  1. taken a punt and ticket bought 🙂
  2. The first beer......... we drive down from Glasgow in a minibus with me driving so my first beer is the one thats handed to me as we pull into the carpark 🙂
  3. SilverLining If you're anything like the people I've gone with you`ll be pushing it with 6 in a 9 seater, by the time you get everybody's tents, rucksacks and beer in it`ll be a squash 🙂 and if any of them want to bring a sack barrow you're f**ked 🙂 I`d look at stopping nearer to Glastonbury than Birmingham if you can. We never normally leave site until about 3/4pm and always stop in Glastonbury town itself, B&B, Travelodge or premier inn though the last 2 are probably now expensive/soldout. We always (used 😞 ) to go down on the Tuesday and hit the carpark about 10-11pm. they just put you in the normal carparks, Standard ticket. The route we took always brought us to Orange/Pink carpark, It`s the luck of the draw which one you get put into. Another option you`re got is that if you have a car 3 go in that and hire a transit size van (cheaper than a 9 seater so that cover the extra fuel) 3 people in the van with everybody's gear.
  4. Neil93, we always stop at a premier inn/ Travelodge on the Monday night so don`t leave the festival until about 3/4 pm. As to cost the last to years it`s been about £100pp including hire and fuel.
  5. For the first time sine 1981 i won`t at the minute be going as I didn`t get a ticket in the sale, I'm not sure I can wait till the resale on the off chance that I'm lucky. Since 2009 I`ve arranged minibuses for anything between 20 of us, to one year 50 of us. We normally get minibuses and transit vans for the luggage. Neil93, from experience if there are 8 of you then unless you get a 17 seater you won`t have enough room, These have been self drive, you need to bear in mind that to drive a mini bus you need D1 on your licence. Those of us of a certain age got this automatically but you don`t and haven`t for a number of years. message me if you have any other questions.
  6. But a solo person could have a dozen people (who don`t want to go) trying for them, unless of cause the are a billy no mates 🙂
  7. How did you get on? did you get a coach package?
  8. https://www.efestivals.co.uk/festivals/glastonbury/2024/lineup.shtml 🙂
  9. I think the key bit here is "by the 30th April 2024" you can apply well before then and get your application granted(rejected) before then.
  10. Was busy this morning so didn`t try till about 10:45, OH tried first and it said super early bird and early bird both sold out.......... while she was filling in the details I tried on my laptop........ and was able to buy 1 early bird and 1 full price. Weird 🙂
  11. I forgot to turn off the notifications for this topic so it kept pinging so I`ll explain NFRNFC for you No f**king Rain No f**king Compromise = I don`t want any Rain and I won`t Compromise on not wanting any rain (not even to keep the dust down)....... simples 🙂
  12. Been an avid reader of this topic for the past couple of months and would like to thank those that provide the charts and the interpretations of them, I`d like to thank Nal for the fun (there is only one Nal) I won`t be back on this Topic, gotta finish packing and get an early night ready for an early start tomorrow and the Drive down from Scotland but before I go here`s my tuppence worth 🙂 No Rain is the only acceptable option and on that I will not compromise. I`ll Take any temp from 15 to 30 Deg C, my own preference would be towards the higher end. I know that doesn't suit everyone but there you go. Everyone enjoy Glastonbury and stay safe (and dry) anyone going to the meet look out for me I`ll be the one wearing the NFRNFC shirt 🙂
  13. Driving the minibus down from Glasgow, somewhere between Birmingham and Bristol hoping that coma girl and the other 15 people haven't drunk that much that they want to stop at every services for a pee 🙂
  14. Glasto100, we come down from Glasgow every year and always follow the same route:- M6-M5-A39- through Street into Glastonbury and then follow the signs. This is if you want to enter via gate A or D (west side of site), if you want to go to the east Gate B or C then you`d need to cut across somewhere north of Glastonbury town but as we`ve never done it I`m not sure how.
