Seeing the brown smoke from the burnt out toilets move itself over the campsite on the Monday morning was a sight (and smell) I'll never forget Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you think they will take compacts too? as my face powder that is in a plastic compact case has an in-build mirror and so does my eye shadow compact... I really hope this type of thing does get taken too as you're going to have a lot of upset women otherwise, as most compact makeup has mirrors in them I'm sure they would if they found it as they're very strict on glass, but that would always have been the case, not just this year. Only difference this year is maybe they're more likely to find it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never really thought about it much before as its in plastic compact which is fine, might not be even glass I don't know tbh Let up they don't empty out my makeup bag and take it off me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My foundation is a very thick glass bottle and my eyeshadow pallet has a mirror. If they take either I'll cry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
___S_o_m_a__ Posted June 11, 2017 Report Share Posted June 11, 2017 It's probably already been mentioned but just in case... I spoke to my mate who's on site now working the Trump's Wig and Other Animals stage and he said that knives are completely banned from site. In place of knives, spoons must be used at all times. Italian based food proprietors unaffected however preparations are being made to issue gigantic spoons for use by kebab personnel. Stay safe, stay spoon.

It's gone from a message on the official website to give us a heads up about the searches being more thorough, all the way to random people posting messages like, "COME AT THIS/THAT TIME! DON'T STEP OUT OF YOUR CAR OR TAKE A PISS OR YOU'LL BE WRESTLED TO THE GROUND AND WATERBOARDED" When actually, it's all going to be exactly the same party in the queue as it has been every year, but we'll just be in the queue a bit longer this time. The only thing to come out of these messages is that more people will become paranoid and will be too scared to enjoy themselves. Everything will be fine.

mrfunk Posted June 11, 2017 Report Share Posted June 11, 2017 Ok in my camper I will have a basic tool kit, socket set, screwdrivers , leatherman, scissors . I'm assuming this might be ok, providing obviously it stays in the camper? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suspect the searches will be looking for weapons etc plus glass bottles, so something small like a powder, tucked away somewhere, may well not be looked at.

I was there forthat on mushrooms, it was like a war zone! We sat and watched tents on fire, and gangs throwing anything (anything!) they could find at each other. We were scared to go to sleep!

Shariken Posted June 11, 2017 Report Share Posted June 11, 2017 I think a powder compact is fine if it doesn't get found, but I use a mirror for contact lens and a phone on selfie doesn't work so I ordered a non glass mirror that I posted on the bargain thread - it arrived on friday and very pleased with it. Only don't do what I did and order without the discount code http://magicmirroruk.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keithy Posted June 11, 2017 Report Share Posted June 11, 2017 Hahahah FFS, get a grip people. You're going to be allowed mirrors! They ban glass bottles because idiots will just drop them on the ground, they get broken, trod into the dirt and then 4 months later injure a cow. Glastonbury haven't banned anything extra this year, it's the same normal rules with the potential for more indepth searches. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
