johnnybrolly Posted May 16, 2016 Report Share Posted May 16, 2016 I was higher up on Pennard Hill that year. It was a freakishly long and hard storm. When I saw all the tents underwater at the bottom of the hill I thought there was a high chance that somebody could have died. Nobody wants that.

The worst storm I have ever been in. The thunder was shaking the ground, non-stop for hours and hours. We were literally under the storm cloud. Amazing. every clap of thunder and everyone was cheering then all hell broke loose I was sleeping in the middle of a 4 man tent only to be woken up by a river of water flowing down my back.

People were getting very excited, to no avail. So even changes now mean nothing really. What happened the year before that? Last year I believe was the only time recently there wasn't a separate coach secret sale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes indeed it was 2005 and a storm like no other, remember watching it after 2 days of hot sun then it unleashed on the Friday morning. Apart from localised flooding and a lake at bottom of Pennards it was an amazing atmosphere and the rest of weekend was great. Now 2007 was a different story, weeks of wet weather prior to the start and non-stop rain all weekend of the festival and it was misery by Monday morning On 5/12/2016 at 2:44 PM, Jamie D said: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You guys are doing a great job of putting me off The past few Glastonbury's have been fairly benign and I reckon we could be due either a really good one or really bad one, not that it matters to me as at this rate I shall be pitching my tent in the living room and my tv shall become pyramid stage MK2.
