Drinking water and toilets

Is there a drinking water tap on site, or will I have to bring lots of bottles with me?
Obviously I won't drink too much of the stuff, as a) I'm sure I can think of better things to drink, and b) I have a pathological fear of festival toilets, and I may have to invest in a she-pee anyway.
Not sure I can be convinced by the Lenor bottle approach either...

The FAQ describes a multitude of standpipes to supply potable water. If I were you I'd find about 4 litres worth of plastic bottles and just take them; then fill them when you get there to avoid carrying too much. Keep them in your tent or camper. :) I'm taking my 5-gallon barrel - it's better than filling up all the time and when it's full it's too heavy to pinch easily.

You can get collapsible water carriers from any good camping shop, they're dirt cheap and incredibly useful. You can fill them with about 5 litres of water, but when they're empty they roll away into pocket size.
The toilets at Green Man are the best festival toilets I've encountered by a country mile.

The toilets were really good last year but I'll still be taking my trusty she pee just in case.

Oops... school-boy error. Didn't notice it in the FAQ!

I don't have the strongest of bladders, so when i'm drinking i tend to need the toilet quite a lot, but the toilets at Greenman are great! only went in about 3 all weekend that didn't have toilet paper... clean and only a little bit smelly :)

Google it! Basically they enable girls to pee standing up like boys. Takes a bit of practice but it really works. And I still find it utterly hilarious every time I use it. Very useful at festivals when faced with a yucky toilet seat.

but slightly disconcerting for a man when you find yourself standing shoulder to shoulder with a woman at the urinals :/
