Just back from my bumble and it started to spit with rain. Was hoping it would turn into a light drizze, as that would have been perfect weather for running. But no, I sweated more moisture than I received from the weather gods. Perfect festival weather. The ground is good, with lush grass. Which reminds me, I must mow the lawn.

Which one did you go to? 🙂 Looking to take my gf and dog camping perhaps later this summer or next. 🙂 Greenacres campsite, north wootton, a shortish walk from Pilton. Nice hotel closeby for a meal and a drink. Clean facilities, plenty hot water, showers etc. 40 pitches and we were the only ones on site! Not sure about the dog policy, you would have to contact them. I would recommend it for a peaceful break with Glastonbury, Wells etc a short drive away.

I like the idea of No Mow May, but my lawn goes to seed really easily and I end up with grass growing on the paths and in the beds and everywhere really if I don't mow it.

I suspect it was because, being a teacher, I wrapped my shirt around my face rather than risk being struck off if a colleague or student ever saw the picture. Sensible, but not really in keeping with the ethos… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blutarsky Posted May 24 Report Share Posted May 24 Here's Blutarsky's Daily Digest. Really enjoy doing a daily check and picking 4/5 highlights of activity. Ground works going on just south of the Woods - there's been something going on around this area for a week or more now, but it's been obscured by trees. This is the first time it's been possible to see anything properly in that area: Kit for the Pyramid mixing desk has been put out: Back of Pyramid field urinals being set up: Skips being delivered for market areas. This is WG field: I think this is now 4 caravans in Greenpeace field: Van at the Spike: Fencing crew hard at it: 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the first time it's been possible to see anything properly in that area: not ground works. That is a general dumping ground / storage area, they are probably moving the pile of spoil and rubble that has been there for ages. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hadn't clocked that but the route from Other to Pyramid is a bit longer now coming out by San Remo (was Beat) rather than the old cut through Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Staberinde Posted May 25 Report Share Posted May 25 I'm guessing this smallish crane behind the trees is erecting the big screen for Cineramageddon or whatever it is called. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
