There's currently a Big Blob of High pressure situated over the UK on Monday, need it to stick, haven't been this nervous since having that op to appease the Weather Gods!

The good thing is is that the weather down there at the moment is lovely sunny and dry which means the ground is harder...

haha, I'm British but I live in Germany, I've a German girlfriend who owns a "dirndle" (those push up dresses that are in all these pics) AND I work in Munich so we get reserved seating for the Oktoberfest and it is better than it seems, 2 weeks of solid drinking of "mass" beer (the large 1 litre/2pint glasses in these pics), the beer over here is some of the best in the world with no added chemical cr@p like you get in the Uk (therefore not so bad hangovers), Augustiner and Paulaner beers are the best in my opinion if you do ever come over..

2 days til I leave for the Uk and Glastonbury, until then I'm off to a beer garden to be served by lovely girls in push up dresses to watch the football and eat a huge plate of sunday roast.. life is hard

That's the weather sorted then. From your luck, I doubt you even know what rain is.

PS if you report good weather, I'm expecting a picture of your girlfriend in her dirndle ;)

Met Office update for today

UK Outlook for Tuesday 22 Jun 2010 to Thursday 1 Jul 2010:

Most areas of the UK should see plenty of fine and dry weather next week, with extended sunny periods and just a low risk of some showers developing inland from time to time. Northwestern areas may well be cloudier with occasional rain, although there should be periods of drier and brighter weather here too. Winds will be fresh at times in the northwest, but should stay light or moderate elsewhere. Beyond the weekend, many areas will remain mainly dry but there is a risk of more unsettled weather spreading from the west. Temperatures are expected to be warm at first, locally very warm in the southeast, but are likely to return to near normal in northern and western parts towards the end of the month.

Here's some more good news. This is from a mate who's a forecaster at the met office. His forecasts have been pretty much spot on the last 2 years:

"Weather for Glasto looking very good - mainly dry, settled, warm. Take suncream (keep wellies on hand in case something changes!). But yeah, only a low risk of the odd shower and might be warm to very warm category (if that's not too technical!)."

    • Skylink is 24 hours... But the skylink will drop you off at Pegasus business Park or EMA (East Midlands Airport) where you'll have to use the Download shuttle link, which isn't 24 hours. The last shuttle from the Download transport hub to EMA is 12:15 TrentBarton / Local bus info here: https://www.trentbarton.co.uk/download2026   Skylink Derby / Leicester / Loughborough timetable here: https://www.trentbarton.co.uk/services/skylinkderby  Shuttle timetable here: https://www.trentbarton.co.uk/userfiles/hotel.pdf If you miss the shuttle, which is very doubtful, you'll just have to find another way to EMA / Pegasus business park, maybe a taxi. You could even walk to EMA from the Download transport hub, wouldn't take too long. Just make sure you use the airport's 'circular path' instead of the dangerous roads.  I walk the circular path often, it's nice and easy. I would post instructions but I very much doubt you'll miss the shuttle, and if you do, it isn't hard to work out. The footpath is clearly signposted from directly opposite / across the road from where the download map has labelled "Pickup and Drop Off Exit." 
    • So for Harry Styles it was actually a plastic bag that basically blocks the view of the front and back cameras. You can still use the phone screen. It's much easier than using lockers, especially for people leaving for the last train etc    I think it's basically reliant on the threat of security kicking you out if you start filming.
    • Hey, does anybody have a joining link for the WhatsApp group plz? I know the secret sets get posted there but have a new phone and number
