Amy Winehouse at Bestival

Having lived on the Isle of Wight for some years I can say that the Bestival at Robin Hill rocks.

Whether it does so this year to the ever raspier tones of Amy Winehouse is another matter. Having just been made aware that Amy has blown out of the Rock En Seine show in Paris due to an unspecified 'illness', doubts now exist as to her ability to recover sufficiently in time to make the world's most expensive (per mile) ferry journey to the IoW.

Assuming that there is enough change in her purse after packing her 'medicine' and paying for her ticket, she may want to pop into Superdrug in Newport and pick up a little something for that irritating little zit she has between her scalp and her neck.
