Yeah, the whole structure being soaked you'd think that putting a cover on would just lock in that moisture. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazyfool01 Posted March 28, 2023 Report Share Posted March 28, 2023 So I presume they start work pretty much the day those covers get dropped at the corners … no reason they’d leave them out I guess . Need to check the weather thread to see if we have a break in the rain this week …. It’s all got a bit brighter here now but Pilton does seem to have weather of its own Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're still not there this year. 1st April 2019 11:10 3rd April 2019 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't seem to store any images at night though. The old webcam did ok at getting images at might (at least during the fest when there were some lights). Does this just bin purely black images and will store them when there is something to see? Or does it just not store images between certain hours? Also are there any timelapse vids around? I did one in 2003 or 2004 I think but have lost it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know about the night time images but there are a few time-lapse videos on YouTube, this one from 2020 so nothing happens.

Or does it just not store images between certain hours? The webcam generally seems to turn off just after sunset, and on again just before sunrise, with no images recorded overnight. However, this seems to change during the actual festival, with images being captured 24 hours a day. Note that the webcam tool doesn't store anything itself - it just looks for the images on the panomax servers that drive the BBC webcam, and pulls them from there. If the image for a particular date/time isn't there, it's not anywhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Down staying at the lion pilton this week (snuck in a stay for a work trip) hoping to have a stroll Thursday morning before heading back home. Hope I see something! I've got a work trip to Devon this week, Friday morning I'm going to pop by the festival on my way home to Manchester. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does anyone remember when they usually stop allowing us walk around the site? It was around the time they started building the fence last year iirc. Mid-May time? I’d quite like to go before they do!

Last time we had a chat with the security guard at Mary’s Gate, and guess who drove past and gave us a cheery smile and wave from his red Land Rover!

MJP Posted March 29, 2023 Report Share Posted March 29, 2023 Any idea what they're up to to the right of the pyramid stage? During the festival, this is used for tour bus parking. They appear to be digging the grass up. I thought it might be new long drop pits but it just looks like they're removing turf. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
