Nice bus, shame you're not going next year.

Hello whisty. Yes, we made the decision this year to try some other smaller festivals out next year instead. We have booked Bearded Theory and Shambala tickets for next year so far. We have discovered that there's loads of cheap festivals with camping around so we are angling in on them to build up our stock base of festivals. As neither me or my wife go to festivals for the music then Glastonbury seems a little too extravagant. Basically we have both agreed that we just like to get stoned in a field really. Doing this on formal campsites can get a bit hairy, so it's best done at festivals, where that sort of thing isn't frowned up on.

Oh, we have also bought Wychwood tickets for next year also, but no longer want to go. We will though, if we can't shift the tickets.

Hope you are well.

Yog :)

All good here Mr Y thanks. I did a couple of festivals in Glastonbury gap year and had just as much fun. It's not the be all and end all although of course as most know it is very special. Sounds like your summer is going to be fun anyway. And maybe you'll change your mind :)

Only kidding, prob older than you Mr Y. I ate you Butler, but I love my Neighbour & Till death do us part to name a few. Nice van in the other thread btw :)

Hello whisty. My apologies - the 'I ate you Butler' remark went over my head. I'd completely forgotten about that line.

Yes, the camper van is kind of different. We had no knowledge of camper vans before we bought it. A state of being that has altered little since we took possession of the vehicle. The only down side to having such livery is the looks you get when turning up at more genteel caravan parks. I get the impression that we are very much looked down up on and may even be considered by some people as crustie travellers. It's not ideal when you want to keep a low profile. It gets a lot of nice attention at festivals though. The decision to buy it was made by my wife, who likes the colour purple! :)

    • My understanding is that the queues returning back to the UK will be much worse (up to two hours) but the queue entering Lisbon isn’t so bad. That’s just from reading a few forum posts about it though so take it with a pinch of salt!

    • World Cup 2026: What is happening with ticket prices? - BBC Sport   Sounds like Infantino has been learning from his buddy if he's running around claiming its all sold out while quietly dumping tickets below face on assorted secondary websites.
    • Mac DeMarco also cancelled 
    • I'm British so it very much would apply for me.   I mean, it's a moot point as I don't have tickets so will not be in town for this, but I've heard reports of lengthy queues and given I remember Lisbon Airport having a long queue at arrivals even pre-EES when I went in 2023, I seem to guess it might be quite the wait, depending on flight paths.   Certainly, the worst I've had pre-EES was a 45 minute wait for a stamp at Valencia Airport in Spain, where 4 flights to non-EU destinations in quick succession were placed one after the other. So I can't say I'm enthusiastic about what's in store. Or you know. Maybe I'm just overthinking it.
