WE HAD A GREAT TIME, IT WOULD HAVE BEEN PERFECT IF I HAD NOT MISSED SEEING ROGER! LOOKING AT THE TELE HIGHLIGHTS IT LOOKS TO HAVE BEEN ANOTHER GOOD PERFORMANCE, THOUGH THEY ALL LOOK KNACKERED, AND ROGER’S VOICE IS A BIT CROAKY. AFTER A LONG DRIVE AND FINDING OUR WAY THROUGH THE NEW TORTUOUS ENTRANCE SYSTEM, DESIGNED TO KEEP OUT THE BLAGGERS, ARRIVED AT GLASTONBURY. AFTER WE HAD PITCHED OUR TENTS, IT TOOK US ABOUT AN HOUR TO SWITCH ON TO THE GLASTONBURY VIBE. IT’S REALLY MAGICAL, PEOPLE ARE WANDERING ABOUT, WEARING WHAT THEY LIKE, SMILING, THERE’S A REALLY HAPPY ATMOSPHERE. THOUSANDS OF LIKEMINDED PEOPLE ENJOYING LIVE MUSIC AND IT’S NOT JUST THE COPIOUS AMOUNTS OF GRASS THAT IS BEING SMOKED THAT IS MAKING PEOPLE FEEL HAPPY.

THE SILVER PYRAMID STAGE WHERE ROGER IS DUE TO PLAY ON SUNDAY IS A STUNNING NATURAL AMPHITHEATRE, WHERE 90,000 PEOPLE CAN GATHERON THE GENTLY SLOPING HILL, IN FRONT OF THE STAGE. AS THE SUN GOES DOWN BEHIND THE STAGE, IT IS A STUNNING SIGHT. THE HIGHLIGHT OF FRIDAY NIGHT ARE FAITHLESS, A GREAT GIG.

SATURDAY WAS SPENT CHILLING OUT IN THE GREEN FIELDS HIGH ABOVE THE STAGES, LOTS OF WEIRD AND WONDERFUL THINGS GOING ON, BETTER NOT SAY WHAT THEY WERE!! MORE BRILLIANT MUSIC, ROBERT PLANT IS GOOD IN THE ACOUSTIC TENT.

SUNDAY DAWNED, HAVE NOW HAD NO SLEEP FOR 3 NIGHTS!!!, IT WAS DECIDED THAT WE WOULD HAVE TO MISS ROGER, SO WE COULD GET BACK IN TIME FOR WORK ON MONDAY!!! NO AMOUNT OF BEGGING AND PLEADING ON MY PART WORKED. SO AFTER WATCHING BLOODY ROLF HARRIS, (EVERYONE ELSE ENJOYED IT, I DIDN’T BECAUSE I WAS SULKING!) WE PACKED UP AND LEFT.

WE’RE DEFINITELY GOING AGAIN NEXT YEAR!!!!!

With thanks to Goldilocks :~}
