Had this hanging on my Gardener's Lavatory Wall since 1997...................memories of a good weekend, I recall it raised about £70K towards restoration. Weather was usually good, good gathering and some boaters visited the Rally at Braunston (pre Crick Days?) on the Saturday. Shame it stopped.

Yep! the beer tent was popular ..... and the 'strange'  smell in the tent in the evenings made one feel a bit dizzy.........good do's though, I think I stopped going about the same time as you..

We went most years from 92-97. In the later years doing the site electrics with kit I may have “borrowed” from the day job….almost remember Wild Willy Barrett in the beer tent after acquiring a piano from a local pub….it was a great festival and a brilliant atmosphere

Thanks for the information, good article and background on the event, I had a wry smile about the numbers needed to 'man' the entrance gates, I was tasked with organising folks for this purpose at a couple of festivals and yes, it was a bit of a problem, as vast numbers of people turned up once.
