Eh??!! I don't follow mate.

Just having a laugh, it's mad how much we all drink at Glasto, so i was joking that what you said would only be a days worth of booze. And this is coming from an alcoholic trying to calm down a bit.. But not at Glasto!

Tesco are doing some good booze deals at the moment.

45 cans of Stella 4 for £24!

Tescos and Sainsburys are both doing the 2 x 15 for £18, or 3 x 15 for £24. For all day drinking, Stella 4% is pretty good actually, and I think a little nicer than the standard Carling, Fosters, Carlsberg tinnies.

Agree 100% but my aversion to warm lager of Any description is making me swerve towards a speckled hen version of this tesco offer, possibly with thatchers gold or strongbow dark fruits

I've got some ale too, for the same reason. I got some Adnams Southwold bitter and Old Golden Hen on offer in Tescos a few weeks back. They were around £5 for 4 cans, or £10 for 3 lots (12 cans). So I got 3 lots of each.

I got some Thatchers on offer in Tescos too, 10 440ml cans as part of the 2 for £18 offer. I see Sainsburys were doing 500ml cans of Thatchers for £4 for 4, I think.

I like the look of the Strongbow citrus or dark fruits, I must say. I think we've got all our cans now though. The dark fruits does sound nice though.

Yeah that was my thinking too, slightly better than the other lagers. I managed to get £15 off my order too, as I spent over £60 (It's not all mine) . The code is : XXC64P if you order from Tesco online :)

Where are the 24 hour general/supermarket stalls? Definitely considering not carrying my own mixers in as I'm getting the coach...

These are some of the locations I remember from previous years but the may not have been in these places last year and there's no guarantee they'll be in the same place this year.

-east side of the other stage field on the corner of the track heading towards the pyramid.

-the track heading west away from pyramid field towards either JP tent or Other Stage.

-bottom end of home park/pennards (not sure if this ones still there)

-North West corner of West Holts, at the back of the field where the track heads upto the railway track.

-Williams Green area possibly near the bakery opposite the entrance to the acoustic field.

I'm sure there are more but can't remember locations.

Most look like this-glastonbury-festival-123.jpg

Looking at all our booze stacked up earlier, I must admit I thought "Crikey, are we really going to drink all that?!"

I don't drink an awful lot really, and run 12 miles every other day. What a change those 5 days are going to be!!

Green Mark vodka 70cl and Grants whisky 70cl both £11 in Morissons today. Cheapest I've ever seen Green Mark so picked a couple up.

Also 24 cans of wrongbow for £12 and small cans of 7.4% sparkling perry for 49p.

The BM Bargains my bro's girlfriend works at - doesn't sell alcohol - outrageous. Sent the folks on a mission to find a licensed BM Bargains - them Jim Beam cans sound too good to miss.

Morrison's are still doing there 20 cans of wrongbow / Fosters etc for £10 (only 2 per customer) - the dark fruits wrongbow is 10 cans for £8... Also saw Bombay Sapphire Gin £18 for 1L in Sainsburys. Gonna grab some of that

Went to check out our local B&M yesterday and the only decent thing I could find was 4x500ml Gaymers for £2. No Brothers or spirits at all.

yeah that's the only thing i noticed as well. marched back and forth through the aisle for ages hoping i'd missed the Brothers, but alas i hadn't :(

    • Orbital opening the Other stage is a bold choice!
    • Great start for them 
    • Thanks so much - that's very helpful. Someone else mentioned getting a train from Loughborough to East Midlands Parkway, and then a festival shuttle from there to the site. I think they were then going to come back on the Skylink Derby to Loughborough - I assume this is because the trains don't run as late as the Skylink, otherwise they would just come back the same way they came?! Is the transport hub a long way from the main stage? Just wondering what time I would need to leave Linkin Park to be sure of getting a shuttle. As I say, I am sure it will all be clear on the day, even after a few beers! Just hope the rain stays away...
    • I really don't think they would put Olivia Rodrigo on Occident stage. If it was her, they would put her in earlier Mordor slot and move Big Thief or Little Simz to Occident.   Fontaines DC are more probable, but don't really match the hype. However, again, if the hype was real, the artist would end up in Mordor.   That being said, I would love to see Fontaines DC tonight.
    • After all the good advice on here I had a nice visit to the site earlier in the week.    Walked down from Pilton village to Hitchen Hill and down the footpath to the Wood by Woodies.    Really strange seeing the site empty of 100,000 people. There is far more hedges and woodland on the site than you remember when the festival is on. Can see the stone circle and some structures still up on site. And looks like Worthy View has some camping going on there during the summer too.   Lots was fenced off with electric fencing to help wth the cattle grazing. Is really amazing how they set up the site as its hard enough accessing the area by car and foot nevermind all the kit needed to set the festival up. As others said you can't walk the whole site but nice to see the site again after a few years away   Pilton is also a lovely village with a nice village hall shop and post office attached, and got to speak to some locals who told me a few tales of past festivals down the years. One house for sale there would be lovely to live in - if only I had £2 million going spare
