That’s lovely!

He dreamed of going, would watch it on tv every year and never got to (we were going to do it the year I didn’t get tickets but he passed away before we could go/get them in the resale) so I thought maybe doing a plant or something means in some way he’s always there.

Not correct, you’re in the same queue and at the mercy of coach times

Definitely can’t get near, best bet as others have said is to do bath and west or meet at sticklinch/worthy view if they’re camping there

Some are fab, some are like drinking mud. From memory, the good were pretty pricey but there was a few places where the coffee was amazing (probably also because I NEEDED one)

The days of the secret resale closer to the festival are long gone too

Shuttle is good, would you have to queue to get back in? I’m trying to remember how it works

Get some fabulous views of the site from it

I missed out last year and one of my dad’s favourite bands played. I asked a load of people here to raise a glass for him as he sadly died a couple of years ago during a particular song and had a lovely video a friend filmed for me of some people raising glasses to him. I’m hoping to get back to the farm one year to plant something for him there (apparently there’s a place in the green fields that lets you do it)

Arcadia isn’t by the other stage anymore, it’s up by the park in its own field. A lot of the great food stalls have gone, Ghandis flip flop was a personal fave but I couldn’t find it last time I went. The camping has changed a bit and some of the public camping is how hospitality and staff

Keep an eye on the page, they put the returned tents up straight away so you may still get one. I think strictly speaking they can’t be resold (might be wrong)

I’ve only got one reg…

Most you have to give your registration number to Glastonbury so they’ll void the win if you’ve already got tickets (it’s in a lot of the terms and conditions for the comps)

They hadn’t put the promotional packs out yet at all mine so I’m going to have to go for another hunt. Did pick up some more cheese and beer

I drove to three different coops to find that damn tea…

Same. Just had some of the orange brothers for the first time. It’s bloody delicious! Tastes like orangina

I don’t generally go for the line up, just love doing all the other bits and exploring the music. We are about 20 mins away from womad so we were thinking of that

This is identical to mine, with a can of brothers alongside for good measure

Any recommendations for glasto alternatives?

Oh really? I’ve got nothing

I’m confused by coop. No acknowledgement of entry when you buy cheese and beer! And all the tea wasn’t the new promotional packs yet.

They’ve picked them all now

When I wasn’t there last year I watched it on tv and had a cry 🤣 I’m ticketless again but hoping by some miracle I find a way there and not have to repeat the same sad affair. It was quite nice to see the coverage though

As someone who’s got tickets the week of the festival before, I agree!

I think because it says you can only enter the promotion once it’s a one per person rather than one per pack situation
