately with all the security I couldn't get a photo with the Princess or even close to the memorial that day so popped back the other day to have another look at it.
Another Beautiful Bank Holiday. The Milk Race came to Nottingham and I got to meet Robin Hood.
There were bikes everywhere which is dangerous for a little bear but I found a safe place to watch some of the races including the family race. I swear some of those children were not much bigger than me! And then I cheered on the Ladies Elite Race with the UK Olympic Gold Medal Winner.
Some friends from America are touring the UK at the moment and popped into Beeston to play. The Billy Walton Band - Great bunch of guys and great music.
And they let me play on the drums too!
Back to Robin Hood airport in Doncaster today with 'Knock Out Kaine' and Bumblebee from Transformers!
Stage two of the video shoot today - although the weather was not as kind at least I got to meet his great film star
Beautiful sunny Bank Holiday Monday and the skies are filled with the sound of BATTLE! The French are coming!
Wollaton Hall was taken over this weekend by a Napoleonic Re-enactment group. I couldn't find any relatives on the French side but met this lovely couple in the British camp.
Decided to make the most a nice day and get out for a bit. Started off by popping to see Robin Hood. I wonder if that arrow would carry me?
I then went to the University to try a bit of nature photography. It's more dangerous than I thought! Climbing trees near the lake and some of the wildlife didn't want their photos taken and attacked me! - How Rude!
