That's the boat in the Greenpeace Kids Field. 

Is that always there?

Yeah it's a common place for a picnic out of season 

[Ayrshire Chris]

As others have said, the boat is always there. Walking the site last year there were kids actually playing on it.

If you are ever feeling in need of cheering up, go and see the kids going batshit crazy on that ship. My daughter and I go every year to see how Glastonbury madness really looks. 

[Losing my hair]

All a bit dull today.

Weather forecast after today is dry with light to moderate winds so hopefully we'll see some more action next week.

My son spent hours on that ship at his first Glasto, aged 9. He was dripping in sweat by the time he came off one day. They got something very right in the making of it

Looks like they're back on it on this very dark and murky morning

Cherry picker is up and moving around ?

[Padgey]

Usually love watching the site progress, not going to be the same unless I'm successful in the resale!

[tumbles]

Also some chap on the top of the pyramid, didn't notice that! Pulling her clothes on

The Ribbon Tower is in the field up and left of this field my friend. 

That's where Arcadia has been based with the big spider previously.

[Gnomicide]

It's a digger.

Ahhh.  I always get those two fields mixed up from this angle.  Oh well - maybe some new Arcadia bits then!

Looks more like where the other stage sits, no?

There have been two on site. One in Arcadia's field and one in the Other field.

Looks like one of the long drop lids has been taken off too

That’s a brave soul that is first to remove that after two years.

There was a bit of activity by the Pyramid earlier, I noticed. A few 4x4's and a couple of jeeps. Plus a saloon car. Must have been a fancy dressed person from one of them cities they've got now.

No, but you're right to look for it - it's one of the first things to be seen.

Glastocam makes me happy and excited.

[JoeyT]

Can't believe i'm typing this but it's actually quite exciting to see the longdrops being "woken up" 

Other highlights i'm looking forward to:

the fence going up

ribbon tower being built

the other stage being erected

glastonbury sign

when the tipis build starts

urinals going up in the pyramid field

trackway laid out across site

arcadia arriving

beat hotel tent coming in to view

gate a entrance on far right of the camera

ciderbus kicking up dust as it hurtles up the track behind the pyramid stage

the first evening when the sun is setting with the tor in the backdrop and those pathway lights get their first twinkling.

the arrival of the traders
