I wouldn't mind being in CT but last year it as too far down the hill for me. I prefer to be further up the top for the views, access and safety from potential rivers forming!

Hmmm i'm unsure where to camp. I'm heading down from Bristol and at the mo my friends want to try getting the local buses, but I'm trying to convince them that trains are probably the better option (does the bristol-glastonbury bus service even run during festival time?!).

So at the mo my arrival time is a bit of a mystery, but hopefully will be sometime between 9-12 on the wednesday morning. I'll try and make it near the camp if I can, but gonna play it by ear.

this was good in 07. far too busy in 08 though when i passed though. didn't even bother checking last year, apart from one wee stop off late on the wednesday night.

i'm the same as kowalski, i'll be where's convenient for the bands i want to see. can make as many trips this year what with bringing the car so will be far easier.

Vive La Revolution indeed...

if anyone fancies Park Home for a mini version of Chez Triangle Rouge there'll be a wee group of Purple Dodecahedrons in the next field over.

We love the Triangle of Redness very much but we want our favourite view of the festival back after an absence of too many years :P

Bring on the Revolution.

Its no safer being at the top of the hill, I saw tents under water up near the treeline in 2005 - there appears to be a natural drainage depression that meanders down the hill, anyone camping in this (fairly wide) depression will be in "the river" if any heavy rain falls. Essentially you have the entire hill behind the site as a catchment area that then funnels down into Pennards.

My advice is to choose your spot very wisely :P

There's a dedicated festival bus every hour or so from Bristol bus station. It may be a bit random sometimes, and take you all over the place trying to find the festival, but it's definitely tons easier than train from temple meads then queueing for the bus as castle cary. If it goes well it should be an hour or 'door to door', straight onto the site.

This should be ok even with a couple of hours of delay though the early opening of car parks might make a slight difference. I managed to squeeze my 3man tent in at about 8pm last year after getting stuck in traffic. Are you driving or getting the bus as just to warn you its a hefty trek from the drop off point to pennards. Is worth the walk however, particularly if you want to enjoy more of the greenfields, stone circle, other stage stuff rather than the Pyramid.

I am very tempted to camp with you all in CT10, particularly as my lot (10 of us), will be in Pennards anyway. However we did intend on being a little further up the hill, better views, closer to the stone circle, it is a tricky one.

we're getting the bus.... how long does it take to walk to pennards? i'll probably ending up falling in the mud and just refusing to get back up. really can't handle walking with heavy bags, but it would be worth the struggle to be camped with a big group of people since it'll be my first glasto, and i love efest camps. :P

Pennards is big...very BIG but if CT is set up exactly where it has been for the past 3 years...its just that some folk cant read maps that well! :P:P It is super daunting arriving at Pennards as a noob with big plans to head to CT and then getting there, seeing the field in front of them and thinking FOOOOOOOK!

The campsite stewards will hopefully get told its location this year so's lost bunnies dont get as lost as last year.

If the camp is anywhere near where it was last year and fingers crossed it will be, there are VERY simple instructions on how to find it. As long as you stick to instructions and dont go traipsing into the centre of the field and into the main camping then you should find it relatively easily.

One other downfall last year was the main flag not going up early enough and it not being big enough. Whoever organises the camp this year has to have flags up and flying within minutes of the camp being set up.

Who IS organising/leading it btw? :P

"Hello, are you the camp from the the tinternet?"

"Erm...well I've used the tinternet before?"

"Splifing old bean, so your here for to camp with strangers to?"

    • RIP Roy Hattersley
    • Proper special gig tonight. They won't mean much to most people, but The Dogs D'Amour were one of the most significant bands of my youth.   Tyla, yer main man of said band, was playing in Birkenhead tonight. Not many there, but it was going fine. Then he decided he didn't like the smoke and the flashing lights so suggested moving the gig to the beer garden. Off we all went, and it was magical. Like having your favourite musician play in your garden. I absolutely loved it.   Before:     After:
