a few questions . .

We are traveling from Liverpool by train to derby then getting a taxi from there to the festival, we wont be getting there until about 7pmish +, we'll need a bigish spot as we have a family tent (taking two young children)

Is there going to be horrendous ques at that time on the Friday (and is my taxi bill going to be huge) :s

and is there even going to be space for our tent?

hmm...with that and the weather forecast i have really cold feet/stressed out.*

*first ever festival were taking our children/never been to bearded before/we'll be carrying all our stuff by hand...gah!

Aw don't be stressed hon :girlwah: Hopefully you're worrying unnecesarily and all will work out just fine for you. Just think of that moment when you've set up camp, you're all settled and you get your first cider out .........*and relax!*........

Despite my best efforts not to be bothered, I'm becoming a bit obsessed with the weather! Have just checked 3 sites - bbc and metcheck don't look too bad reporting cloudy with just the odd spot of rain here and there but the weather channel (who I usually go by) state rain, rain and more rain :( PLEASE be wrong weather channel......

Just making sure that everyone who's planning to camp with the loosely efests-based camp knows that we'll be on the other side of the row of trees running from the lake across the campsite. Where were were last year is on the doorstep of the dance tent this year. So we'll be on the opposite side of the trees this year.

See you all very, very soon :girlhaha:

Ooooooh.... metcheck may be my new favourite!!

*Packs sunglasses*

erm ... you might want to calm down a little. I just followed that link just to see what the weather might be, and the forecast it gave wasn't for this weekend but next weekend (not sure if that's what it gave you tho). Strangely, I couldn't get metcheck to give me a forecast for this weekend.

/me tootles off the another weather site for a forecast.....

it makes me laugh - a lot - how festival goers hunt around the various weather sites to find the best one they can, and then that's the one they post.

It's almost like they want to believe that by picking the best one they're controlling the weather. :lol:

It's a shit if the weather is bad, but there's sod all anyone can do about it. :(

    • Hilarious to describe this as suprising, for the guy who can't afford to go on holiday, the guy who goes on holiday is rich, for the guy who goes on holiday, the guy who gets 3 holidays a year is rich, for the guy who gets 3 holidays, the guy who stays in 5* hotels is rich, for the guy who stays in 5* hotels, the guy that flies business class is rich, for the guy who flies business class the guy with a private jet is rich etc..   I think one of the greens video's that they put out that went viral, Zacks description of "the rich" covered 12 people in the UK.

    • Funny the amount of "K*ll The Kardashians" shirts I see at Download that we could be a getting a member of that family headlining next year lol
    • There are similar articles on the IFS website. No one will be brave enough to spell it out and we've reached the limits on what we can borrow. The likely outcome is we'll carry on with a slow decline in services followed by a either a right wing govt or a public finance crisis. Both options lead to big cuts.
