How full are the car parks now?

Just an idea, then those of us still here can gauge how mad (or not) it is getting and plan accordingly.

You are correct. Sorry. Thought it was eight.

How long are the queues then?

Looks like a 6am start for us for about a three and a half hour journey.

[flobberlobberlo]

I did a three hour journey and left at 6:30am last year. Arrived at 11pm.

Just heard from my brother (who has been on-site since Saturday). He has just this minute moved his car offsite to the orange car parks where normally he leaves it in the car park as close to the fence as you can get. Tonight, he is parked about two fields away from the fence as the nearer ones are already full.

On his way back through the gates, he also gave his respect to the first two people who were standing at the gate with all their stuff, drinking a beer at the front of the queue.

Yeah yeah. Last year. Blah. Blah. Plenty of threads on that already. I think we all know that was due to a couple of crashes and that most years there aren't many problems with queueing.

How full are the car parks NOW please. Are they enforcing the stay in your car rules?

Really cross right now that I was arguoing that a 4am start was too early, I feel like leaving now, never mind 6am, panic panic, best spots already full, etc.etc...

Joeyb... so they're letting people queue already? deffo worrying now.

[flobberlobberlo]

It's actually stressing me out that people are already there! We're leaving at 5:30am tomorrow, it's a 3 hour drive, I hope our group can get space together.

You're stressing !! Spare a thought for all those arriving by train/coach during the day tomorrow who will no doubt be right at the back of queue of all those who could (and did !) turn up way before the gates open

Am finally all packed and ready to go now but no trains til tomorrow morning so just looking *very* longingly at the Glasto Webcam and all the pretty lights etc. Tis looking very nice ... but hardly anything remotely close to being a good substitute for the real thing and all that.
