Dunno, but here's a little Glasto story for y'all while we're sharing.
Coupla years back now, me and the then missus (crazy Danish lady) were extremely skint, but there was petrol in the car so we decided what the hell, we'd go to Glastonbury anyway and be skint there. So we rocked up with a sleeping bag each and about £20 spending money, jumped the fence, and started out across the fields.
Almost immediately we bumped into one of my mates (who also happened to be living with my missus) on Pennard's Hill. Turned out he'd had the same idea as Ob, and had brought along a crap tent specifically for, well, crapping in. We said, "well, have you yet?" He was like, "Nah, we've only just arrived and pitched it."
As a result, we had somewhere to sleep for the festival and he had to use the portaloos* like everyone else.
*Note for Ob, "portaloo" is more common than "porta-potty" in the UK, probably because it rhymes with "Waterloo" and lets lazy sub-editors in the music press use "Portaloo Sunset" as a catch-all festival headline. Every ****ing year.
I would have waited a ******* eternity for this!!!!
