Glastosmile15 Posted June 14, 2015 Report Share Posted June 14, 2015 It was really hard to take. The worst bit was on the Sunday me and the wife had a bit of time to ourselves, she just broke down in tears at one point at how miserable our friends had made it at certain points, I remember her saying "this is our special place and they've fucking ruined it", like I said we've got unfinished business this year Hope you have a brilliant time this year.

Mr Splodge Posted June 14, 2015 Report Share Posted June 14, 2015 Not at all well, had a almighty flare up in one of my disabilities a few weeks back. Really do not want to go this year but I have convinced myself that I will have a great time, made some great friends over the past few festivals so looking forward to catching up.

Keithy Posted June 14, 2015 Report Share Posted June 14, 2015 I may well have fractured a metatarsal on the outside of my foot but am in denial as this would be a really annoying thing to have done and if I ignore it it will all go away. That's the spirit! Alcohol will numb any pain at glasto. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sloseph Posted June 15, 2015 Report Share Posted June 15, 2015 I was doing a great job of getting fit for glasto but in the last few weeks I've fallen of the wagon and eaten like a pig and put on a fair whack of the weight i'd lost I've been keeping up with the running every week but not as much as I would have liked, hopefully my legs will be in good shape for all the walking Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Avalon_Fields Posted June 15, 2015 Report Share Posted June 15, 2015 I'm definitely fitter than last year...mainly as I'd had a major operation 9th April and had to take it easy. Challenge is I drink less than ever, so I don't know how I will cope with bucketloads of alcohol. Badly I expect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dog Burger Posted June 15, 2015 Report Share Posted June 15, 2015 My ears hurt, more so when I listen to anything loud or trebly, as the consequence of rehearsing in band in front of a loud trebly Fender valve amp every week (with ear plugs). This is my only physical ailment at this stage, but I'll be bringing my ear plugs to Glastonbury with me for the first time to try to prevent further damage!

mjsell Posted June 15, 2015 Report Share Posted June 15, 2015 I'm in possibly the worst condition I have ever been in prior to a festival. Have been suffering with back and neck problems for months now (the back seems to have improved but the neck is getting worse and worse) and last week I rolled my ankle playing football and damaged the ligaments - was on crutches last week, can walk on it now though but it aches if I walk too much atm, which obviously is very worrying. I am hoping it continues to improve and doesn't affect me too much at Glastonbury but I know it will. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Space Shanty Posted June 15, 2015 Report Share Posted June 15, 2015 Had a stag do in Ibiza for 4 days last week which gave me a great insight into how less w*nkered I can afford to get these days before Beelzebub arrives in full attack mode. There is no way I'm enduring another flight like that so Mr Moderation is now the name of the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Homer Posted June 15, 2015 Report Share Posted June 15, 2015 I can still do pretty well on the drinking. However, I had to introduce two rules a few years back: I don't start drinking until after I've eaten something and I don't drink until after midday.

However, I had to introduce two rules a few years back: I don't start drinking until after I've eaten something and I don't drink until after midday. I'll start drinking after breakfast, just ease myself into the day, I smoke my glasto ciggies pretty much all day. I do have a rule that I cant start on the marching powder until after my lunch and then everything else until my last meal of the day, usually about 4-5.

blackred Posted June 15, 2015 Report Share Posted June 15, 2015 Not in the slightest, in the worst shape I've been for a few years . Body will be taking a beating this weekend as well with little time to recover by Tuesday night, I reckon I will struggle this year....

The Placid Casual Posted June 15, 2015 Report Share Posted June 15, 2015 Nothing worse than peaking too early at a festival. I usually pace through the day then get properly Gillespie'd at night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hotchilidog Posted June 15, 2015 Report Share Posted June 15, 2015 A dodgy ankle and a fairly relentless gigging schedule have not left me in the best of shape. If I'm honest I think all that walking, dancing and restricting myself to on-site boozing may actually see Glastonbury improve my health rather than ruin it!
