Glastocam!

And whilst you all stare at Arcrania, this is happening on the other side of the site.

* audio by @Brave Sir Robin Glastonbury 2022 playlist.

* The Temple is coming along

* I know I'm a slow runner but how rude

* weather - too bloody hot for this running malarkey.  Can I eat cake now?

Is that the temple, sorry?

Yes it's really muggy today, glad its my recovery day. Yesterday up a 400ft hill was bare pains.

They should definitely make that crane base into a cool sculpture that could stay.

[tumbles]

They've certainly put some effort in on the fence today.

But it’s not allowed to stay… That’s the problem!

Arcrania should consider itself lucky... most old cranes just get scrapped but he/she had a starring role in a major party and then got nearly 3 years living in the countryside before getting melted down. 

This is exactly how I would like my final few years to be !

[Junglist1981]

Wonder if they'll be able to repurpose the various parts of the crane into something more easily removable. I guess it's probably very heavy which might be problematic.

Whilst it clearly can't be said to have been successful it was very unique and it'd be a shame not to further explore the idea of having something that tall doing stuff.

I'd imagine Joe Rush would cut it up and turn it into stuff around the site.

Saw this today as well - another reason why I love this particular festival the most:

Another 10 lads arrived yesterday to help with the fence build so it’ll rapidly increase now, they aim to have it done by June 15th 

[Losing my hair]

It's looking grim down south this morning.

[JayBalls]

Visibility not conducive for fence build watching atm

 

[bexj]

Can someone lift the cloud please before I have to do some proper work?

[tumbles]

They're going to sneak in the spider while we can't see 

[paulshane]

A distraction from the drizzle, pic of West Holts going up from Saturday, via a buddy who is on site at the moment:

Can they take Glastonbury-on-Sea away with Pangea?

[DareToDibble]

Any bets on when these 2 parts of the fence will meet? End of the week I reckon.

Noooo I've not visited yet 

[blutarsky]

Clearing up a bit now - can see the full span of fencing that's been built in the SE - just about.  

Cherry picker back in action at Arcrania: 

Think this shows the state of the ground well: there's clearly been decent rainfall overnight as it's standing on the metal flooring, but the tracks all around the site have easily soaked it up and are looking dry again already. 

[stuartbert two hats]

No specific observation, but looking over the site now, it's a right bustle of activity isn't it?

[tumbles]

I reckon we'll see some Park Stage action today

Interesting....we missed out 2019 so this will be first time for us.  What is general opinion of GoS....great fun addition....or short lived gimmick?

I liked it. Didn't really think it presented anything to not like to be honest. A harmless, nice little addition in my book but do tend to see a lot of negative comments.

Another thing to me that hadn’t quite achieved its potential …. Although I’d say it has less scope for development than Pangea … it was clearly a RUSH job to get it finished
