Tickets returned

[denwyn]

Well the deed is done,i have just got of phone with Seetickets getting a ticket refund for myself and two others. I have had many good Glastonbury festivals in the past and a few bad ones, but i think at 65 its time to call it a day. two others in our group have had a change of plan and won't be able to go, so its down to the remaining two now. Best of luck to all trying in the resale on Sunday. Thanks for the goodtimes Glastonbury : )

If you feel relieved at the decision you've made Denwyn, then I am happy for you! Must have been a tough decision though.

(And I hope we get two of your three tickets in the resale on Sunday!)

Will be you be buying a ticket next year and not going also?

[denwyn]

Glastonbury next year...I think not,my love affair with Glastonbury is over now. Its been good to me most of the time,but all good things come to an end,

and reaching 65 the week before I no longer have any enthusiasm. I did think buying a ticket would help. Unfortunately the line up did not help,its OK but not very inspiring. So rather than wasting £450 / 500 including spends I asked for a refund and hope my ticket goes to someone who will enjoy it. Best of luck to all on Sundays ticket sale :-)

My Nan last went when she was 75. She's trying in the resale on Sunday and will be 80 in June.

This would have been my sixth, not many I know,I was never really interested until I moved down to Somerset some fourteen years back and went on a local Sunday ticket,after that I was hooked,and tried every year for full tickets, some years it was successful, others not. I only ever did it for the music,had no interest in the weird stuff, best ever do me was the Neil Young year,worst was 2011 when I was really ill,hardly saw anyone,had to go home on the Friday night,mind you it was a very muddy year. I hope your gran gets my ticket. I will miss it I know,not giving up on festivals though,thinking of doing Beautiful Days, its only 20 mins from my house,much smaller,less push and shove,and I could travel daily.

[bigbilly]

Enjoy your retirement mate! You live in a beautiful part of the world and got time on your side to discover new things to enjoy :-)

Do you think 2011 was a tough one overall? It was my first, would like to know if it can be easier to enjoy?

For me it was the best and worst time ever, best because it was a dream to go, see bands which I have never seen live, do something without my hubby/kids, but the mud was awful, rain killed the mood, and I totally under estimated how physical it was carrying all my gear with that walking in the mud and how tired I would be. I hope it was a "bad" year and that I will enjoy a better one,I hope you do too

2011 was great I thought.

Beautiful Days is a great festival as long as you're on board with the Levellers worship that goes on. To be fair it is their festival, so understandable! I've always had an awesome time there.

One of the guys I work with can't go now so there will be another ticket in the hat for Sunday.

I mean ultimately it is about the music

[Krazypinkminx]

Well I seriously cant wait for June, its taking over my life planning bit,lol. I tried out my solid fuel stove last night, never seen one before. Those other festivals are not it far from me, really should check them out. Anyway there is one ticket back in the pot from our group too

That's a hard decision Denwyn but only you know really how the festival affects you. Will you do something else that weekend, or stay glued to the Telly? Hope you enjoy your weekend whatever you choose to do

[denwyn]

I will probably set up TV to record bits of it,if weather is good no doubt I will be out on my bike. :-) :-)
