Some computers seem to not see the Story on the side, no idea why?

Here they are

 

Follow me on twitter @DanTasticGlasto or instagram @DanTasticGlastonbury to see photos and locations of the bins

Watch our video! -

That time of year is approaching once again, the line-up has been announced, the greatest party on Earth....

GLASTONBURY 2016!

As is now tradition, we'll be painting personalisedbins for anyone kind enough to make a donation to CARE International. Last year we raised £5000, helping save the lives of thousands of people, let's try and beat that figure this year, do something great and sponsor your very own Glastonbury bin!

Make sure to leave what you want on your bin and your name in the comment! (Read below for rules)

 

• There are 100 guaranteed charity bins in easy to find locations for those who make the minimum donation
• £25 donation - Guaranteed bin + tweet and instagram of your bin and where to find it
• <£25 donation - All efforts will be made to get your bin done, but will be once the others have been finished
• £25+ Skip to the front of the queue!
• Refrain from sending photos of people/pets, they will be done but don't forget that we have 14,000 bins to paint, so it may have to be rushed and look naff!
• No words or telephone numbers (minimal initials are OK)
• Requests must be family friendly (no distressing scenes, no sexual anything, no David Cameron)
• You cannot request your bin to be in a specific area, bins are sometimes moved around after painting.

Let's make this the best Glastonbury yet, see you all in a field soon!

This is amazing, I didn't know about you or what you do! I wish I was going, I think I would ask for 'Jack. If you propose to me on the hill I will say yes' as a hint to my boyfriend haha.

Thanks clarkete and nightcrawler13.

Going to get one for my bro and his girlfriend as they can't make it this year.

Ah it's a lovely idea,  but you'd fall  foul of the rule  about words ;-)

[nightcrawler13]

we make an exception for proposals

we've had three people propose by bin, and I've married one of the couples

Aw that's so lovely! What's the latest we can request/donate? Only asking as we don't technically have tickets YET. I'm holding my hopes out for the secret sale haha.

Definitely teared up during the video!

Ah - I didn't see the rules either.

Has my request for a Taps Aff bin fallen foul of the regulations?

[danmarks]

Done. And it feels good

It's been a taps aff, taps oan, taps aff kind of day today.

[CaledonianGonzo]

Hah.  Just got telt.

[stutheblue]

Just done mine, I'm not going this year but daughter and boyfriend are. Hopefully will be a nice surprise for them and great cause. Have to keep a look out now on Twitter.

Dan,

Well done on reaching your target!  Looks like there might be some bins still left, so this can act as a bump as well!

[nightcrawler13]

your link doesn't seem to be working, does that mean no more bins available to paint?

[Lucy92]

Is there any way of getting involved and helping you guys paint bins? I really love this!!! The painted bins look great!

[muddychick]

Gah. Just did mine but couldn't see the rules beforehand. Asked for words  and was £25 with the gift aid. Does this count or can I top it up somehow?

[nightcrawler13]

We have 8 bins left!

(Yes muddychick, just donate another £5 and put in your revised desire! )

I've made a donation for a bin from Jamie & Claudia 

By the way I missed an important point - Fred the bear needs to be wearing a bow tie if possible please!

[Herbee]

Been a efest member a few years, enjoy reading forum, but feel like I've lurked without imput for far too long. Sooooo, I've purchased a bin, along with my sons approval, can't wait to find it in the fields soon.Wouldn't have even known about the bins if it wasn't for this forum, so thanks to all. 

[Greenelk]

Bump - looks like there may be a couple left

[mandolin]

Did Dan say that he'd post pictures of "our" bins this year - sure that's what happened last year?
