The elusive flushing toilets

[bennyboi]

It's always big ground, hence why I always camp there

After bring on site Saturday I can confirm they are up and ready to willingly accept tonne of wee, poo and everything else your body can produce

That'll be vomit then.

Yeah, I'm leaning more towards the Cider Bus now but I'm still holding out hope for the left of the Pyramid Stage too. That way it'll be official that I've not gone mad. Honest.

There's defo some near the pyramid. I used them in 2013. I remember hearing Wild Horses while sat on one

Thanks Lipgloss and Cigarettes - it was 2013 I was thinking about.

 

 

I'm not familiar with Wild Horses. Who sings it and is it good pissing / shitting music?

I think longdrops are one of the greatest festival creations ever. But I do still like the odd trip to the flushables too.

 

Need to check out the compost ones this year...

There's always composters near the stone circle

Note - you'll not want to go back to long drops once you've used the compost ones.

Where are the composting ones??

They are metal framed with patterned / graffiti walls...

From what I remember...

Some behind the west holts field as you walk back towards the other. Other set somewhere by oxylers... keep walking thru the field of portaloos which run alongside the railway line with the park /arcadia on the left and on they were on the right...

Also some by the pyramid I thought... cider bus end.

Look at me... looks like I'm obsessed.

Have to say, I'm more a fan of the composters than long drops. So just trying to figure if there are any somewhat close to Dairy where we are camping.

An Imodium on Thursday morning. Job's a good un.

 

Probably not healthy mind....

Bringing a friend to their first Glastonbury.  I know I'm going to get asked this one!  Can anyone with knowledge of this mythical facility put a marker on Glastomap...

generate a link and then share back here?  Me....I'm happy with a long drop ...but knowing location of flushers would probably earn me a pint of Brothers!!

I've got a mate who doesn't go for a shit ever at festivals. That's never right and proper.

Rolling Stones innit. It was a wee and yes it was quite a nice tune to pee to.

I'm afraid I have very little knowledge on the music front but happy to hear it was a nice tune to pee to.

 

 

As for myself, if I'm honest, I really like sitting in a clean turdis, without a queue, for quite a while having a think. It's especially good if it's a hot day and I've got a major drug sweat on. But then that's me all over - old fashioned all the way.

There's a few other bodily fluids that don't need mentioning.

Spot on - now keep it under your hat everyone

[tjfish]

I poop there all the time. Perfection! Well worth the walk up the hill!

Your absolutely right - that Fanny Batter alone can get in to the places even Toilet Duck can't reach. Talking of which my wife once held a party which ran out of drink. The net result of this was that an alcoholic asked where the toilet was so that he could drink the contents of a cleaning fluid. Apparently he came back in to the lounge guzzling the contents of a Toilet Duck bottle with the air of somebody who thought this was quite a natural thing to do.

There were composting loos near the cider bus, some in the fields behind the dairy farm (next to Pylon) and in a field on the way back to PGA, but sounds like there's more as they're after more volunteers this year

Yep I'm a long dropper (so to speak) myself,  a quick walk in the morning while the world is in recovery mode , the clang of metal and the splash of (fairly) distant poop  what better way to start the day

It's a long walk depending where you are and especially if you're crowning. My only issue with the long drops is cleaning other peoples piss off the seat before I can sit down and release

There's some in Dairy on the side of the hedge by the Arcadia/Park road. Very nice for the morning as they are raised up so you get a nice little breeze.

Why thanking you very much.

Ok so this post was an emotional roller coast, I was shocked, discussed I laughed I cried.

Your alcy mate must of had a death wish.

And on the menstruation thing. Has anyone seen the stickers in the loos about Moon Cups? There slogan is "you can stop using tampons" what are they? So birds just time it right n dribble it into a cup?
