ze german invasion is now well established. do not reist, or it might drizzle. do not accept offers of help from the french...they would only bring rain, and score an own goal with anelka :-)

I've packed 3 bottles of suncream and 3 waterproof ponchos to even things out.

DO NOT unpack the wellies - in 2005 the forecast was like this when we left, so we left the wellies in the car - and we all know what happened then!! I got infected legs that year from mud going over the top of my wellies and I REALLY don't want that again - please take wellies!!

Too much packing and work to do, so I'm going to try to stay off here today.

It's been an emotional rollercoaster, but we're nearly there. There have been times of fear, stress and doubt, but we've stuck together through adversity and the happy ending is so close I can taste it. We need to continue with NRNC until Sunday evening to keep those thunderstorms at bay. Thanks to LW, everyone else on here and the great nation of Germany. I shall be searching out a Bratwurst stall for my first meal on site.

Whatever anyone says, this weather didn't make itself - we made it. May these tears which are so freely flowing down my cheeks be the only water I see for the next week.

I love you guys.

Seconded devonhammer - it's been emotional but we did it in the end.

This weather is of our making and I can't wait to leave the office in 4.5 hours and enjoy it! We deserve every scorchio second of our hard work but mustn't get complacent, not now!

You guys are AWESOME!!

I too shall be there in me England shirt (if the kebab stains have come out from last weekend - nice!) cool cider in hand - we'll match!

The only damp ground I expect now is a beer sodden pyramid stage field where we all forget ourselves and throw caution to the wind (and let's face it, cider and beer) whilst celebrating England winning and getting through.......please :D

I've been glued to this thread for the last few weeks, it's been one of the best internet threads of all time. And I've been on a few . Excellent work everyone, may sneak around looking for you over the weekend and if I'm feeling really courageous might even introduce myself.

NO RAIN, NO MUD, NO COMPROMISE!!!

    • I'm surprised they risked it, especially after nearly missing their Glasto 22 slot under similar circumstances  I did see someome say Ellie didnt sound as strong as recently but I'm guessing playing 3 shows in 2 different continents doesnt help that    On the topic though I can definitely see them doing a Fontaines and having a break over winter before a few final Clearing shows next summer 
    • That's fair on WA - I did recall people thinking Fontaines would take this year off before this was announced.    On the subject of Wolf Alice, they did Lollapalooza in Chicago on Saturday then Kendal Calling last night. Bit of an odd choice, no? Half imagine at Kendal that they would've been just exhausted.
    • Just logged onto the app to start planning my days and there really are a LOT of stages missing. Apart from the Seaside Stage there is no Casemates this year etc. Apart from the Seaside Stage, there are no Casemates this year, etc. Can't see anything about the kids field really. And there's local acts that are normally there like Kojak's Revenge that aren't appearing either.  Normally we get down fairly early but I can't see anything before 3pm I'm keen to see. Only one real clash as well, which is good, but it's thin and it's not thin in the sense of "I've seen a lot of these acts before"
