Post-Reading

I got my new (three month old) Vauxhall Corsa (four-door) Wednesday evening. Took it out for a spin; it's a sweet ride. Greg came over later that night. Watched enough of Die Hard to appreciate 'The animals went in two-by-two, hoorah, hoorah' being used while hardened criminals robbest some sort of bank (it wasn't a bank, it was a big safe with lots of gold, but I don't know what those are called), then most of Dawn Of The Dead.
Then awoke at 5.30 am and, after a quick shower, went to pick up Alissa. Due to some stupid reason, Faye ended up coming a day late; I'm still not 100% on the details.
We arrived at the festival and parked in the overflow car park, we had to get a boat into the main bit. Queued for about an hour. Met people, then headed back to my car to get the last few bags... Queued for FOUR HOURS (I shit you not). After that everything was good though, except my bag fell in the river Thames and I (being the genius I am) jumped in after it without a second thought. I should probably say, it was only knee-deep, but still. I'm fairly sure that's why I have a 'fluey thing now. Although I told someone I had 'flu and they said, "Actual 'flu or man 'flu?" so I'm probably just being a pussy. I still feel crap.
The bands were brilliant, the mind-altering substances were copious and the tea was delicious. Stand-out moments include:
  • Having a private circle-pit for Less Than Jake/their set in general
  • Getting one of the best hats I have ever seen for a fiver
  • Breakfast everythings
  • Fayeski BEAT terrorising everyone at the camp with Wash'n'Go and frankfurters
  • Writing "LESS THAN JAKE" all over every person I could find
  • Singing Aiden at everyone... SUNRIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIISE
There's probably more, but for now that will do. I'll post pictures when I get hold of some, anyone/everyone please e-mail me any if you have them.
