    I didn't get a ticket last year, first time since 2007 and it was...fine. Got over the initial disappointment and moved on.

     

    Didn't watch it on telly cos I'm never that fussed about watching music on TV, it always fails to capture the essence of it. And I'd never rewatched sets I was at when I got home anyway, so I definitely wasn't going to start watching sets I wasn't at. I'll be honest I can't remember what I did last year over Glastonbury weekend. Just got on with my life I guess. Was surprisingly painless. And decided against trying in the resale this year. Having broken the habit, much easier this year, things can exist without me being there. I'll live, the festival will continue. Current plan is to try on T-day this autumn and if that doesn't work, not bother with the resale.

    Still after a light double airbed if anyone has a suggestion, am very wary of self inflating as just can’t see how it would be think enough and happy to pump it up but my one is so heavy and it takes up half my bag. Needs to be a double I don’t want to buy 2 and attach them 

     

    Delighted with this. Only a single tho. Dunno why youd want a double?

    But these doubles look good

    So happy to be back here on this thread!!

    Trying to understand where you all get your info from, guessing way too far in advance what the weather will be, will I need gaitors or not, knowing full well it really doesn't matter because 27hrs ago, we didn't have tickets!! 

     

    It can do it's worst (And I felt it in 2007!) it's still my favourite place on the planet!

    We wont know what the weather for gates open will be until the Monday of the festival. Maybe Sunday before. And we won't know what the weather for Saturday/Sunday of the festival will be until we're actually on site.

     

    But that doesn't stop people starting threads a year in advance.

     

    As for the info, in a few weeks someone will open the gates of Broadmoor and Rampton and give the escapees internet access to a weather forecasting model for them to post on here in between meals where they eat their family members spleens.

    It’s an example of correcting a problem that didn’t exist. It’s so marginal the Coventry player got no advantage. It just sucked the emotion out of the game.

     

    And even the Coventry celebrations were slightly subdued as theres always a chance it'll be pulled back. 

     

    His baby toe being offside 10 seonds previously gave Coventry no advantage and it ruined what would've been one of the greatest moments in FA Cup history and the history of the club.

    Certainly VAR piping up and disallowing the fairytale moment that would've been Coventry knocking out Man Utd in the semis for a 1mm offside isn't exactly going to help with calming the "f**k VAR" crowd. Doubly so after Man Utd won the shoot-out to set up another boring-boring all-rich six FA Cup final.

     

    I'm firmly in that crowd to the point I don't really watch footie anymore.

     

    I'm a Utd fan but that was an absolute disgrace.

    GNR headlined last year despite allegations against Axl Rose being well-documented in the public domain, so Glasto hasn't exactly done a good job recently.

     

    Or ever if we're starting at this again.

     

    GnR, Bowie, Rod Stewart, Iggy, Jagger, Ronnie Wood, Bill Wyman, John Peel, Page & Plant, T-Rex......
