One year she decided to try "proper camping" (her words, not mine) and hired a luxury motor home for Glastonbury. She proudly told me how it had central heating, a shower and all that jazz. They were advised by the hirers to drive to Somerset with the water tank empty, and fill it when they got there, to save on fuel. When they got there, they couldn't get anywhere near a standpipe, so the shower was bloody useless! How I laughed.
She now stays in a hotel a couple of miles away when she goes to Glastonbury.
Reminds me of a similar tale from a couple of years ago.
