    @Pinhead @Neil @Skip997 so really..... when do you think you’ll call it a day? I only ever intended to go to one festival (2015). But now can’t see me not trying for tickets for years to come. So... if it’s not to delicate a question, what age are you? When do you think, it just becomes too much of a physical ordeal? ( @Neil aware of your situation through this forum, and recognise things may be different for you) but really, when do you call it a day? I’m 60 this year, and every year, I think it’s my last, but every ticket day I can’t stop myself. The trip to and from is horrible for me, being in Scotland. I think if I lived closer, I’d have longer. I’m now resigned to pushing it as long as I can, but have no idea how long that is.

    Well I'm not one to tell people when they're too old for something. I did my first Glastonbury in 2017 at the age of 64, this will be my fourth and I'll be there for 9 days working in the Oxfam shop traipsing back and forth from the Oxfield to the Park, and I'm as excited as a kid at Christmas.

    I know somebody who did his first in 2019 at the age of 68, this will be his third and he flies in from the USA.

    You're too old when, for whatever reason, you're no longer enjoying it and have stopped dancing.

    They usually put the green stripes on a couple of days later.

    I thought last year it was green and they added the yellow stripes?

    Does anyone know the size of Arcadia spider this year?

    Last year I think it was a slightly smaller version than some previous years. I am thinking when they had a bigger show when some mini-spiders hung upside down on long suspended lies and dropped orbs with creatures inside

    The spider itself is the same size as always. You're thinking of when they bought the metamorphosis show which had all the add-ons, that hasn't been around since 2017.
