If your mates won't stay in one place while you nip off for a piss, you've got to wonder whether they're trying to tell you something.

The only time it's really difficult to get to the loo is if you've earned a hard-won spot in front of the Pyramid crush barrier for a big act. I was in some amount of pain during Blur, holding it in. But hold it in you must; and plan ahead by limiting your drinking while in that situation. What goes in must come out.

in 2008 or 2009 (i forget which) my ex went to see Franz Ferdinand up at the park stage and some guy just unzipped and pissed on her leg.... This my friends is WRONG...

A bit of planning and Finding the nearest proper toilet instead of a cup on the ground.... This is RIGHT

The crowd towards the front for big acts at the pyramid can get really dense and it is difficult to get out, let alone back in again and find people.

However - if you want to be towards the front for a particular act you just need to plan for it. Drink shorts and keep the liquid intake down for an hour or so before, have one last wee before heading in, and then excercise some self control.

If you cant do this - stand further back where it is easier to get out to the loos and back in again to find your mates.

It is also true that if the worst comes to the worst - you don't HAVE to find your mates so badly that it becomes acceptable to piss in a cup. Just find your way back to where you can see the band, and meet your mates afterwards. We're all big enough to do this - not 6 years old!

If you are truly incontinent you are able to be in the crowd at pyramid and Other stages and only be 1 minute (if that) form a toilet but you won't be down the front.

Unless you are in front of, or just next to the sound box for the top 2 acts you won't have a problem getting back if nature calls as I always find people tend to stand in rough lines which are easily sideways navigable and there will be breaks to move forward. (the exception to this rule is Sunday, when the chair brigade have arrived at the Pyramid field and turn the entire thing into some sordid obstacle course worthy of a crystal maze challenge!)

Being a 'Glasto Virgin', one thing that i have always wondered when looking at the aerial photo of the huge crowds around the Pyramid stage is, if you need the loo what do you do? Fight your way our of the mass of people to the nearest loo and rick loosing your mates or just hold it?

Obviously for a 'No. 1' its a little easier, where at V festival i learnt a great little trick involving my poncho and a paper pint cup and for girls they have these mind boggling things call she-pees (I still have no idea hows these work.....but hey, im guessing its just one of lives many mysteries)

But what do you do if your stomach suddenly decides to fall our your arse?!? Arh.....why didn't i take that Imodium!!

I appreciate its a little early for this thread, so apologies if you are eating your breakfast!! :O

Never pissed while in the crowd & probably never will, but if you're defo going down that route .. use a Lenor bottle instead of a cup & when you have finished you can screw top on and dispose of it later.

Or just drink shots instead of pints. :D

Can't these aparatus be bought for the able bodied and lazier of us too? I'm sure i saw something along these lines on one of those boy's toys websites. Something like a sticky sheath to fit over your junk and a bag to strap to the inside of your leg. Always thought that to be a good idea.

My thoughts exactly!!! Apparently its environmentally wrong! considering pee is nearer enough 99% water with a bit of pear cider mixed in, i dont see the major problem. I dont plan to throw it in anyone's face, just pour it casually into the grass (If i couldnt get to a toilet).

Isn't that why people wear wellies so they can tramp around in people's wee all day long ;) ? Or have i got my wires crossed....

Prior to us lot arriving, wasn't there 100's of cows pissing and pooping in the fields all day long..

awaits backlash....... :ph34r:
