Wellies, Weller and Weather, Glasto wades in for final day

Closing day of Glastonbury is well underway, and the rain has been set at 'fine trickle' since about 2am.

John Fogerty triumphs at Glastonbury

John Fogerty has just played the Glastonbury Jazz/ World Stage (June 23), only his second show in the UK since 1972. Coming on to massive applause and cheering, Fogerty looked very pleased to be here, saying: " It's beautiful to be here at Glastonbury. I'm so happy to be in England again. But I ain't here to do speeches, I'm here to play rock'n'roll!

Biffy Clyro, CSS and Klaxons defy Glastonbury rain

Apologies for late posting, but got carried away round at the Other Stage, there was a nice run of back-to-back bands that it would have been churlish to try and wade back to the press area. Scottish rockers Biffy Clyro were as good as I'd hoped they'd be.

Knowsley Hall — Greetings from Liverpool!
