The FIRST-TIMER
'I WENT TO GLASTO FOR THE FIRST TIME AT 54'
Sarah Baker, 55, is a ceramicist and works part-time in a school. She has three grown-up children and lives in Kent with her husband, Richard. Last year, she went to Glastonbury for the very first time.
I know I'm a late starter with festivals. As you get older, I think you hit a middle ground where you're not young enough to go clubbing but you're not old enough to give up dancing completely. Bring on festivals!
I finally made it to Glastonbury with my husband Richard last year, having tried to get tickets for ages. As a frustrated hippy, Glasto was my dream. Richard was nervous - he worried about the crowds and that he wouldn't enjoy it. In the end, he said it was one of the best weekends of his life.
It was like a fantasy village - so colourful and happy. Age was irrelevant. There were 90-year-olds next to young mums breastfeeding, and then all the cool teens too. At one point we found ourselves watching Lekiddo, Lord of the Lobsters in the Rabbit Hole tent and, before I knew it, Richard was doing the 'pinchy-pinchy-kisskiss' dance with everyone! It was such fun.
Sometimes we walked up to the stone circle and sat watching everything from afar - it really was magical. Luckily, we had glorious sunshine, not a muddy swamp in sight-but I'd still be keen whatever the weather.
We've only scratched the surface, so there's lots more to do this year. If we can get there, we'll still be going into our 70s - hell yeah!
