Last year i came home after only 4 hours sleep in 48 hours and was hallucinating on the sofa when my personnel manager rang me to tell me i had an interview and could i make it today?

I had lost my voice and could barely talk and everything was shimmering in manner of sunlight on a swimming pool. Needless to say i didnt get the job.....the hash truffles eaten in the car probably didnt help either. Then back to work the next day where i proceeded to make loads of cock ups and still had no voice.

This year i have taken the whole following week off!! I never want to repeat last years horror! So me and my boyfriend will be chilling at mine or his ofr the week in the sun and booking a late deal for later in july :ph34r:

- Be glad i tidied up before i left for the festival. Nothing better than a spotless house to come back to!

- Super warm bath

- Have my favourite meal on the Monday night.

- Fire up the iPlayer / Sky+

- Lager and cider in the fridge, cold as possible.

- A handful of pre-rolled spliffs, plucked from the mountain you did pre-fest.

- Make plans to meet up with your Glasto'ers in the pub on Tuesday/Wednesday

- Write a list of stuff to do / remember to take with you for 2010

- Also, view the craploads of flickr albums for photos of vague memories in better quality than you could have taken in your state.

On the way back home, coming into the city, we find it amusing to pop into Waitrose, in wellies, possibly (hopefully not) caked in mud, with wristbands, daft hats (with sunflowers on). You get some very odd looks. Stock up on some posh food as a treat (never go there normally!), and sit around drinking and watching the recorded coverage. At some point a deep bath is inevitable, but I like to keep the grime for a while.

And this year I've booked Tuesday off, as it's just too hard to stay awake at work.

Well, I'll do the twenty minute run to my Nan's in Warminster. Always leave the site dead early on the Monday, to be greeted by Nan with the ubiquitous "Do you want a cup of tea dear?".

Realise then that the fantasy is over for another year. Hate the come down, takes me a week. Last year I went straight to Ibiza. All it did was postpone the come down and make it worse, so this year - back into work half day Tuesday.

Am already dreading the come down next year, realising that is it for a whole two years.

Send the fallow to the gallow, I say.

      Primavera Sound 2026

      So bad honestly. I get that bad weather happens but their communication was non existent. When you're managing crowds of tens of thousands of people, it's just not good enough. I left when Massive Attack was cancelled (the first time) and it genuinely did feel unsafe trying to get out. No one knew what was going on, people still sitting in the ground when there were hoards of people trying to leave, no crowd management at all...   I've been to PS enough times to know sometimes you need to just roll with it but this was way worse than "the bar queue was 30 minutes long".    Today will be better but still feel super disappointed.
