Madyaker Posted April 15, 2022 Report Share Posted April 15, 2022 1 hour ago, Yoghurt on a Stick said: Hello Madyaker, No, not going this year.* In fact, I haven't been since 2014. Not sure, but I think i may have hung my Glastonbury spurs up for good. However, I'm old enough to know that one should never say never. * - I may enter a competition or two, and if by some crazy stroke of good fortune I get a ticket that way, I may end up going. 5 of my mates are going and it would be nice to spend time with them there once again. As I say though, it'll be down to fate. Wishing you a fab festival. 🙂 PS - I don't know why I stay around on this site given my 'retirement' from Glastonbury. I guess it just allows me to talk the bollocks that I do. There's no point half arseing it just join a group here next year and try in the sale, you don't have to do shrooms for 5 days straight like you probably used to, just treat it like a relaxing holiday, bring a caravan etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I / we (my wife and I) do have a campervan. It would seem odd going to Glastonbury and not camping near enough where I have always camped though - especially if my mates were there next year and were camped. I must say though that I do feel that I should have one last fandango with Glastonbury. And it would indeed be a more slowed down affair. It would have to be. In fact, I think I would thoroughly enjoy it. So, yeah - never say never. By the way - I have never done a 5 day shroom bender. I don't really like tripping too much nowadays. That said, I did try some DMT the other week, but that wasn't such a pleasant experience. Oh and I kind of took some 2cb yesterday morning, and that was OK for a while, but overall strengthened my resolve to keep clear of tripping. Oh, another story from about 2 months ago - our speed dealer (at that time. He has since been fired!) accidentally (or maybe even on purpose) gave me a wrap of ket amongst a load of wraps of speed. Anyway, me and my wife were kind of drunk one night and failed to notice the difference between the two (which is fairly obvious even to the untrained eye). So we rack up two very large lines and have one each. Now it's important to say at this point that we run an Airbnb. I say this because my wife ended up in the Airbnb cabin (ie with our guests. Our surprised guests, to be more accurate) on her hands and knees, declaring all sorts of nonsense to them, while trying to help them light the log fire. I on the other hand was sprawled out on our bed thinking that I was the God Molecule - whatever that is! Talking of 'God' - if there really is a God (ie singular) do you think that God ever gets existential angst? That's to anybody reading this.

GlastoMom Posted April 22, 2022 Report Share Posted April 22, 2022 Hi All, This year will be the second glasto for me, first was in 2019. I stayed in a local hotel the night before and rocked up to the car park reasonably early, walked right in at Gate D - good camping spot in Paines (others who stayed in car park overnight queued for 5 hours at Gate A!!!). I’ve plumped for a campervan this year, can not wait to be back. 🙌🏼 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gilgamesh96 Posted May 3, 2022 Report Share Posted May 3, 2022 Hi everyone! Not new at all, but I got banned on Sunday for 3 months because "idiot topic, no post content, title only".

Sure I may have made light-hearted topics in the past - probably because this is the internet and people are allowed to have fun, not everyone takes things so seriously. But I certainly wouldn't make meaningless topics. Okay so my warning was received at 5:32pm on Sunday. I was working that day, from 10:30am til 6pm. A very busy day at work in fact, being that I work at a pub and it was a bank holiday weekend. At that point I was deep cleaning an area of the kitchen. All I can think is that maybe my phone got wet while I was cleaning and it accidentally posted a topic. Stuff like that has happened before - just a few weeks ago my phone got wet while I was working and it accidentally sent a load of gibberish messages to people on WhatsApp. Accidents happen, but I can assure you I have no problems with my memory.

That's completely possible, it doesn't require a miracle. Phones have predictive text and autocorrect these days. I don't know what else I can say. I've already explained myself clearly and anyone else would have understood and unbanned me by now, but you seem to be convinced that I've done something wrong when I can promise you I am guilty of no wrongdoing. If I did make some meaninglessness topic then I can assure you it must have been an accident - I was far too busy on Sunday to be posting on here.
