  1. Managed to get tickets for Koko but just tested positive for Covid this morning. Feels no worse than hayfever but will be touch and go if I can make it on Friday. 🤞🏻

  2. In 2017, we got there around 9.30 and queue for 1.5hrs but when we went back for our second batch of gear around 12, the queues had gone. 
    We got to the gates around 11am in 2019 and walked right in.

    This was gate D for reference. 

  3. We usually get parked by 10.30am on the Weds and make it to the gates from the Pink car park by 11-11.30ish without barely a gate queue at all. We camp in Rivermead so never feel the need to rush in as there's plently of space available, even by Thursday AM.

  4. The new songs sound awesome live, really adds a new dimension to their sound. MTT 420 RR, Progress and Car Crash were particular highlights.

    Show was busy last night (maybe 90-95% capacity but noticeably not full) but found it surprisingly quick to get in and get to the bar, which is always a bonus.

    I'd mark them down as JP headliners, especially with the new light show working best in a dark setting (this tour should come with a epilepsy warning).

    Congrats and good luck doing glasto with a little one i did it with a three month old once we had grannie on standby for emergency collection and babysitting which was a great fallback in a very wet year it felt like a abuse when our little monster wasn't able to have a crawl. 

    Thanks! Yeah, I think we'll play it by ear and decide much closer to the time, especially when we have more of an idea with that the weather might be doing. We're based 4hrs away in Kent, so emergency collection may prove difficult. Hoping the granparents will be willing to take her for the whole 5 days to be honest.

  6. Our first born is due in August, so she'll be about 10 months old by the next festival. I know everyone's different but we're hoping to still make it to Glastonbury next year and aim to rope the grandparents into sitting for the 5 days (we have 3 sets so this could be shared).

    How do you find this site? I’ve ordered a few bits from them last night as the prices were good then looked at their reviews online. They seem to get a lot of 1 star reviews and items don’t appear! 

    I've ordered from them many times previously and never had any issues other than orders taking a while to be dispatched. Got some great deals though so can't really grumble. 10% off for first orders too.

    I can't get out of a sad state of mind today, obvious reasons why but it's very hard to shake. 

    Same. I think yesterday was easier as I could take my mind off of it by working (half heartedly), but the weekend just feels like a waste of time where I know we should all be somewhere better.
