'...while
sitting in the Hare Krishna tent, I was massaged on the neck by
a complete stranger with a vibrating Furbie.'
'Standing
by the dance tent complaining about losing my sunglasses down
the bogs (those wearing dungarees - watch out for that front pocket...)
when a girl walked up, handed me two pairs and walked away. If
you're reading this, thank you!'
'Stomping
around, ankle deep in mud, pretty much wasted, feeling sorry for
myself cos I'd just lost £30 and my boots were leaking, I noticed
somebody walking toward me, I looked up... it was Rolf Harris!
"Hello" he said, "Alright mate" I said, shaking his hand "You're
great you are", we had a little chat, and off he went. Cheered
me up no end, and the money and the mud just didn't seem to matter
any more, I had just met Rolf.'
'Walking
through the massive puddle on the path between the Main Stage
and Dance Tent in 1998 in the middle of the night and my mate
pointing out what a lovely noise the thousands of feet moving
through the water was making.'
'Wandering
past one of the stages and hearing Gomez for the very first time.'
'Finally
plucking up the courage to visit a portaloo near the other stage
on Friday night and discovering that it had just been cleaned
and you could have eaten your dinner off it!'
'The
feeling of walking through the gates and knowing you've come home.'
'Rediscovering
The Glastonbury Shuffle where there are millions of people walking
in millions of different directions, but because no-one's in any
rush you never bump into anyone or have to break your stride.'
'Me and my mate dancing in the mud to Harvest Moon by Neil Young
on the PA after Blur had finished. Not only did people not take
the piss, they joined in!'
'The
nutters at the Stone Circle letting off the fireworks on Sunday
night/Monday morning in 98.'
'Crashing
out at 10am on Monday morning in a field full of tents and waking
up at 6pm on Monday evening to discover that our three tents were
the only ones left in the field.'
'Just
generally spending three days in the company of thousands of fantastic
people all doing exactly what they want to do when they want to
do it, and getting a glimpse of what true happiness and contentment
is. Plus about a million other things.'
'After
having had all my clothes nicked from my tent whilst sleeping
one night, I was left with only the clothes I was kipping in so
I had to go shopping. After explaining to the stall-owner why
I needed new clothes, just by way of conversation, she sold me
a pair of trousers, a shirt, jumper and dress for a fiver!'
'A
man I had never met before, embroidering a little purple flower
onto my jeans in the late 80s.'
