Last weekend was a tale of two very different music festivals in Derbyshire - lucky for us, we were guests of the event which didn't come to a muddy premature end...
This was Elle's first visit and Becca's third to IndieTracks - a wonderful blend of indie pop music and steam trains, held at the Midland Railway Centre near Ripley.
Our Saturday was spent exploring every inch of the festival site , from the quirky church to the heritage railway museum, enjoying upbeat tunes and tasty treats along the way.
Highlights included: sitting on the floor of a steam train luggage carriage watching David Leach perform with his ukuele; taking a pew (literally) for The Hearing's ethereal set in a beautiful model church; indulging in delicious vegan ice-cream (winning flavour was the cherry) and woodfired sourdough pizza (eaten on the converted train carriage bar); spooking each other out while walking round the empty museum warehouse - and finally, not getting wet!
Of course, we brought our cameras along for the ride. Here's a little look at what E saw and B saw...
