Lauren B Posted January 30, 2018 Report Share Posted January 30, 2018 Is anyone going solo? None of my friends would be up for it because of the price etc. But you get what you said and I've been wanting to go for years now. Abit nervous just turning up on my own haha. Respond to this message or maybe put me in touch with some people perhaps? Thank you!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miesh Posted January 31, 2018 Report Share Posted January 31, 2018 Hi Lauren There is a very welcoming and friendly bunch known as camp solo. They began a few years ago at Glastonbury but have now extended to other festivals, gigs and meet ups. All are welcome and you can spend as much or as little time with others as you wish. There's a WhatsApp group. I'll pm you x 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eFestivals Posted February 20, 2018 Report Share Posted February 20, 2018 there's now* a 'clubs' feature within the menus, so that these sorts of clubby discussions can be made here instead of elsewhere.

That's got to be a definite catch up. I owe you a few drinks from last year, so this would be a good chance to cash in your vouchers with me.

vintagelaureate Posted February 21, 2018 Report Share Posted February 21, 2018 You don't owe me any @Yoghurt on a Stick. Although not going solo, my friends have a tendancy to wander (both physically and in their minds!) - last year one got lost in the long drops! Look forward to the meet up!

Although not going solo, my friends have a tendancy to wander (both physically and in their minds!) - last year one got lost in the long drops! Look forward to the meet up! The last time that I went to Glastonbury one of my friends was seen by a young lady with his legs sticking out from under a long drop door. She went to the toilet herself, and when she came out she noticed his legs were still sticking out. So she went over to check if everything was OK. It wasn't really. My friend had passed out clutching on to the yakky toilet seat area, and presumably had thrown up. The first we knew of it was when she (a slight young lady) was propping him (a large beast of a man) and directing him towards our tents. That was some feat on her behalf to look after him, and guide him home. Strangely enough my friend is really quite high up in the medical profession, and the young lady, it turns out, was a trainee nurse. Anyway, my friend was trying to do an A to Z of different named / types of drug. The thing is he actually knows what every drug does - whether legal or illegal. He also knows the dosages that can be taken, and whether two differing drugs should not be taken together etc. However, in hind sight we should have talked him out of trying this mental campaign of drug use.

Does not look like anyone has tried using it yet though.

deadpheasant Posted April 11, 2018 Report Share Posted April 11, 2018 RE: The WhatsApp Group Thanks for the invite and you all seem like really nice people but it isn't really a camp loner group. Most of the active people all know each other so it sort of felt like listening in on a private conversation. If I did want to join in on the conversation it would usually break up the flow and get one or two responses. I would definitely like to meet other people and participate in a camp loner type experience (if my friends can't get tickets), it just felt that this wasn't something I was going to get with this particular whatsapp group. If anyone knows of an alternative group, perhaps of smaller size please give me a shout -Will 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Despite the best intentions they become the opposite of what they start out as. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
