[El Jefe]

What's the latest weather report? It's warm here but wet

well it's not great there at the moment but it's looking good for later on friday / rest of the weekend so shouldn't be too bad. Always quite nippy at night though

 

[wiskey]

its rained every day here since last monday except saturday which was blazing sunshine.

so i bet the grounds fucked

 

[han]

I advocate bikinis and wellies

I will if you will

 

[Firky]

Hhmm... the only coat I have is a fuck off wax jacket that has gone stiff with age. Can I bum one off you, jefe?

Only have one myself, and there's gonna be no bumming

 

[aqua]

currently all weather reports are suggesting I was right in putting my waterproof coat out ready for the weekend

 

[Firky]

Oh fuck sake, every time I go and buy a cheap tent the weather is shit and I each year I say I will buy a poncho.

 

[El Jefe]

will be a shame, was fucking gorgeous last year.

 

[Firky]

Am really fucking gutted actually if it does rain. I haven't had a sunny festival for fucking years.

ooh funny double poste

There's quite a lot of 'indoors' at this one, after all two of the three stages are indoors, and so is the bar, so it shouldn't be a problem.

edit: inflaps, i mean.

 

[wiskey]

if only weatherforecasts actually influenced the weather, nice idea but it does what its going to do anyway.

 

[Firky]

Well last year I said that it can't rain for three weeks solid, Glastonbury will be sunny...

 

[beesonthewhatnow]

Fuck it, I'm determined to have a good time, especially after not going to glasto this year, I'm not gonna let rain spoil it, no matter how much there may be

 

[El Jefe]

It won't get that muddy, the rain doesn't bother me, mud does. But it'll be a shame cos it's the best fest for just sitting around talking bollocks

 

[Firky]

Found me leggings!
Got big fuck off boots!
Will rummage for a suitable coat.

I haven't had one for two weeks

 

[kalidarkone]

What do you reckon are my chances of getting in for the day? I'm happy to pay £25. I have looked on the website but it does not mention going for the day.

 

[wiskey]

last email said if any tickets are left they will decrease in price as time goes on, so cheaper sunday than saturday but not guaranteed to be any left by then.

ring 07779814615 for how many are left.

eta: I'm sure one of us can walk up and buy you one sunday morning if there are some left at a price that suits you.

 

[moonsi til]

^^^ As far I know there are no day tickets. The festival ticket reduces in price each day with the Sunday ticket becoming a day ticket. So only day ticket would be the Sunday...

 

[mango5]

Oooh it would be good to see you I reckon you could come. Get someone to get the lowdown and give you a call on Friday or Saturday.

 

[wiskey]

if it rains and you dont go all exclusive backstage then I might get to see madams van finally.

 

[wiskey]

tickets

re-reading the email it says that w/e tickets will cos more on the gate on friday than they did by post.

This seems odd to me as surely its better to sell them and make money from the extra people through the bars etc than to discourage them by making it more expensive

Ooh that would be fab- I'll pm someone.

Yeah would be great to see you too!!

 

[bluestreak]

so, which of you lot told me ages ago that endorse it was only running on friday and saturday and that everyone went home on the sunday.

i've just found out that this isn;t the case and will now have to do a late night sunday travelling mission,

 

[El Jefe]

Sure you haven't confused it with the Glade?
