The sun is shining with a nice drying wind here on the south coast, however I have the worlds worst hangover and therefor don't care.

If I live to get to Glastonbury then I might start careing again but I doubt it I will.

Please shoot me or something.

The amount of rain between now and wednesday is crucial to how muddy it is going to be, so I think it is fair enough for people to make predictions on what they're seeing today. Problem is it is not easy to predict how much is going to fall the next few days as is foecast is for isolated rain/showers. Looking like tomorrow and tuesday mostly dry - the important day could be monday as it could be quite wet.

I'm going down Monday morning as i'm working so i will update on here as to whether there's mud, solid ground etc. I do think that it'll be good no matter what the weather and if you do happen to need cheering up come and see biggles wartime band up in croissant neuf field. They 'll make the blues go away.

I've just put my tent up in the garden for the annual check and it started hammering it down here (including HAIL) - I had to carry on regardless as the inside would have got wet without the top sheet on - needless to say I'm soaked and slightly battered...is that a sacrifice enough?!

Yea but current forecasts are showing temps will be around 8-10degC down on those years. I think it very much depends on the amount of rain we have today and on Monday. As to much and temps in the mid teens will never dry it all out by wednesday.

Well- you should have seen the puddles in 2005!!! and a few days later the site was pretty dry...so as long as not much more rain, and some windy, sunny days, reckon all will be fine...although saying that more rain arriving monday apparently.

I think it is a bit of both, isn't it? I like your posts better than Tommmy's, I also like that your name basically means "joke that was only funny once and now has been pushed too far, beyond the point that anyone can ever remember it being funny in the first place". On some forums the regular posters of sensible comments have an alternate account for trolling, here it is the other way round :P

    • Yep, honestly this seems like the most likely option right now.
    • Agree. Also there was a lot more crossing over between stages. I know they need to put the cure, the xx and Gorillaz on the main stages but if they could have put your Blood Orange, Big Thief, Baxter Dury on Cupra and Occident with Jade and Pinkpantheress on the main stages, it would have been a massive improvement. 
    • 100% THIS! I haven't quite been able to put my finger on it, but I think you've just nailed why I didn't enjoy this year as much as usual. In last years edition, the likes of Slowdive or Big Thief would have had evening slots at Cupra or Occident, instead of being shoved on to the main stages during the day. Apart from the very biggest acts (ie The Cure, the pop headliners), most performances at Mordor just lack that special "wow, I'm so lucky to be here" feeling that I remember from the Jesus Lizard and Anhoni sets that you've mentioned.  Sidenote: I wonder if there's a decent chunk of ticket holders that gravitate towards Mordor simply because it's the biggest stage, without really caring who's playing at that time, thus the increased (and incredibly noticeable) yapping. 
    • Some horrible talkers around me as well for that one. Plus the mobile beer taps pressing through almost all the way to the front, which really should be illegal. 
    • 1. Kevin Morby - Little Wide Open  2. feeble little horse - bitknot 3. Genesis Owusu - Redstar Wu and the Worldwide Scourge    Decent month though - Kurt Vile and Ed O'Brien would have been top 3 most months
