Top man Ben, thank you! Looking forward to reading your analysis/recommendations when the poster drops!

You joke but I don't think they could handle it, and I reckon health and safety has (probably rightly) tightened up on what's acceptable conditions in the last 9 years. Next wet one could be interesting. If 2016 happened now, I reckon there's a chance they'd cancel it 

Yeah.  I mean, I get it.  From the glade to the SE corner is worst affected by mud, water drains down into there when it's wet and it's the last place with puddles before the place dries up every time.    I remember seeing Rolf Harris (eek!) in 2009 after it had f**ked it down all morning and it was like an inland sea, thick mud and a couple of inches or more of standing water covering about 1/3 of the standing space at the front right of the stage into the t&c field.  

I put my rucksack in the hold with 'everything' in it, with my tent and flagpole (easy, tigers - it's for our campsite!) strapped to it. But I travel very lightly and don't drink booze which makes things much easier for me. Then I take a shopping/tote bag with me onto the coach for the journey. Going by coach is fun as there's a nice buzz from all the shared excitement, and if there are some random newbies you meet, it can be great telling them-not telling them about what they're about to experience!    Ben

He must be one of the most prolific artists ever…. Yet another lost 70s album coming
