    I didn't think you (of all people) would complain at looking at Beyonce, Aldo!

    I'm not at Glastonbury and unfortunately not watching it as much as I would like - going though all my books this weekend to decide how many I should relocate with me. I love the idea of Glastonbury - where else would you have great bands such as Elbow, The Wombats, The Chemical Brothers, Queens of the Stone Age, Kaiser Chiefs and Chumbawamba and then at the same venue, the same weekend - you can see experienced acts like U2, Paul Simon, Don mclean and Kool and the gang Even if you dislike an act - there are so many others,

    But although I love the idea of a festival - even in good weather, I would hate the reality of it. I can't do camping, mud, lack of showers, mud, not enough clean clothes, mud, can't walk in high heels because of the MUD!!

    And, I can't remember - did I mention it rains most years at Glastonbury and there is loads and loads of mud: http://www.guardian.co.uk/music/gall...074265&index=0

    But I know I would love it if I could stay in a 4* hotel right next to the festival and just keep away from the mud!! And I also so admire the people that go there, would love to just go with the flow rather than getting irritated by tents!!!

    A friend of mine use to do the security there and he said the number of girls who offered themselves so that they could sneak in the back way was ridiculous.
