Bekah551 Posted November 20, 2016 Report Share Posted November 20, 2016 Good Morning everyone My name is Rebekah, (an efest lurker for years but finally signed up) and I'm from Sunderland. Sadly this is the first year myself and my boyfriend didn't manage to get tickets but we have everything crossed for the resale! Stayed at Worthy View the past 2 years so if anyone has any questions about that feel free to ask. It's been fab to read so many helpful posts over the years and hope to be able to return the favour Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kateymay Posted January 1, 2017 Report Share Posted January 1, 2017 On 02/11/2016 at 9:51 PM, Yoghurt on a Stick said: Hello Kateymay You've been lurking since 2009! I'm just wondering, have you ever wanted to post before or is it a case of you just like reading people's posts? I'd say that I'd ask that question of all lurkers out there. I'd hate to think that people lurk because they are too shy, timid, nervous etc not to post. Anyway, I realise that asking you that question would force you to post an answer - don't bother if you don't feel like doing so / want to. Ive only just seen your comment, sorry!! I'm not sure why I've not posted really, I've always loved reading the comments on here but Im perhaps not a natural people person - although since my above post I have posted a couple more times Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used to just read but then took the plunge and started posting. Even though I personally haven't been on here too much of late I still understand that this site can only survive if people actually post. So, please keep on posting.

grumpyhack Posted January 4, 2017 Report Share Posted January 4, 2017 I find posting on here quite different to places like Facebook. The lovely thing about EFests is that no one knows you - unless you've been to an EFests meet at a festival and, even then, you probably only get to put a dozen or so faces to names. On Facebook everyone knows you so there could be an 'embarrassment factor' with people who know you reading what you've written. On EFests you can hide behind whatever persona you choose to present and the one thing we all have in common is a love of festivals - even if we don't always agree with each other's musical tastes. We all start with a shared interest and, therefore, all have something to offer and contribute - even if it might only be advice to other would-be festival goers. So I'd say to other Lurkers come on in and enjoy having a chat about your passion. Provided you stay clear of the politics or Scottish issues, no one is going to have a go at you and you might even develop a thick enough skin to challenge Neil from time to time.

BobbyHunter2017 Posted January 4, 2017 Report Share Posted January 4, 2017 Hi guys, Always used this site to check rumours and it has never let me down in the past! Thought I would create a profile and see if the members of this forum will be as welcoming and warm as when I have visited Worthy Farm. Peace and tranquility, Bob Hunter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope, Scottish notes aren't 'legal tender'. Legal tender can't be refused for payment. Scottish notes can be refused. I've been in enough shops in my lifetime that have refused them, so I won't accept them myself now. It's a pain in the arse to try and buy something and then find they won't take Scottish notes.

Radi0Head Posted January 28, 2017 Report Share Posted January 28, 2017 Hello all, I've been a lurker for a little while and decided to make an account and hopefully meet some people who are going to UK festivals this year as volunteers (anyone?). This will be my first Glastonbury, I've been to other smaller festivals before and have wanted to go to Glastonbury since I was a kid. I'm very very excited to see Radiohead come June Joe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
