Glastonbury 2007 pt1: the build-up

[Final]

They finally took the dosh out of my account yesterday. I am much relieved.

Especially since the tickets I paid for were all for friends (another mate got mine).

Giles..

my account took the hit yesterday as well.

 

[Sunray]

165 quid lighter today. All done and dusted.

Now need a sleeping bag and blow up bed. My blow up bed suffered from me smoking hash on it thinking I'd be careful and failing in that.

Hmm, Coleman one on special for 24 quid but no internal pump.

For the record: I really like the stone circle........ ummmm ........ man(?)

 

[aqua]

the stone circle always makes me laugh

 

[pagan]

ok, ok, when I said the stone circle I really meant the 'sacred space'...stone circle gets a bit hectic but I still think it rocks (scuse the pun) and you can call me an old hippie, I don't care

Each to their own anyway that's what makes Glasto so great, I hate the Pyramid stage, the radio 1 arena and babylon in general but theres nothing better then getting off your head at The Glade of an evening, getting well messy at Lost Vagene$$ during the night and then staggering up the hill for a bit of sunrise drumming.

Great story about the stone circle from the builders in that Glastonbury Tales book, it's aligned and everything but you cagoule wearing children of Thatcher wouldnt appreciate that

i dunno either, she ain't answering her MSNs either... not sure what to do.

so why do you think that? did they email you? text her? I think its the middle of the night over there....

 

[tastebud]

shit, my friend's account hasn't made the grade for some reason... *panics*

if you mean bank account, they have major delays at the moment, with taking the payments out.

do you mean she doesn't have sufficient money in the account to pay for the tickets?

what its aligned with is another matter......the factory that made the tractor that laboured so hard to drag the stones there? if the neolithics had been able to use tractors, they'd have put a bloody roof on!

 

[bluestreak]

i can't text her, my phone has been disconnected again

okay, so that's alright then. you have time to get it sorted
just make sure y'all get the bloody money in there! i want to see you & maestro at Glasto, God damnit!

 

[beesonthewhatnow]

You've got a week to sort it out, I wouldn't panic too much just yet

 

[bluestreak]

yeah, maestrocloud has just phoned me up to point out that today isn't the 13th....

*stops panicking*

 

[Winkybag]

You've got a week to sort things out though bluestreak...
Just checked my bank & no money's been debited yet, I've supposedly paid for me & a mate too. I never thought I'd say this, but I really hope someone takes several hundred pounds from my bank account very soon

Money still not gone out of the account for me. Is the fact there's a Bank Holiday on delaying updates to details of peoples' online accounts?

 

[bouncer_the_dog]

Shambles.

[Firky]

tp just asked me to ask something about camping because I didn't know the answer and I can't see it in the glasto faq but I forget what it is

 

[Firky]

Oh yeah, there is proper pissers for the lasses init? She doesn't want to sprinkle her wet lettuce in a mixed sex toilet block. I'm pretty sure there are toilet blocks just for lasses, yeah? Pay a donation or something or am I going mad. Water Aid IIRC?!

fuck knows.

CHANG!

 

[Mapped]

There are those she-pees near the Pyramid stage where the ladies can piss through a funnel standing up. I think the the rest of them are mixed.
