Coming back to Knowlsey Hall today, Picture Editor May and I find a few things have changed...

It's quite a trudge up to the Pyramid Stage, so deep and sticky, but I don't mean to bore you with mud stories - Mike Scott's Waterboys have just finished their third performance at this year's Glastonbury festival...

Closing day of Glastonbury is well underway, and the rain has been set at 'fine trickle' since about 2am. Today will see Dame Shirley Bassey do her big numbers on the Pyramid Stage - on a Sunday billing that also includes Manic Street Preachers, Kaiser Chiefs and The Who, who are straight on to the site from headlining Knowsley Hall up in Liverpool last night.

John Fogerty has just played the Glastonbury Jazz/ World Stage (June 23), only his second show in the UK since 1972.
