Glastonbury Festival
Anyone else mourning the fact there's no Glasto this year?
Normally would be just dusting the mud of my wellies and packing up my tent ready for this weekend

I'm not kidding, every year I come back with a tan, last year we'd been to Vegas and Hawaii, came back just with a hint of a tan, went to Glasto for the weekend and came back looking like I'd spent a month in the Maldives! Despite the mud, when the sun comes out it's very very very hot, no shade you see apart from the big tree on the Pyramid field - can't really get 120,000 people under that though
