I'm kind of OK with it now but suspect that closer to the time I'll feel like I've made a tactical error. That said, I'll get through it - somehow. Looks like I'm going to be the Night Watchman around these parts come the day. I can feel the build up on here. It'll be fever pitch by the time people start heading off to the festival. I know that I'll miss the efests meet up the most. It's a fine example of how things could be and should be in terms of friendliness and goodwill.

Supernintendo Chalmers Posted June 3, 2015 Report Share Posted June 3, 2015 Green Travel? Maybe I'll plant a dozen trees to offset my carbon footprint? I didn't mention the 9000 mile flight from Australia, followed by the 200 miles drive from Heathrow to North Devon. But we'll keep that between us, ok?

mickeyboymel Posted June 3, 2015 Report Share Posted June 3, 2015 Stuck in a Bath hotel waiting patiently for Thursday Morning - Misread my coach booking - lol- thought I was going on Wednesday when I booked it so now have to stay in Bath an extra day - so close yet so far away Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spindles Posted June 3, 2015 Report Share Posted June 3, 2015 Either waiting for the gates to open or inside setting up, depending on the generosity of the organisers in when they chose to open gate A. My journey is going to involve a lot of walking, buses and trains, starting at about 10.00 Tuesday night. As a camp solo early arrival I'll be helping out with people meeting up and getting set up together, so I'm hoping to find some time for a bit of shut eye during the day before the eFests meet or everything will fall on it's arse at some point, as I'll have been up 24 hours or more and had a tiring journey in the mix.

JoeyT Posted June 3, 2015 Report Share Posted June 3, 2015 I bloody love these kind of threads!!!! I'll either be waking up around now in east campervan fields or already up and cooking bacon sarnies. Probably have a smoke and a brew whilst watching people walk past with all their stuff heading towards gate c. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
