It was muddy, not a lake!

But perhaps this was a far corner we all did not see!! Oh dear. Not good though.

This was what I mainly had issues with . . . .

Muddy feets!!!

And this was the entrance to the arena from Orange campsite.

There were areas where it was deeper, but I was way too busy trying to stay upright to take photos!!!

I dont remember seeing it flood that bad in the camp, but then again I didnt tour the whole site - I do remember a rather large flooded area (knee deep) inside the arena by the trees opposite the Bacardi Bar that people were splashin thru.

It simply cant be any worse than last year - so much rain on the Saturday - almost a biblical storm during and after the Verve set and then all the mud to contend with on Sunday - certainly gives the thighs a good work out.

My mate whos first festival it was described it has his 'Nam. (as in Vietnam)

(ps, why would the offical V Site be using Glasto photo's, makes me think part of the Staffs site must have flooded - come to think of it I do remember in the car parks some cars being flooded up to the wheels arches)

[Toooly]

Its deffo Glasto

You should remmeber that the V website does not know its arse from its Elbow. There are pics of the Fratellis playing too isn't there, didnt they play in '07??!?!

[MilkyJoe]

Yup Glasto 05!

Actually I was looking at the V site and you can upload your own photos on to it so it's probably somebody just uploading a few wrong ones.

Mental....imagine the entirely unrelated to V photos you could upload onto their website...an old lady doing her shopping, a dog sniffing another dog, Dale Winton showing Carol Vordermann how to tie a reaf knot...etc etc...

Surely they must check them first or it would just be full of filth like 99% of the rest of the internet! (or at least, 99% of the sites I visit...)

Yeah you can tells its not V from the background of the picture couldnt believe the mud last year my legs were killing me by end of the night
