Stone Circle

[alframsey]

I've never been a massive fan of the Stone Circle, It's a good experience during the dawn period but aside from that it's shite.

It's not the stone circle is bad (there's nowhere on site, bar perhaps the longdrops, which i don't like hanging out in) i'd just prefer the hill above the park, greenfields, avalon etc

Hello to all,

Although the stone circle can be a nice place to chill, please, please, please be aware that quite a bit of thieving goes on especially when the place is packed with folks in chill out mode. There are groups, say 3-4 in size, that systematically work the different areas at different times e.g on the Saturday night when they know most people are away from the camping areas they will target peoples tents. I witnessed a couple of the said theives stalking around the stone circle area last year, they were walking around as if pissed, scoping out peoples bags and such, when they picked their target they stumbled over as if they were the guys mates and at the last second, snatched his bag!

At first we all thought it was just a mate having a laugh, when the guy realised and jumped up the thief was already half way down the field. Poor lad had everything in that bag, car keys, cash, cards the lot.

Security do what they can by beefing up camp site patrols while the big acts are on but please be aware of this behaviour and make use of the lock up boxes for your valuables.

Great post

I always mean to do that sunrise thing too but the sun always seems to sneak up on me while elsewhere.

i quite fancy the idea of chilling out after a heavy night looking over the whole festival either flagtopia, the circle or the big GLASTONBURY.

2004 was the peak year for mushrooms- some sort of legal loophole had been discovered so you could get them everywhere!

The stone circle used to be a great place to go and chill for a bit, maybe hear someone strumming a guitar. ....now its not. As mentioned above its been taken over by the pre pubescent laughing gas squad.

Stopped going to Nos circle couple years ago. Noticed the stupid NOS gas people had started moving into Flagtopia last year spoiling the ambiance there as well. Where did the bongo, jugglers & flame folk go, have they given it up altogether or found a haven somewhere on site I wonder.

Fire poi and so on are possibly considered a bit passe now perhaps, else they've gone back to the circus fields.
