I've come to discover that it doesn't matter where you are and what your doing, your missing something huge elsewhere on site.

Still it never seems to matter, the unique, strangly busy yet relaxed atmosphere encourages me only to lie back and bask in the vibes. I mean where else can you groove to a crusty auld hippy, (the sheer embodiment of the spirit of glasto,) playing tribal music by bongo drumming on an old rubber tractor wheel whilst the chemical brothers and r.e.m play one of the best sets of their lives only one feild away.

But hey, whats the point in running about trying to catch everything. (somewhat like chasing the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow, - an imposible task,) Relax and enjoy your own festval, there's always next year to see the stuff you missed. and it looks like I'm just gonna have to go back!...

Thanks Micheal you did us (and Jean) proud once again.
