Im kinda on my own - I'll be travelling from London to meet an internet friend from Wales and some other friends that we met at Glastonbury 2 years ago, who are from Cornwall. I spend some of my time with them and some on my own. i did have 'real life' friends going but they've dropped out now so that they can spend an extra week in Ibiza... :P

Hiya I'm going alone too :P Coaching it there from Nottingham.

There's quite a few on here who are going alone from what I've seen in other threads. I think it's good to go alone because you haven't got anyone else dragging you to see someone you're not arsed about and all that. I don't think you can get lonely when there are 100k people around you :P

Me too, will be travelling from Norfolk but won't be able to get there until Wednesday night. Hoping to find a space with other e-festers but will need to practice pitching my tent in the dark.

Actually looking forward to going solo as you can be completely selfish in what you do and not worry about what your mates want to see.

This year I'm going with a mate, but I usually go on my own, and really you shouldn't hesitate - no matter how shy you are you'll get talking to people (the efests cider meets etc are always good) and it's and amazing feeling to know that you've got complete freedom to explore the greatest playground in the world!

Got to admit I felt a bit intimidated by the idea before the first time I went on my own, but once I was there it was great!

WOW! Great blog mate. Shame you didnt come and hunt us Efesters out at the Triangle though, we werent that difficult to find, well I say that but I suppose a very packed Pennards field can be a daunting to a newcomer :P Better luck this year eh?

That blog really gets over the scale of the festy and how daunting it can be to a virgin (and solo flyers). I could picture where I was throughout :P Loved the obsession with Tartiflette and Growlers...you're someone I could definitely hang out with :P

The unofficial Efests camp in Pennards is a great place to head to for solo flyers, G-virgins and overseas friends (if you can find it :P )
