deebeedoobee Posted May 12, 2017 Report Share Posted May 12, 2017 Yes there was a little rain overnight but only enough to leave damp grass nothing more. Now it's quite humid so any damp has dried off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even more so than the walkway lights being switched on? I must admit it's such a beautiful site when the sun is setting over the tor in the backdrop and those bastards get their first twinkling.

The other really dramatic part to watch is seeing the campers turn up. Which either fills me with sadness or pitch-stress depending on whether I'm going that year.

A handy pit stop on a Park/Tent to West Holts run, etc. Why is the mental image of manky blue-tarp enshrouded men's lav making me feel so elated?! Mental.

VolumetricFox Posted May 12, 2017 Report Share Posted May 12, 2017 Looks like the urinals are going up at the old JP site as well. There's a digger in the Pyramid field roughly were they were last year too so guessing that's today's task for those teams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
broken monkey Posted May 12, 2017 Report Share Posted May 12, 2017 Super nerdy post alert! Interesting to compare the fence line this year to last year for behind The Park. Looks like they're installing the fence higher up the hill this year. Think this field is crew camping though 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mjsell Posted May 12, 2017 Report Share Posted May 12, 2017 So that extra space by the park is to offset the space lost in crew camping in dairy(?) that in turn is to offset the space lost to the cinemageddon? Or is it something more? It does look like the fence is going to be right back up against the trees all the way across as well, which is a bit further back than last years pics Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think this field is crew camping though If that new extension to the fence is crew camping does this mean they're also employing Sherpas? Thats some serious gradient to be putting tents on.

Change the below to the date you want. Camera usually updates every 10 mins, so if there is nothing at 12:05 then you should have something at 12:00. https://panodata1.panomax.com/cams/879/YYYY/MM/DD/hh-mm-ss_default.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
