Sir Paul McCartney's question to Scouse dad after bumping into him at Glastonbury

A dad at his seventh Glastonbury said it is his "luckiest" year yet after sharing a view of the sunset with Beatles legend Sir Paul McCartney

Joseph Foley, better known as Joey, 62, from Bootle, made the trip down south to Worthy Farm with friends and family and had been enjoying the hot weather and “glorious sunshine” over the first four days of the festival. On Saturday evening, June 24, the life-long Liverpool fan was in The Park area of the site to watch English-American rock band The Pretenders.

Having covered around 18 km on foot during the day, Joey said he felt completely “wiped out” and so went towards the hill overlooking the stage area to relax. At the perimeter of the festival taking in the sunset, he said he then saw a jeep pull up nearby.
