fence is moving along nicely, about to head behind strummerville... I keep getting "she'll be coming round the mountain when she comes" stuck in my head when I see the progress...

Every time I check and see it moving along I have "The fence, the fence, the fence is on fire" in my head.

Roof is being added to the other stage, so that could get raised shortly.

Haha brilliant, every time you, and me, see that damned fence at the festival it will be going through our heads!  I just hope I don't have too much to drink one day/night and actually start singing it!

Weird sky at Worthy Farm this evening.

I love the contrast in the sky from east to west on this one

[billum]

That is just beautiful

Not much has been happening this weekend other than lot's of work on the fence which has now reached The Park! 

[giantkatestacks]

Another beautiful evening though. Christ, I cant wait to be back there.

Checked out the Pano shot earlier, Kate, and thought exactly the same thing.

Surely the Other stage roof will be lifted today.

That's what I thought, but looks as if all the activity this morning is inside the pyramid. Looks like the stage decking is going in. I wonder if they will move on to the other stage roof after that, as it doesn't appear to have anyone working on the other stage at the moment....

[Pinhead]

Beautiful images. And to think anyone would ever consider moving it. The land is the festival; the festival is the land.

[jumbomcnutt]

And the grass cutting has begun!....

They didn't lift it until much closer to the festival last year - I think I read it was due to the type of roof it is - they can build all the tech stuff on it while it is lowered and then just shift the lot up.  Im guessing the tech stuff is hired  in and wont be on site until as close to the event as possible.

That is ace.  

However, somewhat off putting speech?  Describing the stages?  For Glastonbury?

Yeah, I enjoyed it far more than I probably should have.

That guy did make me laugh. I want his job though.

Me too. At this point I'm just clinging to anything and everything, I'm probably becoming a right bore about it too. Wife's first time, I've waxed lyrical but I don't think I've bigged it up.. She'll have to see for herself...

a beautiful dawn!!

Things are going slow down on the farm today with regards to seeing the site develop, apart from the fence which is flying round that hill, looks like the left is going to get round before the right starts.
