I cross-posted this from Moshville Times, but I’m stupidly excited. I just booked my train ticket from Berlin to Heide where I’m staying for Wacken and went to check the stage times as they’ve started to creep up on the festival’s website. Sabaton are headlining the first full day (the Thursday) and they’d promised a “unique” 20th anniversary show. Now, I don’t know if this is a cockup but I suspect not… they’re playing both main stages at the same time.

My imagination is running riot. This is going to be incredible!

Staggeringly not hungover from the previous night (much) but suffering from lack of sleep due to the heat and humidity (more), I took the kids out for a wander in the sunshine. We took in the Queen’s View north of Milngavie then popped into Mugdock on the way back. The ladies in the café there are lovely, and they serve nice ice cream. Niamh managed to eat most of hers.
