Didn't it break?  Or was that just the normal webcam?

Main cam was definitely off for a while earlier in the year, but dunno about the unofficial one. Did it break too? Shame if so.

I put that badly. She had a webcam (updating ever 5 mins or so) as well as the panorama pics and I wasn't sure if it was the same camera in a different mode, but now that I think about it, her webcam broke a few years ago, so it's obviously not the same.

Nothing to do with the official webcam.

Looks like the farm is getting a bit of sunbathing today, some mates and me went for a walk up the tor yesterday and then stopped in Pilton for a pint. There were signs up with directions for Glastonbury Festival and got some sneaky peeks of the Pyramid with her gladrags on. Didn't want to risk going for an unannounced walk around the farm with the build having started so just admired her from afar. The whole area was lush green and not a inch of mud to be seen, we were even treated to an appearance by the sun and got some local cider to bring home with us. Roll on June 21st!

Looks good, I wonder how many people will be Periscoping over the festival !

[JoeyT]

I expect we shall see the trackway start to appear at the top of the site over the next day or so.

When did the super fence start going up last year? Mid May?

[MilkyJoe]

Glorious day down there today.

Have we had any panoramic photos from @Wickedfaerie yet this year?

I stopped being lazy and checked myself.

Looks like it started going up 18th/19th May last year so by middle to late next week we should start seeing it around the stone circle area.

the fence is not up yet so there is still time to get down to site and hide in a stall of a long drop for 7 weeks

Looks like the staging is being built on the Pyramid.  Or to put it another way, it's the stage stage of the Pyramid stage.

Some hard standing going down for the Other STAGE

Looks as if the trackway is going down above Cinemageddon ready for the fence. You can see it glistening in the sun!

How did they sneak that there without us seeing?!

That's a campervan field isn't it?

That's the top corner of South Park 1. See below post.
The tree on the right of the screen grab is the one that is just outside the fence

Cinemageddon will presumably be needing lots of trackway to get the cars in at first anyway. Otherwise they will churn the field dragging them in. <complete speculation>

You're probably right, as you'd imagine they won't have the wheels on them by the time they get up there.

Is there some piles of stuff behind the Stone Circle?

Looks like it. In previous years they have stored fire wood up there for the Wednesday night fireworks / fire display

[Joshuwarr]

Feels like things are about to accelerate in terms of preparation. All we need now is one of those epic photos from @Wickedfaerie 

[mjsell]

Bit late I know. But I'm loving the lovely cut grass. Great lines in action. Could have a good game of football on them. 

Bet it smelt great down there when cut. That's summer for me.

[VolumetricFox]

There's now work going on the Pyramid, Park and The Other.  We're getting closer !

[JayBalls]

The "goal posts" for the screens are laid out and ready to be erected*
