The good thing about BT is it is built on chalk. So there is never any depth to the mud. It’s gonna be sunny and marvellous an wobbly and fun , as always. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glastonbury 2007 was the worst festival I've ever endured. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
