Up the ribbon tower

A friend climbed the ribbon tower in the park today and took this photo...

Lovely pic, thanks!

We all call it the ribbon tower too. Is it not called that?!

Its a must do for me at the festival, I'm terrified of heights so it's a challenge but each year gets easier! Very much worth it though.

We call it the Helter Skelter...

Awesome!

Well that's an interesting euphemism if ever I heard one!

I walked up the ribbon tower on my first Glasto. It was knackering with a hangover but so worth it. Was just thinking the other day that I'd like to do it again this year, maybe with some of my friends in tow. They're lazy bastards though!

Awesome pic too

Just think down in the bottom corner of that photo, by the big tree, where Its all quiet and tranquil now, in a few short weeks, we'll all be passing through there at some point, the sound of those metal toilet doors continually banging, thousands of peoples' feet drumming on the walkways, music bleeding out from every direction, the smells and sights of Glastonbury everywhere.........i can't bloody wait!

You like it 'up the ribbon tower' too, do you? phnar, phnar!

Thanks for posting the photo. Just showed it to my girlfriend and asked her to remember that view. She's not been to the festivasl before, so it'll be awesome for her to see the change if we get there this year (there's some doubt whether it'll happen at the moment owing to health concerns). I'm praying on a daily basis to all the deities that we'll both get to see the magical transformation.

Yoghurt, sorry to hear health issues are causing problems for you. Hope they're all better soon, and not just for glastonbury, but permanently. All the best, gumby.

[mr gumby]

Indeed I do, sir. Indeed I do.

Well, if none of your friends can be bothered, I may have to take you up the ribbon tower myself. I'd hate to think of you feeling unsatisfied!

[glasto-worker]

super - any chance of a panorama ?

may sound very cheeky but I am sure you did one a few years ago . { may have been 2009 }

[Yoghurt on a Stick]

Really appreciated gumby, thanks. If it's humanely possible to be there without it affecting my health then I'll be there. Mind you, that caveat never stopped me attending before!

I hope that one day I'll get to take a lady up the ribbon tower.
