I went in 1992 and it was baking hot - managed about a wee a day, which is not wise on the hydration front but, given the state of the toilets by the last day, probably for the best.

My main memory is being solidly off my nut Saturday. Watched the Levellers on the main stage (it was still a pretty hippie/crusty affair as Ozric Tentacles and the RDF were on the bill too) slowly falling into a shallow hole in the ground. Then wandered over to see The Orb, The Shaman and Primal Scream. I had a blast.

Sunday, I remember getting spunked on by a guy on stilts with a three foot phallus before they burnt a giant wicker man. I believe the two incidents were related. I hope so.
