Dear Roy,
I've got this black plastic disk with a hole in the middle. Is this a record?

Nightclub you can usually find plenty of abandoned drinks in decent nick, at least towards the end of the night.
I'm a cheap skate enough that I'd often spend any time after 1pm drinking such drinks soley, even when I was in a pretty well paid job!

You could check that you are not suffering from body dysmorphia. If you are, then go to a specialist to sort your brain out. Once this is done you can go to the festival happy with your belly.

It`s 1982 with a group of about 12 mates, all dropped purple micro dots and are really flying- lost my mates and started on a real downward spiral.
ended up back at the tent on my own got a fire going and was ok while it`s burning. run out of wood and started getting parniod again------ so took all my clothes off and burnt them...getting parnoid again.... now the problem was that i had been lying on one arm and it had gone to sleep(no feeling in it) so logically its useless....! get my axe and work out at what point along my arm i can chop it off .....just about to start the swing and a guy who had been watching came over took my axe and sat down talking to me. then kept skinning up for the next few hours and kept me sane...... a true hero and a real act of kindness.

I totally agree! I'm feeling the warmth of good people and a magical vibe that i'd ride on my horse through galaxies to be a part of

UPDATE:
noticed the royal mail special delivery sticker had been peeled off the ticket envelope. checked the tracking number on royal mail and
"Your item with reference ############## was delivered from our YEOVIL Delivery Office on 06/06/11 "
The electronic signature printed name is "HICKS".
so I've narrowed it down to "Fi Hicks, potentially from somewhere near Yeovil, Somerset"
I'm not taking this too far am I?
I do want to say thank you

I met him last year in the leftfield tent... he told me he was looking for Billy (Bragg I assumed)... I said "erm.. he was up there a minute ago" and pointed to the stage.. he seemed satisfied with that and went!
Very friendly Geezer though and he let me have a picture with him and my son.

Let's dance to orinoco and celebrate the irony..

Fi for Prime Minister.

Tommmy. I don't think the massage parlour in the Healing Field is quite what you may be expecting!

Some of them things take a pounding you know. Drums that is.

They'll be absolutely fab. I think he's dropped the ball on this one.

Did this in 2009 with a new pair of Doc Martens. Absolute agony. Unfortunately history seems to be repeating as I'm currently waiting on the newest pair since those, as I found out last week that they are no longer any good at keeping water at bay. This time I made sure to buy a second-hand pair which have already been worn-in from Ebay so fingers crossed I won't come a cropper.
My other story involved a friend who thought using the taps in the porta-cabins was a good idea. Eager to wash her hands she pressed on the footpump only to have her hands covered in the most rancid brown-coloured waste-fluid. The moral of the story here is bring your own handwash and never trust the bogs!

I decided just a few days before Glastonbury one year not to go to it. Had I known about this forum then I could have given my ticket away to someone needy. As it was I gave it to a friend who was going, to see if he could just give it to someone trying to get in, but he didn't find anyone so it was wasted. What I'm trying to say is that it makes perfect sense to post asking for a ticket, right up to the very last day or so because you may just come across someone in the same position as I was then.
PS - I'm not flippant with Glasto tickets, I was having a breakdown at the time.

(Only if you do) - when he wakes up on Sunday, tell him you love him. He'll be on cloud 9 all day after that.

Presumably, if asked, you can say your hair was dyed at the time the previous photo ID was taken and that you have only recently gone back to blonde. Maybe wear a hat although I believe there's some advice against this as the festival is onto this manoeuvre. As PabloCoke says- a bit of make up and some Dutch courage and a winning smile should also assist.

Between now and the festival, catch a badger. Under cover of darkness, take the badger to a place in fence without too much security. Once in place, get the badger to burrow under the fence for you. To make sure the badger doesn't escape, tie a rope around one of his back legs. When you are in put the badger back down the hole and shoo it away, you don't want a badger roaming around and getting into someone's tent.

not reading - i've always hated it apart from radiohead's set in 2009 which was simply the best festival performance i've ever seen. latitude, big chill + glastonbury, then a few from things like blur shows in 2009.
no need for the inverted commas implying i'm using them or that they're not real mates, people have volunteered to do this as they're disappointed i don't have a ticket this year and want to help me out, and told me this method after successfully using it before. having a pass out ticket is just more foolproof.
thanks for the other suggestions, highly entertaining.

My tickets came today!
I was signing for an envelope when the bloke said to me, "They're Glastonbury tickets". I was so chuffed!
This is the earliest they've ever got here for me. Anyone else got theirs then?
-
haha, i do actually buy tickets for festivals normally.. so i have a variety from previous years and events which will be on my wrist on the weekend.
and yes, obviously the plan is that a friend comes out with another friend's wristband and ticket, then gives their pass out ticket. they go to another gate and pretend to have lost it, while i walk through as if i've just been to my car.
the point of the thread is the worry of waiting around near the site, because obviously i know there are a lot of security about who may ask questions/want to see my ticket. and i know it'll take a while to get in contact with my mates when they're inside by the friday evening so it could be a few hours/the whole night.

I heard a good toast during a speech. It went something like;
"May the hinges of friendship never seize up, for the want of a drop of lubrication".
You then raise your glass and say "Good health to you all" and then quaff from the glass in front of you.
It may help in the bringing the 2 families together bit.
Good luck. Never an easy job that one.

I don't know anything about digital cameras or the importance of AA batteries but if you are willing to use AAA then this one has been slashed in price.
