Whether you were there for the action at Worthy Farm this year or not, we're sure that you've seen some of the mud-soaked horror stories that have come out of this year's festival. Of course, Glastonbury is known for being notoriously muddy, but this year's lashing of rain really took its toll on the site's parking area.
After all the chaos caused last Wednesday, with some festival-goers experiencing delays of over 10 hours as they journeyed into Pilton, the organisers wanted to make sure that they were prepared to help car travellers leave the festival on Sunday and Monday. As you may have seen in our previous blog post,
we delivered several loads of towing chains to the site on Friday, to help ensure that all the provisions were in place to help cars flee the mud.
Since our last post, videos have emerged on BBC Points West, showing our towing chains in action as people are pulled out of the mud. Some even left the site as early as Sunday afternoon, with a host of acts yet to perform, in a bid to avoid the chaos of the Monday rush. You can see footage of tractors pulling vehicles out of the mud bath with our towing chains

If you're heading to a UK festival this summer, make sure you're prepared with the right gear! We have
trolley carts,
winching gear,
tarpaulins and more, to make sure you have a great time, even in the British weather!
