I don't know if it genuinely has any impact but the year I was on the early one I got tickets straight away, the year I was on the late one I got them last minute so from that it looks like they fill them up as they go.
I think you're right on that - I get the coach from Reading, not Liverpool, but in 2016 and 2017 I was on a fairly early coach and had got my tickets in October. In 2015 my coach wasn't until 2pm and I had got my tickets in the resale that year.

The 'deposit and balance' scheme is an accountancy wheeze to avoid (not evade!) tax by splitting the income across different years.
nah, I think the deposit and balance would both be treated as deferred income until after the festival took place anyway

Lasted ages last year, I didn't think it would happen at all this year due to the lack of wellies, but I currently can't really feel the ends of my big toes! Hope it goes away quicker this year

You can see what I think is a family field to the right of JP and it looks absolutely spotless. Shame about the other camping fields

Camp next to us didn't peg down their gazebo and we were almost taken out by it taking off from the ground, over 2 big tents and legs down towards several of us sitting around our camp on Thursday morning

If you email it to yourself, when you go to send it, it asks what size you want to email it at. Then pick up the image from your emails and it will be at the smaller file size.
Thanks! I've run out of upvotes from liking other photos, but have this picture of the early evening sun at the pyramid on Sunday instead

I like the flags. Some are really funny, I think they create more of an atmosphere and look good in front of the stage, and they're great for finding people. That said I'm really short so rarely get a good view of stages anyway, flags or not.
Ban chairs near stages though

Anyone know how to reduce the file size of a photo on an iPhone? I can't upload any because they're over 2mb

Booked today off for this reason because I knew I wouldn't cope with it! I'm still in bed

Think I could end up in this from Sunday night! I barely remember any of ed sheeran
I do remember telling people when we were sitting under the meeting point tower afterwards though that "we're not on drugs we're just on cider"

We're here with 3 older kids & have been caught out twice unexpectedly by crowd crushes. Last night after arcadia & today during kaisers. Security told us last night that the predicted crowd numbers for last night all wrong - less than thought at radio head/s e corner, far more at park/arcadia. Today at kaisers we had to get out the crush by traders at Back of Other stage as daughter ill. One trader told me he'd never seen it so bad in 15 years & at 430pm. Loads of kids there not happy. Mix of JC crowds & Liam they reckon....odd that no loudspeakers/public addresses used to help control crowd as they do in other major festivals.
I think this wasn't helped by the issue on the railway line..Woman lying on the ground next to a tractor and lots of police round it in the middle of the path. I hope she was alright

Fear not. Took me exactly 60 mins from gate opening at 7 to wristband on. Tent now pitched and first beer open. Sun is shining. Can't express this contentment... and it will be yours soon. All worthwhile.
Yeah it actually moved really quickly! Unfortunately the rest of my group are at gate d which seems to be really slow...I'm sitting alone surrounded by my stuff and hoping I can save the space, they think they'll be another 1-2 hours

On my way! Well, standing outside my flat waiting for my taxi to the coach to arrive

Download full sets from iplayer

Hi,
Sorry for asking this as it may have been asked before but for personal reasons I haven't been able to have a proper look through this forum, or on iPlayer for the sets I'd like to keep to watch later/catch up on bands I didn't watch at the festival. My laptop is also rubbish so I think it would struggle with downloading the software to try and download myself (especially with the time available before things start disappearing from iPlayer at the end of the month) but appreciate I am asking a lot without anything to really give back.
Does anyone already have a lot of the sets downloaded they could give a list of I could select from and email them to me/put somewhere I could download at a later date?
Equally please let me know if that is a really unreasonable request (I think I do have some on my computer which I downloaded from someone on this thread after 2017 though).
Thanks,
Laura
