Glastonbury?

[fluffymark]

Strange how other peoples enthusiasm can sometimes rub off on you. Even though she probably can't get there herself, Val has pursuaded me that working at glastonbury to get in free is a Good Thing, and must be attempted. And assuming I'm successful in finding pepoe to go along with me there, thats where I'm likely to end up at the end of June. Muddy fields here we come!! Hurrah! Doseybat has already shown a very keen interest. Catt not suprisingly hates tents and things - not her thing. Still, I'm a bit apprehensive about it, but I'm already looking forward to it.

Plus I've never ever done glastonbury before. What's it like?

All I can tell you are the observations I gathered from my work colleagues on the YMCA Daycamps programme last year who went to Reading.

1) Make sure you have tents near people you know, and that you make sure the most unlikely combination of people end up in the same tent one night, and accuse them all of shagging each other.

2) Help point number one along a little by making sure you're pissed for most of your time there, or hungover so you can claim sympathy from the cute bird with the dreadlocks from the tent next door.

3) Upon returning from your festival of choice, conspiciously flaunt your entry armband thing. Under no circumstances remove it. This immediately seperates People You Know into three camps, of which you are in the most superior - People Who Didn't Go, People Who Went And Took Their Armband Off, and People Who Went And Are Clinging On To Their Armband Even If It Gives Them A Nasty Rash. Enter a competition with your mates about whose armband stays on longest, and a sub-league of who can contract the most interesting skin disease.

I think that's about all there is to it... and the mud. And the cows.

Glastonbury: how to do it and stay at home (http://www.notsosoft.com/words/glastonbury.shtml).

It's fun. Even with the tents (I'm not a camping enthusiast). Also, I hear Rod Stewart is playing this year, but I hope it's just a scary rumour. *crosses fingers*
