    Did they have a place in the south east corner that was open late? I got an amazing sour dough toastie there in '17

    That's the cheese truck. They had a van in shangri la and one at the top of the campsite above the pyramid.  This place is different.

    There was a great toastie place that did macaroni cheese toasties, great carb on carb after a few drinks, pretty sure they were from Scotland, we went back for a second time and they were sold out, anyone know who they were and if they’ll be back?

    I think it was this place:

    I have messaged to see if they will be there again. If they respond I will let you know

    Enjoy! I spend all of Thursday there. Naked Thursday I call it. Lost Horizons is a festival within the festival and is a beautiful oasis of peace amongst all the Glastonbury madness :)

    Haha! Naked Thursday is brilliant!! 

    I can remember chatting to a lovely and very naked couple at my first Glastonbury.  It was Naked festival for them! Don't fancy that?! ?

    The "Tipi Village" is paid for accommodation with them all supplied and assembled by a company.

    The Tipi Field is more along the lines of a community of Tipi users who bring their own.

    ha...beat me to it

  5. @incident posted this a few years ago but it won't let me quote:

    The "Tipi Field" is the collection of Tipis nearest Kings Meadow. It's basically for people who live in their own Tipis and bring them to the Festival. The field is open to the public to visit and has a stage in it (Ancient Futures) and a few other things of interest.

     

    The "Tipi Village" is next door, and is where all the "for hire" Tipis are located, the ones that go on sale in a couple of weeks. It's fenced off and I think access is only to people who've rented there. Details will be on the Festival web-site.

     

    The "Tipi Park" is behind The Park, and is one of the hospitality options - don't think the General Public can rent the Tipis there.

    Biggest news here is the extra speakers.  I don't know whether the complaints on here and emails sent that had any effect, but I'm glad they've taken action!

    This.  My favourite stage is now even favouriter.

    I wonder if there is a taxi rank that could drop at lovefields? I really liked Lovefields and so close to my favourite part, the T&C fields. Haven't done WV

    There is a taxi rank at Glastonbury but access to many of the roads near the festival are via special window stickers.  Even the love fields website says that from the Taxi drop off point you have to get a shuttle bus to PG A.  You would still have to walk across the site.

  8. I should also ask - are you driving??  If you are driving you can park nearby but if you are getting the coach/train then there is a shuttle bus from the drop off point to Worth View. There is no shuttle bus to Love Fields so you would have to lug yourself across the entire site.

  9. Both are close the the gates and in good positions. If the hill bothers you, then go with Love Fields.  The hill is steep, but there is a hand rail and sort-of steps.  It is merciful short though, and the views are rather lovely up there.  I do believe Love Fields is a wee bit more expensive.

    Hi all, I'm going solo to Glastonbury, it's my first Glasto. I got tickets with my then boyfriend and his friends and we then broke up.

    I can't get a response from Camp_Solo on twitter and the website doesn't have any information. 

    Are people from this forum organising to meet up and camp together?

    If you read a few posts up there is a link to an entire thread dedicated to solo campers.  I've done it before and wholeheartedly recommend it!!! Get yourselves organised via that thread.

  11. I've had my ticket checked on the National express before.  In previous years there were separate queues for the different times, but if people didn't arrive they would just fill them with extra people.  The last time I got the coach in 2017 it was kind of one giant queue, but then they called out times and you could jump ahead if that was your coach.   This is important for people who have connecting flights or trains to catch.  

    I think the later you leave it the riskier it is.  

    Edit: I think it depends on if you are in a See coach or a National Express.  I think the former tend to just fill them with whoever is there.

    Still no option to pick your coach time from Manchester unfortunately. I'm hoping 2:00pm is the latest as then it means anything i get this year at least wont be worse!

    Ok, sorry. I seem to remember on ticket day that someone said that this was the first year you were able to pick Manchester coach times.  I think its pot luck otherwise. Fingers crossed for you, but the end result is the same - YOU ARE GOING TO GLASTONBURY! :)

    Might need to give the old girls clothes a check over following 2 years in a unit somewhere.

    Yes, surely this is just a test run.  Would they really dress her and then undress her?!

    Just seen whilst paying my balance that the coach dates will be released during the week commencing the 13th May.

    Just wondering if anybody knew what the potential times of departure are for Manchester, either for this year or last? Last year we were on the 2pm coach on the Wednesday which i presumed was the last one...

    There was a list going around for 2014 but i'm not aware of an updated one since then.

     

    I thought this was the first year that Manchester departures allowed you to pick your coach time??? 

    Did you check the deposit payment email? Mine is from Bristol but it said the coach times on it.

    There’s a place in Chester that does great dosas. Well worth a visit if you’re nearby.

    What's it called???  I go to Chester occasionally and haven't had a good dosa in ages.

    Ring see ... I would think you can cancel it ... the plan not the ticket ... just make sure you make this very clear :) 

    Gosh, Don't even think I would risk it for the fiver it cost me!  Hope I'm not tempting fate.
