Massages at Glasto

[Vectrex]

I had my first professional massage at a festival on Sunday at the Sunrise festival. It was a one hour massage involving head, shoulders, back, buttocks, legs, feet, arms, fingers. Excellent massage. The price wasn't listed though. When at the end I asked for the price she said minimum donation £20 and to give anything else if you wish. I said make it £30 then. I would have gave £40 to be honest, but I was down to my last tenner after that and the cashback machine onsite wasn't working to get more cash. And still wasn't working again when I tried another couple of times last night and this morning. Feel a little guilty at paying £30 though, and feel I should have paid £40.

So for a one hour massage, should I have gave her more than £30 really? If so how much, £40? £50? Or would she have been perfectly happy with the £30 that I gave her, or even just the minimum donation of £20 she mentioned?

I haven't really looked properly at the massage stalls at Glasto. But at the Sunrise festival, I noticed some of them do state their price list, whilst others dont.

Roll on Glasto massages! The perfect start to the day before the madness begins

Last year at Glasto I had a fantastic massage - half hour head neck & shoulders. Paid £15 for it. Think the boyfriend paid £30 for each of his 2 full body massages. There was no minimum charge so we were really stuck on how much to give and wondered if that was enough, but she seemed happy with it.
