Anyone doing Glastonbury straight and sober?

Having read a few threads recently where both cider drinking and various forms of narcotic taking has been mentioned, I just wondered if anyone else will be attending the whole of this year's festival in a completely straight and sober state?
I am and am worried about being alone in my cider & drug free haze?

Friends of ours dont drink (etc) so will be straighjt and sobre, theres a real family vibe around aswell so you'll be fine, if your mates are anything like mine, they wont get to smashed so will be good company anyway
hope you have a ball.

You are not alone
I am not a drinker and haven't partaken in the reefer for some time. Unless I get in with the wrong (or right) crowd next week I will also be in complete control of my senses, what little I have of them
I am hoping that I will be able to get by on redbull (ar Asda's cheapo version) and still have a great time

I'm sober most of the time, usually I have a few drinks a couple of evenings to get tipsy, but I don't do drugs & drinking too alcohol makes me wee too much, which is just a ball-ache! Personally, I don't think I'd enjoy it as much if I got wasted & had horrible hangovers to deal with.

Ar - I had not thought about Red Bull! I'm desperate not to miss out on the late night activities this year as Trash City was such a smash last however was worried about 'staying the distance'. I feel a can or two of the Taurine / Caffeine laced (while hideiously tasting) drink may be in order! Thanks for the tip

S'not my usual state, but I'm likely to be straight & sober this year (well relatively so) because I'll be on my own with 3 kids. Could all get too confusing if I don't have my wits about me. Anyway, there is so much to see & do @ Glastonbury that I'd rather not miss out by being under the weather.

I won't be sober
Its not that being drunk is a must be but its hard to stay sober if you ask me.
But i give lots of credit to people who ither have to stay sober or infact want to stay sober becasue they dont drink good on you.

I'm not completely teetotal and straight but I only drink a tiny amount of alcohol and a little doobie, not enough to get totally blotto. I'm pretty much sober most of the time at fests and I still have an amazing time, don't let these doubters worry you

May get a bit tipsy and have a spliff or two, but other than that I'll be clean.
Hangovers make me cry.
