Spending Tuesday night in Glastonbury town, then taking whatever bus or cab service is available on Wednesday morning.  What is the traffic like getting onto the site on Wednesday morning?  How about queues at the gates?

We were going to leave to get there Tues night, I'm well up for it, but then had a thought - my best mate hasn't been before and I want him to see the place in the light so we're getting there early weds...I get that really excited feeling when I'm driving down the road and see the wall...there's no point in getting there in the dark for him to wake up the next day and not know where he is...I love taking virgins, it's like you re-live the whole experience again of the first time you went...

Spending Monday-Tuesday in Glastonbury town this year, n getting up nice and early Wednesday morning to get to Pilton, at least beat the normal commuter traffic, and with the car parks open, it shouldn't Jam up like it has the last couple a years.

8 Weeks today. Yes. Yes. YES!!!  :P

Leaving Telford at 10:00am on Wednesday, if this was a good cross section of all people going then I am happy that at least 70% of people will be off the road before I get in the area

170 votes, thats near enough, sooo, be the poll representative;

tuesday PM   29,000
wednesday AM 109,000
wednesday PM 21,000
thursday AM 6,000
thursday PM 5,000
friday AM         There will be no one coming to the festival at this time.
friday PM         1,000

Still thats around 30,000 people less on the roads on Wednesday than last year. All horribly rough results but you get the idea. :P
