To get your information about *Glastonbury* from a few tv reports is hardly the same. YOUR posts were about Glastonbury to which I replied. It IS NOT the same as other festivals, craft fayres etc.. I'm still entitled to *think *your opinions are wrong. Your statement whilst not being wrong AS I SAID was not taken in the context of the WHOLE SITUATION AND FESTIVAL SITE. ie IT WAS NOT AS BIG A DEAL AS IT WAS REPORTED IN THE MEDIA. As for camping areas.. people have a choice. Please don't assume that everyone needs to be told things. Perhaps that is a reflection of the country you live in where everyone sues everyone else. We haven't got to the situation where that happens here yet but it is on the way. If you trust the media ( which is where you said your reports came from ) to give you the whole picture, then I feel sorry for you. Really I do. I wouldn't trust them with a penny if I had a million pounds. If you trust me less, then I'm shocked personally, but at least I know for the future. I guess you've insulted me as much as I appear to have insulted you. What a pisser.. It's not everyday I appear to lose a friend. Gutted. Don't worry, and don't bother replying again, cus I ain't gonna answer again, or indeed any further posts as we obviously can't trust each other. Forget the whole fucking thread.
