Remember the days when some amongst us were young enough

[Sir C]

I've just looked through the previous line ups and reckon I stopped going regularly in 1998.

I've been back a couple of times since and realised that if you are - not with a gang of mates and are not absolutely mashed and unless it is perfectly dry weather - it really isn't worth going.

Ah, still, the early 90s

It all started going to shÃ*t when they put the fences up, of course.

Was it the first year of fences that the unwashed tried to climb over? I had a group of chums, ex-squaddies, who did security that year. They had the greatest weekend ever, beating up hippies, stealing their drugs and selling them on.
