blustery and sunshine perfect ground drying weather at the moment

Ooh...bit of activity at the Pyramid this morning.....could this be what we think it might be on its way there?

 

[WforWill]

Some trailers have been dropped off at the bus station. Activity around pyramid too. Weather forecast has improved aswell with most of the wind warnings cancelled! Getting busy!

[giantkatestacks]

This needs to happen today, I am already having a horrible work day and 2 hours of the worst training this afternoon to follow so need the lift.

Any idea what could be in these trailers? Fencing, stage parts, trackway, etc? Been unloading them all day with the John Deeres.

A bit early for trackway that usually comes in green wagons with sunway branding if I remember correctly

The weather looks horrendous at the moment. Never mind getting dressed, currently the pyramid needs wellies and a poncho 😊

Looks like at least 5 more trailers have been dropped of in bus parking. Can imagine some of them are contents of the main stages

Certainly is. I’m growing Gills 😂😂

I could be wrong but i think a small green shipping container normally appears on the fence line behind the pyramid which has the skin inside.

the same container stays for the duration then vanishes again when the stage is naked.

Crazy how if true i can remember that but struggling to remember what last nights tea was.

Yes, pissing down here as well as very cold and windy. Hope Somerset warms up soon, going camping down there in May!🤞

I'll be sure to twerk for the webcam a little later next week when I am there! 😄

Barely stopped here (Oxfordshire) for the last 3-4 weeks either! 😞

Forecast shows rain and winds easing from tomorrow and a decent dry spell from Monday.

Monday it is then 🤞

It's perfect weather here. Sun is out. No wind. I suspect that might change later though.

[giantkatestacks]

Beautiful morning on the farm!

[WforWill]

Got lots dropped off in that rain yesterday. Shame we can’t see further right.

Looks like empty lorries returning to bus parking from the park stage area. Most likely parts of ribbon tower, fencing, or parts of stage? So annoying we don't have a full time detective on site lol.

Could it be the pier arriving onsite?

Also something going on in the top part of the stone circle field, but hard to see.

Wind is getting up . I reckon Thursday for the dress now 

[Pinhead]

Here's where some of the increased ticket cost is going:

top of Kings Meadow looks the usual pile of gash dumped there that will eventually be a bonfire.

Pier arrives differently and usually starts showing up later in May. Comes on flat beds directly to the flat area out of camera shot where the trailers are dumped prior to moving to location.  It arrives when it is needed, there is not enough room to leave it for a period.

Fencing will arrive on Sunbelt wagons and not closed containers or curtain siders.  Not seen the fence crew around yet.

Trailers down by Red are almost certainly being dragged across from the storage yard. Most are marked with where they go (Block 9, #2 etc).  Haven't run down that way to have a look this week.

Great info thanks . Hope the pyramid skin doesn’t land in your garden if they attempt to put it up with these winds
