  1. Could also be a result of the (growing?) demand for tickets. I've got a place with Oxfam this year and that's solely down to the fact that I'm ticket less. Looking forward to it actually, but there's no way I won't turn up - aside from the ethical issue of shafting a charity and the other volunteers, there's also the selfish point of view that I may well need to go the same route in 2020.

    Cucumber is the work of the devil. Not only does it taste shite, it taints any other food it comes into contact with.  

    Absolutely agree. Terrible stuff...

    Hendricks. Fantastic combo. Celery is the true food of the devil. 

    Followed by a quick u-turn. The Hendricks Paradox, turning cucumbers into essential accompaniments since 1892.

     

    Celery is awesome though.

    Not sure what happened there, think I might have jumped the queue! Clicked refresh and it took me straight through.

    Although be aware that you have 45 minutes to complete you transaction so keep an eye out in about half an hour...

     

    On which site?

    I went to Radiohead at the Roundhouse but don't recall getting ID'd, although they've been pretty strict in the past when I've been to the iTunes festival there, so the chances are it's down to the venue to enforce and whether they can be bothered or not.

    I got ID'd when I picked my ticket up and on the way in. I did go in quite soon after doors, I wonder if they slack off the checks as the queues stack up

    Cheers for the heads up. Probably would’ve missed this as I assumed the presale would be tomorrow/Thursday.

    Completely skint at the moment so could really do without this and Foals... but eh, fuck it

    Presale is today at 0900. Anyone want a code? 

     

    Although looking at the code, it may well be generic

    Congratulations.

    Yes I'm also looking forward to relieving myself of any parental responsibilities in return for a stewarding slot. When I mentioned the (v.small) chance of getting early shifts I got very raised eyebrows!! So not sure I'll be ticking that box on the application next week.

    The amount of donteventhinkaboutit I got when I mentioned Saturday was, in my opinion, wholly disproportionate to the fact that it is a mere two days before Monday.

    Not headliner related, but check out this bit of news

    https://www.edp24.co.uk/news/refunds-over-great-british-cycling-festival-event-1-5893336

    Pertinent quote being:

    He told BBC Radio Norfolk: “There happens to be a very large event happening in the UK that same weekend in Glastonbury and that has literally hoovered up most of the people who have the power to stop traffic.

    Literally hoovered!

    !!!Literally hoovered!!!

    I have questions. How big's this fucking hoover for starters.

    Other vaccuum cleaners are available...

    The same happened to me, I phoned them and have since received an email to say that the space is reserved and the excess charges will be refunded over the next few days. (The payments did/do show as pending on my account)

    Fingers crossed for you

    Yep, just had a similar email. Time to get excited again!

  9. Still waiting to hear if I'm confirmed. I had five bashes at payment and had them all authorised but had an error each time saying my place couldn't be reserved. So there's £1250 authorised to go out, but no email or pending transactions. 

    I know Oxfam have said if the money's been taken then you've got a place, but technically my money hasn't been taken, it's just sitting there. I'm sure I'll get everything extra back, but still waiting to hear if I've got a place. Anyone else got similar going on?

    Is this something that is to be trusted? Some of the info is pretty vague - with Childish Gambino OR Liam G subbing? Seems pretty uncertain/weird info to have. 

    Key slot? LG headlining Other?

    I don't ever remember a frantic F5 session to get a camper ticket.

     

    Maybe time has played a trick on me but I seem to recall it was easy enough providing you were there for the start of the sale.   

    It was weird last time around. I bought four for four different people, one after the other (with their reg numbers) as they couldn't even get on the holding page - so it was an F5 session for them whilst I waltzed through. No idea why.
