  2. Pop up tents

    in Questions

    Posted

    We bought our first pop-up tent last year to camp somewhere for one night. We like to have a decent amount of space for our stuff and a blow-up bed so were a bit sceptical, but I'd use it for a 2-3 day festival, no worries, and would possibly consider it for Glasto if it looked like being a dry year and didn't need the extra space to dry out loads of wet clothes.

    There's pop-up tents of all sizes and prices here: http://www.decathlon.co.uk/C-359120-pop-up-tents

    Ours was this 4 man one, which they don't seem to have in stock at Decathlon right now, but when they did it was on offer at £54.99 http://www.amazon.co.uk/QUECHUA-SECONDS-IIII-DARK-GREEN/dp/B004GDG6ZU

    I imagine we'll just stick to our 4 man Vango tent instead, but it's such a pain to put up in comparison to the pop-up

    I took a screen grab when our order went through, but looking at it there is nothing to distinguish it from any other order for 2 tickets. There's no reference to anyone's name, registration number, order number etc, so as far as they're concerned it could be a screen grab somebody else took and proves nothing.

  13. 2011 Car Park Tickets

    Where can I find out if there are buses to/from Hereford? As far as I'm aware they only run from big cities, but I could be wrong?

    And not having travelled to Glastonbury by train, if we were to do so then how much waiting would we have at the station for the bus to the festival, and to leave the fesitival site to get back to the station on Monday morning? From what I gather from friends who we were camped with, they had to leave about 6am on the Monday just to avoid waiting for hours to get the train from Castle Cary.

    We got up about 8am, packed up, and were in the car and out of the carpark by 9.15am. I'm not really sure why I'd want to spend an entire day with all my stuff, stood around in whatever weather conditions are thrown at us on that particular day, and cramped up in some tiny seat with loads of smelly people and nowhere to put luggage, and pay shitloads for the privilage. That's without even thinking about how many connections by train or bus would be needed, and time spent waiting around in between.

    I'm pretty sure I'll be paying the £20 for us to park the car. It's not much to avoid all the inconvenience of travelling any other way.

  17. Showers

    i can't believe nobody has mentioned the amazing showers at the bottom of the kids field.

    get there 15 mins before they open and you will only queue for 20-30 mins. awesome showers!!

    also they are very quiet during the evening.

  21. Veggie food?

    This my first time at Glasto so was a little bit worried about food but this thread has definitely put my mind at ease, and now I can't wait to sample all the veggie delights on offer. Thanks guys!

  22. Car Parking Tickets

    in Questions

    Posted

    When I originally bought my Glasto ticket I had no idea how I was going to get there, but having looked into it a bit more I think driving is going to be the best option for me. However, due to being unsure at the time I didn't purchase a parking ticket. Now I can't find anywhere to get hold of one. Is it now not possible to get one, and if so is it possible to pay when I get there or am I going to have to use some other mode of transport?
