    Taking a baby

    We took ours at 10 months but planned to only bring him to half of it then left and dropped him at his grandparents and had a couple of days to ourselves. It worked well and we were lucky with weather. Def hard work but also lovely having him there. Kids fields were wonderful with a baby there.
  2. Thanks for the tip, just had a most enjoyable foray into their stuff on YouTube, now a must see for me too! Loads of energy, looks great fun

    Avalon 2024

    Agreed! 😭 terrible planning
  4. I’ve also recently started enjoying craft ale. It can only downhill from here
  5. Well! In 14 Glastos I have as yet never watched an acoustic headliner. This year I am seriously contemplating all three. I don’t quite know how to feel about that… but it’s definitely making me feel old! Also a few on the undercard I might pop in for if we are near at the time. Hmm
  6. Good to hear! Have used blow up pillows last few years, not bad but not great. Tend to slip out from under your head a lot. Excited about this one!
  7. Just impulse bought a memory-foam pillow. So comfy 😊 Looking forward to taking it to Glasto
  8. 15th all paid up and can’t wait 😊 Line up definitely not the best for us this year but we know better than to let that worry us. We’ll have a blast as always. See you all at LCD!
  9. Went in alongside a friend who was using her sister’s ticket a few years ago. As they both had the same first initial and surname, so had correct bank cards etc in case of being asked, and both looked fairly alike it wasn’t a big risk. Went fine. obvs not quite sneaking in without a ticket, but it wasn’t her ticket
  10. For those who were hoping otherwise, looks like Ren has said he isn’t doing Glasto. I saw a screenshot of a comment he made in some online chat. He did apparently say he is coming to UK in June / July. It’s also looking likely though not confirmed that he’ll be at SGP (but that’s no use to us sadly 😢) Hopefully there’ll be other shows announced yet.
  11. Have seen Patti Smith a few times and she’s always incredible. Would love it if she was there! 🤞
  12. No def didn’t see that. Have now googled and looks like it was 2005, so a wee while ago 😂
  13. Interesting to consider how few repeats I’ve seen! New York Brass Band the clear winner. Florence (John Peel / Pyramid) Laura Marling (Park, Pyramid) Chemical Bros (dance village somewhere as was, Other) Now struggling to think of more, surprised! I’m sure the Killers but not sure when the other one would have been, as well as the 2019 one.
  14. This is painful now. Please Glasto, give us some news! 🙏
  15. Ha ha if only! Not physically possible anymore, he can almost lift me now 😂
  16. This is a question I have wrestled with for years. Been taking our son all his life and yet to watch an in-tent band with him, apart from Bootleg Beatles. He’s preteen now so wondering if we might try it this year. But we usually always head to pyramid for headliners as near home (Cockmill) and easy exit etc. but with this year’s rumoured headliners really not appealing at all (except Stevie) wondering what we’ll do this time … we have a small stand-on box thing in the kitchen for reaching cupboards, maybe that might help!
  17. I always love the theatre and circus fields. The walkabouts always make me smile. We also always wander around permaculture and pause for a bite to eat, and head over to green crafts. It's nice to get away from the crowds for a bit. And the kids fields are really nice places to chill, with kids obvs.
  18. This year was all about Ren for our household. Not much else got a look in!

    Jibbing?

    Our theory on that is that nowadays everyone seems to have such massive tents.
  20. Well, feeling pretty anxious after none of our group getting a sniff of the coach tickets pages. Got a bad feeling about this one and I don’t like it. Also wish it could have been over two weeks ago, the endless waiting is horrible.

    REN

    No idea but will be trying ourselves once we get home. Which in itself is mad, because our household had already bought the vinyl, two cds and the cassette bundle 😂

    REN

    Love the Big Push stuff! Totally agree, incredible talent.

    REN

    He has 1.1million followers on YouTube and the numbers are currently skyrocketing. Not sure he does much on FB to be honest he is mostly active on Twitch but I do follow him on insta. Whether or not he plays anywhere next year is all down to his health sadly.

    REN

    Have to take the moment to bring Ren back up, as it's a very big week for him! In case anyone isn't aware, his album Sick Boi is newly out and doing incredibly well. It's also totally brilliant. It's looking like it will chart at No.2 in the UK, right behind Rick Astley, but it's all to play for this week and every purchase until Thursday night makes a difference. It's an amazing achievement for an independent artist and the album is fantastic, so if anyone is on the fence please give it a listen. Only a fiver to download.
  25. We took some rugs / blankets yes. I always like some insulation under our airbed anyway and it’s nicer for little ones to crawl. We were lucky with the weather so spent lots of time chilling in the grass outside the tent that year, I remember, but was fab to know we had the tent as an option in case of rain. But as others have said the little kids’ area top of kids’ field is great for chilling and letting them play. Also there are sand pits all over the site, we enjoyed stopping at as many as we could one year when he was small. We also had a baby backpack carrier with us that first year which came in handy. Nice memories 😊
