Was fucking AMAZING
So much banter, tunes were superb, the chemical brothers were unreal, as were daft punk, really great.
Quite a few funny stories, these being throwing a sausage and a bottle of water at the lead guiarist of the automatic, seen by 30,000+ people, never got caught either  , laughing at the people shagging in a tent next to us, stealing 10+ massive bottles of tomato sauce & mustard from a burger stand, then firing them everywhere, earned myself the title of "Condiment Commander" 
Loads of other stories, really was superb, except the toilets, they were fucking disgusting, and a sewage tank burst somewhere, shit EVERYWHERE, so wrong.
Defo going next year tho!

Ill have to say, some of the acts were total shite, but the craic was brilliant, one superb thing there was the pimm's bus, a double decker bus selling pimm's, first time ive tried it, loved it.

manics were pretty shite IMO, not a fan of their music anyway. Organisation was pretty poor at it though, I couldnt get into the tent where daft punk were, it was totally packed out. Had to stand outside and listen, as did thousands of other people. Really should of been on stage tbh, more space.

I listened on the radio, seemed more like an indy music festival than last years dance music focused one, kind of glad I didnt go

Yeah, quite true, wasn't really dance, daft punk made it though, utterly amazing, and the chemical brothers, brilliant.
Only reason i think the automatic were there was to play monster, and get sausages thrown at them 
Still go back next year methinks, shall see what the acts are next year. Most of the fun is in the banter around the campsite and events round the stages, the tunes are just an added bonus
