Stressssssed...

sorry for the essay, think i needed to get it out!

forgot to say my main point, don't let it stress you out. if you can't persuade everyone to camp together, camp with who you're friends with most and you can always meet up with the others throughout the weekend.

don't let it stres you out - get excited instead!!

i'm stressed but in a whole other way.

found out not only do i have 4 days to pack up all my stuff from my house at uni and take it home, i need to pack and buy everything for glasto in addition to packing up my whole life to move across the country for a years work placement. which happens to start tues 28th, the day after glasto.

so whereas i normally sleep for a week after to recover, i have to be up at 6am on the tuesday (getting back late on mon) to catch a 3 hour train and work 5 full days, long hours (i work in events) attempting to make a good impression in the inevitable state i will be in. great.

don't get me wrong i'm very happy to have secured a good work placement. but if it started the week after my life would be a whole lot easier!

oh and i was just stood up for the second time in 2 weeks by the same guy, who had persuaded me to give him a second chance. and said good bye many of my uni friends i won't see for a year. needless to say, not feeling great at the moment. thank god i will be at my favourite place in the world watching one of my favourate bands in the sunset this time next week!

nah i totally understand. im camping with my girlfriend and her best mate (claire). claire has managed to piss off two of my best friends and so are not camping with us (even though i'd rather camp with them). also an even more fun group who are friends with everyone else have fallen out with my girlfriend and so i basically cant see anyone. OR instead what im gonna do is just f**k off by myself and not worry about all this crap!

We have camped at Hitchin Hill every year and will do so again this year. You're not at risk of flooding, you get some great views and it's close to the pyramid. Bad points are that it's miles from the car parks and 'the hill of death' is a bastard to go up when you are drunk/stoned/tired/fat. Security also tends to be better as it's near the house and family camping area.

Thanks for all the replies and ideas so rather funny solutions too

Problem all solved Jane has agreed to camp at the bottom of Park Home yay (she was the one insisting over by the Pyramid) Thankfully she spoke to some who has been many times who confirmed Park is good place location etc etc

So all sorted like salt n Vinegar crisps :P

Just need to cram everything into a TT now and if it all goes wrong expect to find me at looking lost and upset!!!

Paulbrock why don't you just watch what you want on iplayer etc? or just not watch it at all? I don't think there's anything I have to watch, Give 3 yr old peppa pig DVD in replacement ;)

thankyou! a bit of an emotional wreck tonight, far too many endings, changes and goodbyes in such a short space of time! and that guy really messed with my head. why make all the effort to win back my trust and let me develop feelings for him again, only to let me down again almost straight away?! argh i'll never understand men!

hopefully i'll be fine tomorrow so i can focus on sorting everything in time!

so true. lets just get these next few days over and skip to that! haha

i'd say its far from luxury tbh! going from living the student lifestyle in a house with 6 of my best friends in a city i love to a small city i don't really like where i know no one, living in a tiny room on my own. and i have no idea how i'm going to meet people when working such long hours and not knowing anyone to go out with. as someone who is normally out socialising every night, this really scares me!

Every year I get stressed with "where will I camp" or "what if there's no space near me when my friends arrive" and this year I thought "f**k it!" I'm going to play it by ear, my friends know where I plan to drop my bags and pitch and if they can make it then awesome, but if not they're a text message away from a meet up. It's easier camping together but seriously will be ok if you aren't :)

    • Geese playing for 1:20 instead of just an hour was a lovely surprise. The energy was great!
    • Oh well that's why then, I assumed it was still the same. Thanks!
    • Think this will be it...I think they are a level above trees.
