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!)."

The weather is decided. I have a pig of a toothache. The dentist has patched it up temporarily, and prescribed me penicillin. But it still hurts like hell, and the followup appointment isn't until after Glastonbury.

So my festival will be spoiled by a toothache. I don't see how the Fates could in good conscience punish me with both that *and* rain, therefore it's going to be dry throughout.

Met Office:

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.

Anbesol and copious amounts of whiskey are your friends!....had a bitch of a toothache at EP a couple of years back, sweet liquor certianly eases the pain (with the occasional dab of benzocaine!)...

As I have previously mentioned a mate of mine owns/runs netweather.tv.......his words to me are

"My weather forecaster says currently weds light rain, mild thurs less rain, getting warmer, gets better for the weekend but poss chance of light rain most days"

Not quite sure what to make of that. :unsure:

    • First time for me, really enjoyed it. Nice venue, nice weather, good vibes, etc.   Notes on performances: CMAT's a great performer - seen her live twice now.  GANS are my favourite new act since Big Special, and live they're fantastic. Fellow Brummies too, so I'm all about that. The album's a bit disappointing though. Primal Scream were great, although I felt the crowd seemed a bit muted. The Libertines sounded knackered. Not sure they're suited to a festival. First time seeing The Royston Club, thought they were very good - the tent seemed to be full of kids on each others shoulders singing along. I'm all about that. First time seeing the K's, a bit disappointed. Didn't like his voice, and I felt like every song sounded the same as the last one. Sarajevo is a good tune, though. It still sounds like all the others, just a bit better.  The Maccabees and Two Door Cinema club were a but underwhelming, but Pelican by the Maccabees is a banger. It all sounded a bit Travis/Early Coldplay to me though. The Wombats took me by surprise - I expected 1 1/2 hours of 'Let's Dance to Joy Division' style indie-landfill, so I was surprised to hear that some of the rest of their stuff had dynamics and range. I still don't think they're any good, but I can't say they didn't surprise me either. Just not my thing.   Surprise of the weekend for me was Rizzle Kicks. Never listened to them before, but they got me out of my tent and into the arena as I was trying to nurse a hangover and I thought it was a blast.    Will probably go next year too.  
    • Not really anything to say other than the fact I'm down at Opeth and this has been a cracking summer by and large here. Few duds, plenty of sellouts, strong weather, and the craft beer is cheaper than the regular bar. Winner winner, chicken dinner! 
    • Pink Floyd night on sky arts time for me  to wallow in nostalgia and remember some incredible gigs
