    Maybe there is some justice in this world :D

    AS the staff of HEXUS slave away, Andy was enjoying himself at Glastonbury.

    I say was, his tents now under 7" of water and everythings soaked

    Now I don't feel so bad that I have been working all the hours I can on HEXUS stuff since he left to enjoy himself

    ooooh Unlucky Andy

    A colleague of mine is at Glastonbury at the moment and was there from Wednesday. I hope he packed his dingy and swimming gear like I said he would need

    For glastonbury, you dont need a tent, you need 1 of those lift rafts , if it gets flooded, you just float above it

    WOW!!!!!

    I've just seen a video of it on the BBC website, and the place looks DRENCHED!!! It's no where near as wet here. It's just damp at the most. Looking outside I see one very small poodel (is that a dog?), and that's it!

    .....as the dude left me with all his rubbish and a s*it load of washing up he'll be getting zero sympathy from me. I wonder if he has a paddle up that creek?

    In all the years I managed to get into Glastonbury i never got muddy once. Extreme sun burn, but no mud. Well that was until the monday one year when it rained for about 30 seconds as we were leaving - it was a mud bath almost instantly. Must be hell there this year!

    Glad i have digital TV now. BBC 3 is doing full coverage with stage selection on interactive. Skint this weekend so might have to drag the TV into the garden with a few beers
