Left the home , went for a wander passed an amazing stage , wandered down and saw my mates daughter, almost didn’t say hello the thought fick it , she was talking to my Bessie who sorted out the ticked and now in the right place , sometimes a plan just comes together...

 

[ruffneck23]

On site massive - Wellies yay or nay? Hearing differing reports.

Wellies

 

[friedaweed]

Keep yer trabs on hey lads!

 

[wiskey]

Nah, we walked all around site in our shoes earlier, you can walk round the mud.

As for searches when we came in vg2 (sun) we just told everyone who asked us if we'd been searched that yes we have by your colleagues just back there thank you, no they didn't find anything, yes the van is really full isn't it, you don't really need us to open it up again do you?

It worked.

YMMV on ped gates

Famous last words

I hope the sun shines for you all. What time are Mumford and Son's on?

This is what I was hoping. Now who do I trust...

 

[wiskey]

Well it's chucking it down so maybe not me

 

[Looby]

It’s quite slippy now but it’ll dry out fairly quickly if there’s no more rain but it definitely have decent boots if not wellies.

 

[wiskey]

I can hear the buzz of people arriving and the weather is perfect for carrying stuff

 

[ruffneck23]

First pint of hot n spicy cider too early ? Nah

Spent most of last night at maceos and the unfairground crew bar, the whole crew area is like a festival in itself...

 

[ruffneck23]

Block 9

 

[ruffneck23]

Arcadia , it’s bloody changed since I was last here

 

[Voley]

Have fun everyone. Just seen a weather forecast that's pretty encouraging.

It is . There used to be Banana Bar and the (gypsy-style) caravan bar in Unfairground, as well as the public bars.

Glastonbury experts - I'm thinking of travelling down to Wiltshire tomorrow night on the train that goes via Castle Cary. Will the trains out of Paddington be likely packed? Or will most people have gone down already?

Tomorrow will still be absolutely packed, especially evening as people who can’t get the whole time off work often head down Thursday night. If you can leave it till Friday morning it may be better although still busier than usual. Ideally find another route that doesn’t stop at Castle Cary, although I realise this might be easier said than done.

 

[ruffneck23]

It’s already getting busy at the main festival areas , and hot ! It’s getting really hot

 

[The Octagon]

Arrived at the camp field at 12, just in time to avoid the heat.

Currently sat in the shade next to Pilton Palais, hot as balls

 

[izz]

We live a few miles across the fields from the festival, so will think of you all there and wish you all a lovely time and no rain

 

[hammerntongues]

Has a Cider Bus meet already been arranged ? Will not be going in until tomorrow , from memory the Urbs meet is Thursday , or is that a thing of the past ?

 

[wiskey]

Well we need *some* rain over the weekend or a lot of people will be in trouble ... we've got through loads of suntan lotion already

 

[alsoknownas]

I'd be up for the traditional cider bus meetup if it happened tomorrow.

 

[alsoknownas]

Responsibilities discharged. Pack packed. On train. Just hours away from a proper Worthy beer!

 

[alsoknownas]

Yowsers, just listening to Ms Lauryn Hill in my headphones. Might have to wear shades for her set. Worried I might get a bit of grit in my eyes .

 

[izz]

You were very noisy last night actually, could you keep it down a bit please ?
