'It was easy to work out where these open air saloon style loos were. You can smell them far sooner than you can see them.'
The first ever Glastonbury festival launched back in 1970 in Pilton. The people of Somerset have had their fair shares of visits to the legendary five-day event. But for SomersetLive reporter Heather Pickstock, it's a new experience - she's never stepped foot on the site of the UK's biggest festival.
After all, I am nearly as old as the festival itself and, when I really focus on it, can act as a grown up and a responsible adult. What could possibly go wrong when thrown into a campsite in the middle of Somerset with 200,000 other partygoers? Clinging on to each other for dear life we followed our Glasto stalwart journo around what I can only describe as ‘Disneyland for adults.’ Pyramid Stage, The Park and Shangri-La.
I was proud on my first visit - even posted on my social media feed I’d managed to wee in one. Without using a nose peg. The first night was a challenge. I did bring ear plugs but for some reason, could still hear the noise which kept me up until the early hours.
