Well, looking at that Metcheck Glasto forecast they can f**k RIGHT off. I don't use Metcheck anymore as it's f**ked me over so many times. Useless twunts.

One of my compadres tells me this morning that's he's invested considerable money in some good quality waterproof trousers and a jacket. Purely as a sacrificial offering to the Gods of Fate you understand. If we all prepare for a monsoon, they'll realise we respect them and leave us alone.

As an aside, it looks like the lovely weather we've had all week is going to change to thundery showers just in time for the RATM gig at Finsbury on Sunday. I'm more than prepared to get pissed wet through on Sunday as a further karmic offering. That way I'm sure that Glasto will remain dry and warm, (with a 90% chance of alcohol induced dehydration and sunstroke).

I am also preared for it to chuck it down right through my wedding day on the 19th june, if it can just see it's way to clearing up nicely for the 23rd - 27th.

Great forecasts above guys but just a little bit of humour from last years brief but powerful downpour

I called home and someone had been watching jonathon ross on the box (i know the shame) and he had a weatehr map up which showed almost unintrrupted sunshine except for a gurt black cloud over the glastonbury area.

What a larf hey, you couldnt make it up

I'm attending 3 weddings in the space of 5 weeks later in the year. Now I havent told any of them yet, but I'm more than happy for it to be cold, raining, blowing a gale on all three of those days, in exchange for 5 long, hot, dry, sunny days at Glastonbury.

(Already had my wedding day this year, and it was sunny - sorry about that!)

Actually - it's my dad's birthday on June 19th (it's normally around the same sort of time every year, conveniently).

Speaking on behalf of my father, I too will except torrential rain on this day as long as it clears for Glasto.

My mate's coming. She is a renowned rain god(ess) - Rhodes in August, Egypt in Oct, Peru's Nazca Lines, the list goes on. So, seeing as it frequently p*sses it down at Glasto (I've not yet experienced one without at least heavy downpours), I am VERY confident that her presence will have the opposite effect and we'll have a scorchio fest to remember.

BRING IT ON :D

PS If I am wrong, who cares, it'll still be awesome and I'll be p*ssed on the pear cider ;)

Er hum! I AM the missus! Luckily the Mr is also of the same mind!

It's my mother i've got to convince - she's actually joining us at Glastonbury on the Friday and I have tried to explain to her how difficult she'll find it if it's muddy (she's 68) but she still says we've got to have a sunny wedding! i have to keep working on her!

    • Personal Trainer start a UK tour on 6 Sept and have featured a times. They were kind of there last year in the form of Long Fling (a great set in the Tipi). I could see them being a secret set in the Tipi again. I don’t remember the Bollox new name for the Tipi and never will. 
    • If Shania Twain can fill the legend slot, Duran Duran and Annie Lennox absolutely can.

    • I too am always a bit blurred on what/who constitutes a legend slot but would Sting fit that bill?  Those there said his IoW slot was v good and he has enough of a songbook imo for a Sun afternoon if he uses the Police's 1st 2 albums for a fair chunk of it
