I very much looked forward to participating in the Hay Literature Festival, except that I was terribly worried about one thing, the toilets. This is an anxiety I probably share with most others of my gender, and especially with those who hate queuing, have a sensitive nose and have a natural aversion to crowds. For a public cultural event, the Hay Literature Festival is also exemplary in this respect. There were 25 toilets – only for women – spread over two locations and, what is more, they were of good hygienic standard. You still had to queue, but less than elsewhere and so the festival gets good marks in this respect, too.
