Has anyone thought of the Delgados for any of the slots (not gone through the whole thread sorry) - reunited recently and did a few UK gigs, playing Primavera this weekend Long shot, but figured worth mentioning

as always this thread is a thing of beauty 🙂 I have not been on efests for a while - but this is like a warm welcoming hug 🙂

near Pilton? 😛

Welcome Iggy 🙂

yeah - exactly like this - word was they have that in WV and there would be in SL too - it was mentioned in an email reply to someone on the sticklinch FB group from someone from the WV/SL team - but I just looked through the welcome PDF we all got and nothing mentioned in there - so they must have changed their mind

We really liked Sticklinch - first time doing any pre-erected camping at Glasto so nothing to pitch it against really Toilets and showers - timed correctly not an issue (Im an early riser normally so never had to queue) - defo could have been more food vendors (especially more than one that did proper coffee) Was there a communal camp fire anywhere on the site - there had been communications that there would be - but I never saw anything?

As you should.

I'll just shout "Mark Quark!" - seems a shame to dispel the myth

Looking dusty just now.....

Bimble has always been a favourite I used to also love the counter in the park that sold the park T-shirts and other park stuff, they used to do "cheap" rum and cokes/dark and stormy's - only 2014-2016 I think - years since then they never served booze, I have a sneaky suspicion they were never supposed to be selling booze and the guys were operating "under the counter" drinks sales - as I recall asking in 2017 and they just laughed and said uhhhh - we aren't selling drinks this year 😄

This was my second option 😉

Pussy Parlure surely

Im sure its already been said this morning - but the farm is looking stunning in the sunshine today.

She was excellent on Park in 2019!

Im not sure - but I think firewood and campfires were banned in 2019 purely because of the heat/dry ground and risk of fire spreading through dry grass - Im fairly certain the firewood stall in other field was still there - but closed up, similar I recall them saying no camping stoves too (but everyone ignored that) - but again, I think it was all related to the risk of fire spreading, I'd assume/hope that if its "damp" (just to keep the dust down mind!) then camp fires will be allowed again? Although if you are in WV or Sticklinch - personal campfires are not allowed from what I have read - there is apparently a communal one, probably similar to Strummerville's campfire

Grass cutting action in Sticklinch - final cut before (coughs) erection?

I seem to recall they sometimes dont get put in place till the Tuesday/Wednesday of the fest itself - I have recollections of walking past pyramid on the Wed and they were just being hoisted into place and tested - I could be wrong

Agree - Wed 2017 was really bloody hot - stood in PGD queue half way through the car park (I think queue's were especially bad that year after the fun and games for a lot of people getting onto the site in 2016) - pretty sure I could hear folks skin sizzling like sausages! 2019 - was also a hot one - defo more than a couple of times there were issues trying to find shade.....recall walking through pyramid field when Bjorn Again (was it - I think it was...recall a big sing along?) were on - and it was seriously toasty!

Mine arrived today (email Friday) - if the Sticklinch/WV emails would just arrive that would be great 🙂

Sneaking in a bit of Grateful Dead guitar tab for good measure 😉

Don't mention 2016 - I still have "the fear" over it 😄

could be a very large catapult behind the tent?

In case anyone was wondering, like me, roughly when we might see the Glastonbury sign on the hill.....had a quick search back through the thread - and it was pretty late in 2019 - June 18th/19th

here was me hoping someone would make a 1.21 gigawatts comment
