    Although I am resigned to the fact that I'm probably not going to go this year, I will still be on alert all day every day on the brief hope of a flash sale.

    Just in case anyone from SeeTickets is reading this, It's actually my birthday today if you fancy getting me something nice....

     

    Happy birthday! Fingers crossed for a birthday miracle for you!

    Found it, but no date. Sure there was another post with a date.

    In the past I think there have been at least 2 small "secret" resales. I know my friend got one a couple of weeks before in 2011. In 2010, my friend got one 2 weeks after the original sale completely by chance as See put a small number of tickets back on sale and announced on Twitter

    Hey all

    We officially stepped down from the ticket search as of yesterday. We emailed to cancel our TF tent, and we're figuring out alternative plans while in the UK. This morning's flurry gave me momentary hope that sod's law was going to reward y'all for us quitting.

    It honestly sucks. I've had "Get Glasto tickets" on my whiteboard since this time last year when we decided we were going. We put in every effort in every sale to get our tickets and didn't manage to do it. The bitter person within me is mad that so many people who clearly don't want it/have already been a million times got tickets, and we failed. The good person in me knows it's all a crapshoot, and there's nothing more we could have done.

    So our search is over. For this year (and next) at least. I do worry life won't allow us another chance, but who knows - what will be will be. 

    Thanks for all the entertainment and keeping me sane enough to keep the hope until now. You are all wonderful people, and the bitter me once again raises her ugly head to get mad that we don't all have tickets, and they do. But they don't have the knob jokes we have, and therefore we are all wealthy in our own way.

    Much love and ongoing hopes for those remaining in the search. Koala out! x

    Really sad to hear this. Thanks for all the times you've made me laugh out loud x

    Nice! I hope he was dancing in his denim shorts.

    I love how innocent his response was when being interviewed they asked what he though about people taking drugs at his festival, he said something like 'Nooooo, do they? Do you think so?'

    He was! We got a photo with him but it turned out blurry. Gutted!

    Amazing, i reckon we would have all done the same. Everyone whos met him says he's a lovely bloke. Only seen him once singing a song on stage in Avalon, would love to shake his hand one day.

    I met him once during a Craig Charles set, possibly in 2011. In that Pussy Parlure tent. He was such a nice guy, obviously! :D

    Morning all. I'm off to a regional burning man event today so I'm a little preoccupied. Also, it's memorial day weekend which means Monday off, and no connectivity out in the woods. All my backup bookers are away at Bearded Theory too, so if it happens this weekend it was never meant to be.

    Hope you're all keeping busy doing the things that make you happy. Life is a one-time chance, so fill it with things that make you smile every day :)
     

    Have an amazing time! I am following you on Instagram :D

    I'm off to see my husband and dog for the first time in 6 weeks and I cannot wait!

    Have a good weekend everyone!

    I'm staying on here irrespective. Nothing has changed.

     

    In fact....I may stay on here forever as its more fun than working.  Still dreaming of a meet up with you all on Wednesday in one of the bars where we laugh about how we could ever have doubted we'd get tickets.

     

    Ditto! I sincerely hope this happens!

    Are you going to keep it secret ? and give out last minute tickets for it ?

     

    You have to hang around by the cider bus for 3 hours on the Wednesday and then location will be revealed. You then have 90 seconds to get there

    Has something been arranged already? When? where? Shall we all wear knobs on our heads? (sorry going a bit crazy now)

    Dress code: knobs, koalas and Ron Burgundy

  10. Morning everyone! Got a super busy day at work today so can't be around much. Will have my phone glued to me and fully prepared to abandon whatever I'm doing to run back to my desk if needs be!

     

    Fingers crossed it's today!

    Sad to hear some of you are almost ready to give up, totally get it though, especially those of you not even in the country. Good to hear some of you are sticking it out til the end like i plan to. Hope to see you all tomorrow morning! I'm off to the pub x

    Have fun! See you in the morning for another day at the fun factory! :D

    Still sorry about that. I was referring to getting to a certain page number and only realised what I'd done when it was too late. Oops! 

    I have almost returned to normal working habits. I still believe it will happen but not for a while yet. With the other options I've pursued all come back with nothing I've got to hold on to this.

    It's gonna happen right? Right?! :(

     

    YES. Definitely!

     

     

     

    I think....

    It does sound like SEE are busy processing things and that a 'flash' sale is the last of their priorities. It's the main thing that is giving me hope even as another day apparently passes.

    Ditto. Clinging on to See's apparent disorganisation!

    It's really frustrating to know that lots of people will still not go after deciding at the eleventh hour that it isn't for them or that the toilets will be too much.  I've given the best part of 3 weeks to this and would give anything for a ticket but there's only so hard we can try and so late we can leave it.....  The community spirit on here over the last 3 weeks has been tremendous and i'll be back in 2 years time to help out even if i've secured my own tickets.  Back in work tomorrow so my access to the pages will be much more limited.

    And so many people won't enjoy it while they're there because of the toilets! Grr!

    The community spirit on here has been amazing and it's been an absolute pleasure to be even a small part of it - endless waiting, occasional doom and lots of (possibly fruitless) hoping aside! I'll also be back in 2 years to help if I've managed to get tickets. Such great people on here!

    Absolutely..and thousands more not on this thread. You both defo deserve to be there. I feel almost guilty that i have a ticket and that you guys and my sister don't. 

    No almost-guilt required! You deserve to be there too! :)
