Not only does my Mam know who Stormzy is, she knew who Dave was before I did. Frightening stuff from a 64 year old.

Begrudgingly checking in...

Can someone who is a helluva lot more savvy than me tell me why you have to click through THREE SEPARATE PAGES in the ticket buying process and not just one or two?

Got to the payment page then it just kept timing out saying the servers crashed. Unlucky number 7 for me 😥

Not a soul out there who is better looking than Matty B

I've recently been diagnosed with anxiety but pretty sure it has been underlying for years. I'm lucky in a way as at least half of the group I'm going with this year have faced mental health issues in the past or are currently dealing with them now so I'm fairly confident there is mutual understanding and empathy amongst us all. It's important to make sure you don't force yourself to do anything you don't want to, just because everyone else you're with is doing it or going there etc. There's no shame in needing some time out or an early night or avoiding certain parts of the site because they're extremely crowded. I'm not claustrophobic but I can't think of anything that would spoil my enjoyment more than queueing to get in one of the late night areas at peak time

This thread is just too much and we're only 4 pages in. Someone Great - LCD Soundsystem was the surprise tearjerker for me last year. I usually cry a handful of times at the festival and I've no doubt this year will be no exception especially as it's the last before the fallow. I've been known to have a weep on the Saturday afternoon because it's "nearly time to go home"

lets win this argument with vitriol and some good old fashioned misogyny...that'll work

I've just noticed a couple of pairs for £4 and £5, too

Dunno about decent but I got knee high socks from ASOS, £6 a pair. Hopefully they'll be comfy enough with gel insoles..

Seeing that woman with her head squashed between his legs with "NICK CAVE" written across her face was just bloody marvellous
