  1. Thank you StoneCircle, that’s brilliant advice, appreciated 🙏 Friend said they had to queue about 2 hours in 2022, so was expecting to.
  2. Different this year as I have a volunteer ticket as a friend’s PA in the assisted campsite. First time I’ll be camping on main site since 2012! Got a B&B Tuesday night (near Podimore), then being collected early doors on Wed as we were only allocated 1 car park pass (understandably). Getting mentally prepared to queue again, as my festival ticket will be at the dedicated gate.
  3. Saw Dua Lipa at John Peel a few years ago. She puts on a very good show, but I don’t/can’t connect at all with her music. Don’t know SZA. Not a fan of Coldplay. So…I will be elsewhere! 😄
  4. Going to see Yard Act in Bristol next Sat. Love their album.
  5. Now I’ve got a volunteer ticket 😊courtesy of a friend (I’m their personal assistant in the disabled campsite), my arrival strategy is different to normal. We are allocated 1 disabled car park pass, so we have to meet along the route (we live at opposite ends of the A303. I’ve booked a BnB for 25 June in a village near Podimore which will allow me to leave my car in their car park until 1 July. Friend will pick me up early doors on 26 June, then we’ll travel in their car to site. So grateful to my friend for inviting me to assist 🙏 Rest of my normal group will be either volunteering or crewing if they don’t get tickets in resale (or win a competition!).
  6. 0 out of 12 people trying. Different parts of country. Apparently had better chance on Virgin BB. 5/24 servers. According to friend’s geek husband who was mapping the traffic.
  7. Not a sniff for any of our extended group. First time ever since 2004 we’ve not got through to the booking form. Congrats to those who got them. Plan B…
  8. You’ll be fine. It’ll clear in the morning when See get around to processing your payment at their end. Had the same with credit card payments in the past being stuck in pending. It’s down to the merchant. You have your confirmation number so all will be well. One year (2010 sales), See contacted me as there’d been an issue with processing my payment. All resolved and I didn’t lose my tickets.
  9. No they’re not. F5 is your best bet.
  10. No problem. He’ll just enter in his new card details when paying the balance. Doesn’t need to the the same card the deposit was paid on.
  11. Good luck all Coach people 🍀 I’ll be in the general melee on Sunday morning 😩
  12. That link is flicking between the holding page and event not found
  13. Ooh, there’s a challenge. In no particular order: QOTSA (Other) 2023 Flaming Lips (Park) 2017 Royal Blood (JP) 2014 Amyl & The Sniffers (JP) 2022 Hot Chip (West Holts) 2017 Neil Young (Pyramid) 2009 Leonard Cohen (Pyramid) 2007 Iggy & the Stooges (Other) 2007 Foo Fighters (Pyramid) 2017 The Prodigy (Other) 2009
  14. Me too. Cost of living crisis kicking in?
  15. Feeling sick about Sunday already. Big concern is this payment authorisation pain. Read on this forum last year that there was a particular issue with Mastercard. Need to decide whether to use Tesco Mastercard or Santander Visa Debit card. Any recommendations? Friend got thru first and paid last year (failed on first attempt but went through ok with different card).
  16. Updated my photo last night. Old photo still looks like me but is over 10 years old. Now waiting for confirmation that the new one’s ok 😬 Will leave until the end of the week then re-register. UPDATE: Approval just came through 👍
  17. Yes, they’ve been selling it in my local Co-op for a year or two. It’s nice.
  18. Fluffy Rock was once of my favourite venues. Some great small acts in there, plus cocktails for £5. A bar had definitely replaced Fluffy Rock for 2019 but can’t remember if it was called “Open Arms” then - think it might have been called something else? Not sure 🤔
