"Glastonbury Fayre was held at Worthy Farm, Pilton, near Shepton Mallet, Somerset, from Sunday June 20 to Thursday June 24, encompassing Midsummers Day. It was a fair in the medieval tradition, embodying the legends of the area, with music, dance, poetry, theatre, lights and the opportunity for spontaneous entertainments. There was no monetary profit - it was free."

" The choice of Glastonbury , rich in myth and legend , is deliberate. Glastonbury Abbey is supposed to have been built as a spiritual successor to Stonehenge and in accord with the same hidden elements of geometry and numerology. The organizer of this strange amalgam of modern pop culture and ancient magic is Andrew Kerr- 37 year old ex director of Randolph Churchill's research team which worked on the biography of Sir Winston. For the festival , Kerr has had his own pyramid of steel girders built over a blind spring . 75 ft across at the base and 48 ft high , exactly a tenth the size of the Great Pyramid. The climactic moment apparently , occurs early on Monday Morning . "Imagine ," says Kerr, " we're going to concentrate the celestial fire and pump it into the planet to stimulate growth. " Yes it will be nice to be there on the day. Will this energy be visible ? Will it be possible to feel it ? - "we shall have to wait and see ",says Kerr, " I am sure we shall all experience something very wonderful " "

Geez, I used to see ads that included huge explanations here on ebay and think "Wow, what's that all about?" Now, I have an ad with a huge explanation at the end. Well, time & experience...there are some wiggy people out there in cyberland and it only takes one of them to ruin a good week! Amazingly, the inclusion of this section in 2002 has had remarkable results. And so, for continued luck & peace of mind in 2004, it's staying!
