Not going AGAIN

[YouWhat]

Had to return my ticket last year,due to holiday and her indoors who won't do any festivals at all throwing a strop...did'nt mind so much as i was not to keen on the line up anyway,and i did enjoy the holiday. So i deceided to make 2011 my final Glastonury,and was more than pleased to get my ticket, with her approval...BLOODY HELL i have just been informed her sodding sister in Australia is getting married the week before Glastonbury and yes you guessed right we will be going...So some lucky person will be getting my ticket......

Gutted for your mate See you in 2013!

Probably doesn't apply to your situation but, if it was my wife's sister, my wife would be going to the wedding on her own.

Hope you really really enjoy OZ pal.

Go to the wedding, enjoy it, and convince your wife it's important to leave Australia immediately after the wedding as you don't want to impinge on the honeymoon. You'll be home in time for the gates opening.

keep your ticket and plant some PCP on your wife at the airport and then alert the authorities

When my daughter announced she was getting married I warned her not to pick Glasto week if she wanted to see me there. Unfortunately she chose the weekend of another festival where I was working so I did the fest Wednesday-Friday night, drove home, scrubbed up and did the wedding on the Saturday and was back at the festival on Sunday morning.

Admittedly it was only 50 miles away and not the other side of the world. I hope your sister will appreciate your sacrifice.

and here comes the pussy whip

f**k that shit. Weddings are w*nk. Long haul flights are w*nk. Jet lag is, you guessed it - w*nk.

Put it this way. What came first, you booking the ticket or your soon-to-be-outlaws setting a date? You have a prior engagement and your missus wasn't going with you anyway. Easy peasy lemon wotsit, missus in Oz, you at Glasto, all punters happy. Voila.

My invoice for problem solving is in the mail.

[YouWhat]

That's the important bit right there. Who says you have to catch the same plane back? I'd be straight to the airport after the post-wedding booze-up.

[grumpyhack]

Went to Australia a couple of years ago. Like you, a three week visit, starting with a wedding. It was amazing. Did the east coast from Melbourne, via Sydney and up to Cairns and snorkelling on the Great Barrier Reef. But ask me now what would I prefer - a week at Glasto or three weeks in Oz and Glasto wins hands down.

I'd rather do 3 weeks in oz and go to a family wedding.

Make 2013 your last one.

Resigned to not going now,also thinking of maybe tagging a extra week on in New Zealand. This was to be my last Glastonbury,nothing will change that,have had some good times there,but i think its far to big these days.and had already made up my mind to do a few smaller fests next year,could be i might even persuade her indoors to try one of them,have to be a motorhome job though,and even then i doubt she would agree.

[Jackmypie]

Mate at least your sister invited you. I doubt my sister would invite me, if she had one.

When I arrive at Glastonbury I usually feel pretty jetlagged.

[rachbon]

i don't think i'd miss glastonbury for anyone's wedding.

It's unfortunate that you can't go to Glastonbury, but on the plus side you will be in Australia, The greatest country on earth!

As much as I love Glastonbury, if I had the option of going there or Australia I know which one I would choose!
