Everyone on my list I think got a ticket.... not sure about one waiting to hear.

and on that note.

 

Bon Voyage.

Well done! I heard from Jason and I was trying for his friend but I only got through as it sold out.  I tried!

Nice one Thurlow wnd brighternow what a star for getting through 

feeling bit down for all those that missed out, including buddies .... After Thursday's success it seems like a lot of miss outs today, do you think they put on more coaches and weighted it towards coach resales ?

Thanks again @BrighterNow wouldnt be going if it wasnt for you

And thanks to everyone how helped try for me or anyone else on these forums

I'm SO happy I got through for you!  It was an amazing feeling.

It's been quite a day - after the emotion of resale day, I went down to Brighton to see my brother-in-law run in the marathon.  He was over the moon as he did it in less than 3.5 hours.  So more happiness there!  And I managed to see my other three friends who were running too.  And I walked over 9 miles (good practice for Glastonbury!)

Along with thurlow, BrighterNow also got mrs gumby a ticket this morning :) I've been solo once before, and would do it again if she couldn't go for some reason, but I can't deny I'm happier that we can now go together, along with gumby jr. We'll see you at one of the meets, BrighterNow, what's your tipple?

If I remember correctly she has sampled my concoction?! And liked it! Well done @BrighterNow, it's such a good feeling when you help someone with the golden ticket!

I have indeed, Curlygirl!  Most delicious it was too.  And you're right, it's an amazing feeling when you're able to help someone get a ticket.  I was really emotional yesterday morning.

Well, who wouldn't? She can sample my concoction all she likes in June! ;) 

Haha, there's an offer I can't refuse.  I do hope Mrs Gumby won't mind.

Actually, is it you who's bringing the pineapple gin?  Because if so, that's something I'd love to try.  A sip of pineapple gin will be all the thanks I need!

No, there are a few people who said they're planning to make that, but I wasn't one of them. I will be bringing a few homemade drinks, though. I'm planning to make some mince pie whisky, and some kind of flavoured vodka (possibly marmalade flavour, or peach melba). I'm also currently making some Seville orange wine, which might be ready in time.

Some of you should get together and open a bloody pub,

Be sure to make a bloody bomb :D

Love the ideas man :thumbsu:

Mmmmmm, marmalade or peach melba vodka sound delicious!  And you're right, Tommy - sometimes I get bored with the stuff on offer at pubs.  I'd definitely go to one that offered marmalade vodka, pineapple gin and cherry brandy!

I,d prob end up one of them who end up waiting for opening time shaking like a shitting dog outside the boozer wanting my fix of Pineapple gin and CG`s bakewell special, haha.

How long do these alcohol infusions take? If I started soon would I get a decent result in time for Glastonbury?

Most only take a couple of weeks at most, although the longer you leave them, the more flavour you get. There are some recipes that taste a bit harsh when first made, but improve with storage. I made orange brandy recently, that took ten days to infuse, but will be kept for several months to mature. I made mince pie whisky at Christmas, that took 2 weeks, but was ready to drink straight away. 

Have a look at www.boozedandinfused.com if you want some ideas.

    • Not necessarily but it should be, Download have a habit of messing it uo when others get the bookings on point. Good Charlotte I doubt are playing 3rd down and that too 3 that day while dreamy is too strong. I think you'd have one another day to help sell weekend tickets. I also doubt Papa Roach play. 
    • Here's a bit of a wild stab, few placings may be off, and for all I know half of these won't actually be touring next year, but screw it, it's a bit of fun   Pyramid: Sabrina Carpenter, Phoebe Bridgers, TBA (Florence + The Machine), Garbage, The Last Dinner Party, Interpol, Alex James Britpop Classical Other: Chase & Status, Teddy Swims, Clairo, The Kooks, Zara Larsson, Kingfishr, Sports Team, Orbital West Holts: Robyn, Baby Keem, De La Soul, Deltron 3030, JID, Dua Saleh, kwn, Daniela Latila Woodsies: Bonobo, Darkside, TBA (Tame Impala), Laufey, Warmduscher, Wednesday, The Lottery Winners, The Royston Club, Florence Road Park: Patti Smith, Super Furry Animals, Slayyyter, The Cardigans, Skye Newman, Kelly Lee Owens, Teen Jesus & The Jean Teasers   Pyramid: Harry Styles, The xx, Richard Ashcroft, The Pogues, Jessie J, Sigrid, Travis Other: Rosalia, Sombr, Mitski, Alex Warren, Holly Humberstone, Cat Burns, Pale Waves, Yard Act West Holts: Basement Jaxx, Elyanna, Clipse, L’Imperatrice, Nation of Language, Jim Legxacy, Yazmin Lacey, RIP Magic Woodsies: Suede, Chvrches, Bleachers, MUNA, The Cribs, Keo, Bleech 9:3, The Lilacs Park: MARINA, Magdalena Bay, Jacob Alon, TBA (Lily Allen performs West End Girl), Getdown Services, Isaac Wood, Snail Mail, Madra Salach Pyramid: Sam Fender, Hozier, David Byrne, Cher, Obongjayar, David Gray, Billy Ocean Other: Doja Cat, Deftones, Addison Rae, Ren, Viagra Boys, Maisie Peters, The Reytons, Hard Life West Holts: Kano, Thievery Corporation, Angine De Poitrine, Thee Sacred Souls, Brooke Combe, Sasha Keable, Master Peace Woodsies: The Wombats, Metronomy, Geese*, Dry Cleaning, EsDeeKid, Sienna Spiro, Cowboy Hunters, Radio Free Alice Park: Big Thief, Laura Marling, MJ Lenderman, Richard Dawson, Oklou, Maruja, Dead Dads Club, Ratboys   *There's always one band booked for Woodsies that ends up being massively under-billed and gets shut down really early. They'd be better off playing somewhere like Other sub, but I could see the G getting them to play a smaller stage while it's still possible
    • Another Kraftwerk one for me today, as just back from seeing them.    
    • Completed my 2026 survey. Put down Super Furry Animals as my most wanted for next year but suspect the moment has gone for that. Popped a big shopping list in the box for who else you would like to see. 🙂
