Daveograve Posted October 16, 2016 Report Share Posted October 16, 2016 I like to book for Sunday lunch at the Deluxe Diner. Is there any other things at Glastonbury you need to book beforehand? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pre and post festival hotel or campsite, especially if you have a long way to travel home.

Little Andy Posted October 16, 2016 Report Share Posted October 16, 2016 Nah, just your transport. Other than that, it's the list of stuff you should (and shouldn't) bring that should be planned. And arguably choosing 2 or 3 acts per day you def wanna see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aragorn Posted October 16, 2016 Report Share Posted October 16, 2016 Not so much booking but I've really got to stop taking so much stuff half of which never gets used Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stuartbert two hats Posted October 16, 2016 Report Share Posted October 16, 2016 (edited) Not a jot. All plans at the festival are provisional, although there's a fairly good chance I'll be seeing Radiohead. Got the coach package, so everything is already booked. Only thing left to do is bimble.

fat_man_joe Posted October 16, 2016 Report Share Posted October 16, 2016 Just some coach tickets. I'd hate to have something I had to do at Glastonbury just because I'd booked it before hand. I don't even like picking more than 3-4 bands I want to see over the whole weekend. Everyone does it differently though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quark Posted October 16, 2016 Report Share Posted October 16, 2016 At least 2 days off work. I went back to my (new) job on the Tuesday this year, what a fucking error that was! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fucking hell, it's a wonder you weren't sectioned that day let alone show your new employer what a diligent hard worker you are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slash's hat Posted October 16, 2016 Report Share Posted October 16, 2016 Book CV field ticket, then a caravan to put in it. Doing far less prep and planning this year, last year didn't feel I saw the festival..just bands if that makes sense, was in part the conditions, but this year doing things differently.

I warned them about time off for Glastonbury when they made the offer, thinking they'd want to start me the week after. Instead I started the week before and did Wed-Tue, then pissed off for a week and came back an absolute wreck! Not fired yet though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quark Posted October 16, 2016 Report Share Posted October 16, 2016 Add this to my effort to buy tickets and enter ref and bank details with an Xbox controller and you're starting to get a picture of what I class as "acceptable risk" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSF Posted October 16, 2016 Report Share Posted October 16, 2016 Still to book the bus hotel/apartments for before and after. Travelling down from Glasgow so will probably book somewhere in Birmingham, done that last year and it was a god send! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avalon_Fields Posted October 16, 2016 Report Share Posted October 16, 2016 I once was compelled to visit one of our biggest customers for a meeting in Norwich on the Monday after, 11am, I had a semi-wash in the services and put my suit on driving up, then my boss insisted I go to our HQ in the West Midlands for a meeting. He just wanted to laugh at my terrible state! That was all pretty much my own fault thinking I could get away with sort of working, i.e. Answering the phone etc, on the Monday. Never again! Book plenty of time to recouperate! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rubber Soldier Posted October 17, 2016 Report Share Posted October 17, 2016 Hire car for the journey down from Glasgow. Flight home to Glasgow on Monday. As much time off afterwards as reasonably possible. Most of our group were still getting sleep paralysis nightmares the weekend after this year.

Aha course yeah. Bit of beauty sleep for the cat in the cattery so! Had my folks looking after ours on hols. Dog people so had to explain that they cant just call it in like a dog. He comes home when he wants. Think they realised this after 2 hours of waiting in the kitchen for him to come in.

What would you give the roast potatoes out of 10 (unless there aren't any, in which case this conversation is pointless), likewise with the Yorkshire pudding (see previous brackets)?
