They do that at Camp Bestival as well and it works really well, but the fields there are a bit less "rugged" before the fest in the first place (often been knee deep in nettles when parking up at Glasto!). I also wonder about the extra vans this year as it is very much pot luck how much space you get depending on the stewards directing you to your space. We always used to go on Thursday (arrive about 11am) and for around 6 years always ended up about half way down E14 with lots of space left in the field. 2017 we went Wednesday (arrived around 1pm) and ended up much closer to the lane on E14 i.e. the fields were fuller and the field was almost full by that time as they seemed to be giving everyone loads and loads of space - not sure where they put the extra vans that would have turned up later Wwd/Thur! Then last year Wednesday again around 1pm we were in E18 and had to argue with the steward to get a bit more space for our awning and friends tent and they wanted up parked about 1ft away from the next van and there was loads of space in E14 on Thursday. "There is no pattern" to misquote the hashtag

Happy New Year lovely people, not been around for a while due to life, flu, xmas, family stuff.... Hope you are coping @lucyginger Hope everyone else had a festive time and is now in full recovery mode. Glastonbury 2020 is this year!!! All of those on the resale train make sure we know on here as I am sure plenty will be offering help. xxx

Oh Lucy what awful news, glad you are being looked after, sending you a virtual hug xxxx

Yep west is no more - now more pre erected camping. We always went east anyway so no big issue for us other than lots more trying. Are you staying chez H and yeti again next year?

Me too @carlosj ! Was quite concerned when they cut out west but got through about 7.05. I never get a sniff in the ticlet sales but always get the groups cv tickets. See you in East!

popping in to say hello and see how all you loons are doing? Not much to report here other than off to see Kate Tempest this Sunday, then Frank Turner a couple of weeks later, good luck to any of those waiting on the ballot and hope your cockles are being warmed whatever you are up to xx

They did ... and are back next year, they will be handing round flavoured vodka like old hands next time

It was my friends! They loved it ? You also tried some of my cherry Bakewell and said it had" a touch of the benylin" about it - wont be using that cheap amaretto again ? must try harder next year
