A little "usherette" style tray, and a sh!tload of Skittle Vodka for a euro a shot would fill the gap admirably! :rolleyes:

I think cheesy 80's pop disco is a great theme...anyone for the Chicken Song and Superman and Agadoo? Tinsel wigs galore! Who's bringing the shuttlecocks?

I love the way an idea tends to snowball on here :( . The curtains could easily be overcome by the addtion of those fly catcher type affairs am sure the pound shop can supply and they are lightweight - some gaffer tape and away we go.

I'd rather go cheesy 80s songs that thought they were being taken seriously. Hence Club Tropicana etc. But it's trivialities relative to the big idea.

As for shuttlecocks, how about the efests Olympics instead of World Cup, 3pm Pyramid Field on the Wednesday?

Oh lord..it begins!

Tbh...I wondered if the Efest Footy may (and may still become) something bigger next year...kinda hopefully snowball into a celeb 5 a Side thing maybe?

Does anyone recall the 5 A Side affairs at the Phoenix Festival? Ok so it was incorporated into the festy with an arena, seating and proper commentary and so on...but could not something be pulled off possibly?

BUT...Efest Olympics??? Eeep! Ace!

Perchance an idea that could get started small scale for 2010 but by 2011 be an event to REALLY pull the crowds in the year before the REAL big event???

The Nimbin Mardi Grass in Oz is a good example for silly Olympics...the Bong Throw and Yell, Fastest Spliff Rolling, Adverse Conditions Rolling, Blindfold Rolling, IronMan...;)

Excellent ;)

Shambala last year apparently had binocular-football where all wear binoculars and indulge in many an inadvertent air-kick. I'm sure they had lots of other silly stuff that I can't recall.

I've personally always wanted to set up an orienteering course round Glasto, for the jaw-dropping of newbies and the reaquaintance of regulars. Finish at Cider Bus of course, & probably have to navigate to 'refreshment' areas on the way. Is orienteering at all scouty? What sports are scouty?

Bloody hell - I say this:

We got invited to join a tunnel party as well at one point when walking through, it would have been a great idea if we weren't striding purposefully through on the way to do something (haven't a clue what it was now...). Definitely tunnel party next year! :D

Bloody hell - I say this:

then am away for a few days and come back on here to all this?? Funny what happens from a minor throwaway comment!!

Hoping this doesn't all actually happen though, as the tunnel is genuinely helpful for avoiding the crowds - with all this sudden madness it's going to be as bad as the railway track!!! :D

And Lucy - careful!! Remember how stressed you were this year from feeling you'd taken on too much? :)

    • Too good for the legends slot 
    • We had a really good weekend this year. This was our 2nd year after giving it a go last year with 3 year old twins (we do Glasto but don't take the kids and have no plans to in the distant future!!).   Highlights of the weekend for me was Peter Hook & the Light, English Teacher, Flaming Lips, Adult DVD and Alex James (I get the karaoke thing but I still thought it was great). Missed loads of acts we wanted to see due to having two kids in tow but overall we left happy with what we managed to see across the weekend. Some great food vendors, good to see Steak Frites make an appearance this year, one of my faves from Glasto. Festival is really well run, toilets remained clean and stocked with loo roll all weekend, even on Sunday night/Monday morning. The walk from the cars is a ballache but it is what it is, arriving Thursday evening meant we were parked as far away as you could be.   My only gripe is that there seems to be a trend of parents letting their teenagers camp completely separately to them in family camping. We had a large group of 15-17 year olds near us who came home pissed up every evening at 3-4am being really loud and annoying! I get that it's a festival etc but I think it's taking the piss a bit letting your kids camp separately and disrupt everyone else.   All in all we had a really good time and are looking forward to next year.
    • Haha, was about to say! I'd def put more stock in the exit poll than a sh*t joke on Bluesky. Thanks for panicking me though. 😁
    • f**k! "Susan Hall" Jesus. Ok, calm down.
