Glastonwhat?
I can’t believe Mr PE is watching the Glastonbury coverage on the BBC. This is where we are very different. I’m doing the denial thing I’m very good at denial you see, it gets me through but even I find denial rather difficult when there is a TV 8ft away from my face, reminding me how good Elvis Costello was tonight.
I’m trying to write an essay, I am actually further behind than I was on my last one, I got away with it then but surely I can’t keep being lucky. I wonder how denial would work on this one. Essay? What essay?
They were speaking to some festival goers on the radio (again, something I wouldn’t have been listening to) and there was one dappy woman whinging ‘Oh my God it was a heatwave when we got here and now look at it. The weather forecast didn’t let us know (er I don’t know which one you adhere to but the BBC has been predicting this for nearly a week) and I left my wellies at home blah blah blah.’
No wait a minute, let me get this right. You didn’t take your wellies to Glastonbury? Then you only have yourself to blame honey.
Then they went to a couple of lads and all they said was ‘We are just looking for a rubber dingy.’
Ah! Now there’s the spirit! It’s attitudes and people like that that make Glastonbury what it is. I hope they found what they were looking for and my heart is with them now in that mud, sailing down the hill from the Sacred Space.
Here’s to the dingy guys!
