Fiona,the owner of Green Man has given the clue " I like bats" and the clue bewitching.On Bat for Lashes facebook there is a slowly revealing game of hangman where the second word is five letters second letter I-----could turn out to be wrong but she has played Green Man twice before as well.

Oh dear Moloch. I hope and pray you're right. Seeing her would make this the best thing ever.

hello.

 

due to personal reasons, me and my wife are now not going to green man. we are selling our tickets via Green Man's approved secondary ticketing company at face value (plus £1 each ticket. because i put the incorrect amount in. And i cant reduce the price by a pound! i am very tired).

 

a link : https://t.co/mDUmbQmktc

 

The listing says collection only. However, i will OBVIOUSLY send out via Special Delivery at no extra charge. And i will bung in the orange car park ticket as well for free.

 

Thanks.

It's quite far I think, 20 mins maybe.

you could probably drive into blue gate and get out and have your driver turn around and drive back out again if you feel like doing it unofficially

 

Thanks - that was the plan we figured we'd give a go having chatted about it. Fingers crossed! 

[markussnoopy]

Not long to go people : ]  looking forward. Small bit of rain is OK I guess as long as it's not a washout.

 

When does the ceremonial burning of the Green man take place. I presume it's on Sunday after things finish up. is there a set time usually?

[SweepingTheNation]

The GM Twitter account just retweeted the same hangman clues as the Bat For Lashes images.

Bat for Lashes! I'm dying here!

[glastobuds]

My weekend just managed to get unbelievably better. Shame it's not mountain stage as I predict the far out will be rammed.

[sinc72]

I'm getting the train from manc to abergavveny. Dont really fancy carrying my booze on the train, so I was wondering if there is any supermarkets near the train station? Also anyway know how regular the shuttle buses are? Thanks in advance

how rammed is it likely to be for Jamie Xx ?

 

looks like he's on a bit earlier than we expected now

[glastobuds]

I think it will be very busy initially but should be accessible

[Bort]

How rammed will it be for Bat for Lashes?

[steviewevie]

STORMS FORECAST FOR SUNDAY!

[glastobuds]

How rammed will it be for Bat for Lashes?

[glastobuds]

Busy I'm going to stake my space on Thursday after leftfield

[Bort]

It seems the bat for Lashes tweets have been deleted.

[steviewevie]

Supposed to rain quite a bit tomorrow afternoon...and then possible showers after that till late Saturday night when all hell will be let loose.

Anyone know how much it takes before the place turns into a mudbath?

[dirty_dog]

still early days, weather will change 2 or 3 times between now and the weekend,

just hope if it does come it's in the early hours of the morning

[fur_q]

Looking at the forecasts

yr.no = not looking too bad

Netweather = bring an ark

How long are the queues generally for showers, late morning?

[markussnoopy]

Not a disastrous weekend according to the BBC. Sunday will be testing it seems though:

 

Thursday, 20 August: A dry start, with highs of 19 degrees C, with some slight rain showers breaking out late afternoon/early evening. The showers should clear by later in the evening.

Friday, 21 August: Dryer than Thursday, but no warmer, with the possibility of light showers at around 7pm.

Saturday, 22 August: Likely highs of 19 degrees C with light rain showers possible throughout the day. Lows of 13 degrees C at night, but becoming dry.

Sunday, 23 August: Thundery showers possible during the day, with highs of 17 degrees C. Light showers likely at night, with temperatures of around 12 degrees C.

[fur_q]

I think all we know right now is that it will be cool with some rain, but how much rain isn't really known the current range of the forecasts and models is <4mm - >60mm (total Thursday-Monday) this shows that there's little confidence in any rainfall quantity predictions right now
