Don't go to Devon. Its rubbish

Get a gallon of cider and drop a handful of pro plus* in it instead.

if it is that rubbish why do so many scousers, scots, mancs , cockeneys and northers want to come down here nicking all the jobs for the locals then!!!! :P

*or a gramme of speed and a couple of microdots

Yes, but middle class (and middle aged) people don't go out half naked and get so mashed they end up pissing in the streets, screeching, mooning, fighting and shagging around and going home in an ambulance. Middle class people get trolleyed in the pub on bitter and drive home through the country lanes a bit tiddly, or they get pished at home on nice wine and ruin the Axminster by spilling the Pinot Noir...

If the OP wants an alcoholic diversion en route to Glasto, may I recommend a pint or two in Eli's in Huish Episcopi?

No, not sarcastic... In the town where I live the middle aged posh middle aged couples drive home from the Gastropub pished in their Jaaaaguars and the chavs go out fighting fuelled by Bacardi Breezers...

Hi, I'm travelling with folk who want to visit Buckfast Abbey before Glasto starts. Does anyone know the logistics of this and if it's worth going past the fest to turn back to it, traffic later on in the ngiht, etc?

Cheers.

    • After deciding to abandon the festival, here's a few of my thoughts (mostly negative tbf).    On the positive side - was it just me or were there a few more urinals than last year? Seemed to help the queues at the loos a bit from what i saw. Plus they had at least had some foresight and had a few more covered areas in the VIP areas.    Now on the negatives.  The weather was admittedly pretty crap but it wasn't apocalyptic. How the actual f**k are bits of the main stage falling off in those conditions?  Then the communication was awful, there's a load of people who left the site because they were told by security guards/other personnel that there would be no more acts on the main stage this evening.  You have an app Primavera, use it! Yes, there's a shitload going on I'm sure but communication with the festivalgoers should be one of the top priorities. You failed.    And I'm not usually somebody who buys into the whole "oh this is hugely unsafe and it's lucky people weren't hurt" narrative, but all the above led to movements of people that were genuinely unsafe.  Evacuating Mordor entirely (again... Why???) and then having a horde of people trying to get in because they thought they were going to Massive Attack was insane.  And given a lot of people basically abandoned ship around 10.30pm the crush at both the exit to the festival and the entrance to the Metro was pretty dangerous.   Conditions happen, most people will get that....but the contingencies have to be better. 
    • You'd think that something like bad weather was in the basics of festival planning. After the shitshow of Madrid, you'd think they'd learnt their lesson, apparently not...
    • Same. Shower and back out in a taxi!
    • I left and went home, saw the Massive Attack update when I got in the door. Typical 💀
