I’m Here!

At Glastonbury at last. Finished work at 4 yesterday and headed for the train. Went much better than I expected so I was put on the 4.30 train. That stopped in Reading and the managers were saying ‘if you are going to Castle Cary and standing you must get off this train’; that would have meant a yet another change at another station. So I slunk away from the door and on into the train where a nice man, who had been standing by me at the door, jumped up and said there was a seat next to him. That was lucky as later there were signal failures (good ol’ railway in Britain) so that train was quite late in.
Having said that, once at Castle Cary everything went easily – no queue for the bus, for the entrance, everything was just walk on. So once on the site got ready to find the Greenpeace field only to find Joe had come down to meet me. So off to the tent (it’s a long walk from the entrance gate to the Greenpeace field). Saw ActionAid people and Greenpeace people, had dinner and a very short stroll, sat by the fire, then sat in the big wooden seats in the garden trying to keep the idiots from pissing on the tents. What is it about people that they will by pass a loo to wee against a wall?
Up far too early this morning and am getting ready for a stroll around. First thing I really want to see is this evening. Otherwise I’m just going to wander around and see what there is to see! The fun of Glastonbury.
