I remember this as one of the best festivals I ever went to. The Incredible String Band were brilliant. Buffy St Marie was great too. I remember having a very brief hallucination that James Taylor was playing a serpent and not a guitar. This was probably provoked by all the signs about there being adders in the woods. It was a really friendly festival. Yes I did have some trouble getting away and ended up walking to town on a very misty morning/dawn with a few other people so that I could catch a coach home. This was a very magical walk and has stuck in my memory ever since. It was just like that line from a String Band song about the misty, twisty day.
