Scrump

Ok, glad it wasn't just me that thought that!

Caught gojira by chance there as I was getting there extra early for idles. Was an excellent find!

This all sounds unbelievably delightful!

I was at front for the jack white gig on the park stage in 2022. This dude rocks up half an hour before and starts chatting to the nice couple next to me about how he's here on a volunteering ticket but only bothered with one shift before deciding to jack it in. He then fills two empty pint cups with urine and places them on the other side do the barrier for someone else to deal with.. stays for 15 mins of the set and then leaves. My only regret in 41 years on this planet is that I stopped myself from pouring his own p*ss over him.

What are people's extended arrival strategies? You're in... Tent is up... What does the next 2 hours look like? This year I think it will be the classic straight to the cider bus for me!

This was me last year!

Probably already said it here but we're a group of 3 all arriving separately. Me on coach, one in car and one tbd (hoping they're gonna lift share but they don't actually know each other,I'm the common factor) I arrive about half 2 on Wednesday. No idea when they'll get to the farm. Then begins the attempt to meet each other and get camp sorted. Yet to decide on a camping area... Watch this space for tedious updates!

Ok I'll bite haha. Christmas for me is good enough without the presents. Family, food, bit of telly. I'm super fortunate that these things are good in my house. Presents are good, sometimes amazing yes, but if you took them away from me I wouldn't be bothered. Glasto the same, it's bloody amazing and doesn't need the secret sets. They're good, sometimes amazing, but I can live without them. I've seen people spend time worrying about the quality of them etc when it feels like they could just crack on with enjoying the festival, which already has plenty to offer. Just my opinion, super happy to be in the minority. Id never tell someone else how they should enjoy the farm. Tbh this is one of those things you get to worry about then you've got a ticket so I'm gonna just appreciate that privilege!

Yeah I totally get this and don't get me wrong I was at the churnups/foos and it was awesome! Made better for me by the 1hr cap. But for it to be a thing every year would kill it for me. It would be possibly be a thing that I'd end up expecting to be perfect and then being disappointed with . Once and done for me ! Unless it's pulp....

This doesn't seem to be the consensus here but... I really hope the whole churnups thing doesn't become standard. I find it weird to expect a surprise. Not a huge fan of there almost having to be secret sets as well. I know I sound like a right grumble guts !

Exquisite bump more like. This thread passed me by somehow, great work @Franky I've had a good chortle !

Ah ok thank you. I read it as all the bris/bath coaches were sold out so they had no choice but to go from elsewhere. @razorrucki hope you get someone gives you some more details on your actual question 👍

Despite paying on Monday I've checked the confirmation email at least 5 times...

That was my thinking as well. So we've got to assume the friend just happens to be an idiot, unrelated to glasto. Like they say, if you look at your group of friends and can't see the idiot then it's you! Apart from my group of friends anyway. We don't have an idiot....

I'm racking my brains to try and figure out why this makes him an idiot! But that's beside the point as all will be forgotten the moment you've got that wristband on I'm sure! As for your actual question I've got no idea sorry but hope it's a smooth one. Depends on what time it leaves as well I guess.

My group has now all paid up and I genuinely think some would have forgotten if I didn't nag them

I've been trying to figure this out all day hah

Good point but... tbh I don't crumble for the fruit

Fully expecting down votes here but... After hearing all the hype ( including a sales pitch from billy brag) I had a crumble shack crumble and thought it was mediocre. No idea what the fuss is about. And I do love a crumble.

I'm sensing a change to the thread's title!

@tedmaullove the positivity mate!

Never been more gutted to be out of upvotes!

So.... Can you use your mum's passport or not?

Would also encourage solo people to make the Wednesday meet up. Did it for the first time last year (after a few years of walking past nervously) and had a great time!

Why is this? Not being inflammatory just interested.
