Remember kids, don't take too much!

[Cooter]

Not wanting to be a killjoy but theres always a good few serious casualties of all ages down on the farm around this time of year. As overwhelming as the whole festival and its feelgood atmosphere is please try and look through this and remember what your limits are. Don't neck that extra one or two that you wouldn't do normally.

In short, look after yourself and don't end up in the helicopter!

Have a great festival and come home safely

[Redcanadahat]

Yeah, getting in the helicopter sounds like a challenge.

Good advice this especially if you are considering taking something for the first time at Glastonbury. I overdid it last year and ended up in the medical tent on Sunday having had delusions so take care!

[elbongo]

Oh my God. My expression has been twisted and now it looks like i've just called myself gay. I have officially received my commuppance. But that's the only thing i receive!!!

[Wanderlei]

There's nothing wrong with being gay, btw, and i think we should now refrain from using the term as a negative.

(not gay)

Yep - unfortunately people do very occasionally and tragically die at Glasto. Haven't looked for the last few years but here is from 2005 and before (not comprehensive).

Stay safe folks!

It is a myth that anyone drowned in 2005 (some people mistakenly associate Ben Shephard's death with the floods - he died on Pennard's Hill)

It's a festival of 170000 people. A few deaths within the last 5 years is normal.
