I know full well that there's probably loads of activity going on that the camera can't see, but it feels like there's sod all going on.  I kinda need that "big-thing-is-happening" fix!

The only building work we saw was at Greenpeace or at least in that area, with 10 weeks left it will soon heat up.

More like the M25 today! My farm walk today was dusty and the roads on the farm very very busy with workers. No spoilers but here’s red gate. No fence yet.

Didn't someone say fence starts to go up on Wednesday?

I did, yeah. Just quoting Emily from Rob da Bank's podcast. She said the fence build starts on 1st May.

I reckon we'll see some activity in the Park soon. The stage and ribbon tower always tend to go up early, from memory.

Your daily/frequent updates are much appreciated!

Looks like today is a day for moving equipment into place.

They're collecting the silage in The Park now, so the ground will be clear after today.

Always takes me back to when I was a kid. Wide grass verges which the council would cut - glorious smell and then a bollocking when we went in the house covered in clippings.

They're cracking on - in The Other field now.

Haha same here.

Used to get a bollocking off the local farmer when i was a nipper we used to pile all his grass up into big mounds.

Good times.

Another beautiful morning in the shire, the smell of those freshly cut fields must be absolutely glorious.

well if you must use a bloody great digger(not the dog one ) ... most will be subtle and use a trowel  ..(.. almost like me trying to break into the festival wearing the pyramid stage lit up on my head )

I love this thread. Never thought about it before as in the past we've got tickets in November but getting them in the resale means it's only an 8 week wait instead of 8 months! Excitement is building rapidly.

[Skelts]

Looks like activity where the sign goes - when does that normally go up?
