Helicopters have been overflying our house all day doing the London/Glastonbury run. Disturbing our quiet enjoyment of our estate but I suppose the rich & famous have to get there somehow.

Theres a bigger mix of ages at Glastonbury than other festivals. The recently introduced ready made tents and teepees (someof which are 500 quid) indicates the way things are going. Not the preserve of students but I must admit a king sized bed and my own shower and kitchen would be a nice place to retreat to when the musics over

It's fair comment re the price not being too high for what you get. As for Formula 1, I don't really consider to be a sport, more a test of engineering, but its fans are seriously committed followers. Whatever floats yours though eh.

I have always been curious - how on earth in the depths of darkness and possibly intoxicated do you find your own tent out of the thousands of tents pitched???

Best plan is too tie a colourful helium filled balloon to the entrance to your tent and then its easy to find.

Make sure you always have somethng sharp on you though to burst the balloon of anybody else who had the same idea !!!!!!!

I really cannot think of much that I would rather do less than go there. You can keep your fantastic bands, your side shows and your free love, I'd much rather be in my own tent, somewhere quiet listening to woman's hour.


I'm getting old!

the tent "left overs" at glastonbury are now collected officially by the festival organisers, and are recycled and the greater majority are sent abroad ,charities such as.africa aid and other such like benefit from these unwanted weekend "hotels'!! .
