Regardless of the state of the toilets -

I had some nice, clean, flushing ones, toilet roll, running water and soap, but then I also had some real horror toilets where 'everything' was overflowing on the floor, you couldn't even 'hovver', no toilet roll, soap or running water (to be honest though I never expect toilet roll at a festival - take my own in every time, if you do find some always a bonus in my opinion) ...

- Quite simply there were not enough toilets in the campsite.

The 'family field' where we were should have had at least 4 blocks, basically one for each side.  There were just not enough to cope with the amount of people, and as I said above, that was regardless of the state you may/may not have found them in.

Things went horribly wrong and Tony Scott has acknowleged that.  I'm sure he won't let it happen again.

We had a great time at the festival.  We even enjoyed the downpour on Sunday as it cooled us off and cleared the air.

Thanks to everyone involved in the organisation - couldn't fault the rest of it.

See you next year.

I think you might be right!

I am certainly no expert on things for rental toilets!  Found some great portaloos at Edinburgh's Hogmanay though!!

I was shocked to find that after last year's problems Guilfest had again gone for only flushing loos all with proper sinks. And I was pleased to see that this year everything worked perfectly, with them all kept clean and emptied. That toilet crew worked their socks off!

Having just had a chat with someone at Guilfest, they're aware that they could still do with a few more uninals (ewven tho any queuing was minimal), which I guess will be addressed next year.

The toilets were clean to the point of being frightening! And barely any queues, not even on Saturday when the crowds came. There was a fair amount of toilet on the main stage too, but that's another story.

The sinks in the ones near my tent didn't work all weekend, but who the hell expects sinks at a festival anyway?

Well done Guilfest, brilliant bogs!!!!!!
