This little number, only just realised it requires 1 hour of baking after almost 20 mins of chopping!

Yeah nice, very healthy. Looks like you're on a Glasto-next-announcement-Diet. The poster might have come out by the time you've cooked it so at least it can keep your fingers busy

Ooo what are we having?

Did a home made Pad Thai. Whole house smells of that fish sauce stuff now.

It's not coming today. However I did go and check the collection of mud I gathered from the bottom of my trolley from last years festival. My own little piece of worthy farm has started growing.

They don't seem to be that well followed. Seems like another Somerset Live type trying to cash in on the hype. Everyone is expecting it to be in the next few days, so I think they're just trying their luck to get attention

Agreed, had a look at their likes/followers and it certainly seems like one of those pages that doesn't actually serve a purpose.

Def not a Somerset Live type!

Doesn't serve a purpose because don't have many followers on Twitter? Cheers. Focus more on FB. Considering just been interviewing festival directors of other events and giving some up and coming artists some air time. Don't support touts or payola. Sorry I'll try harder to serve a purpose.

To be fair, on your Facebook page you posted the same Glastonbury thing but in the comments encouraged people to read another of your articles, which looks a bit like shameless click baiting.

I know it's daft, I actually kind of feel that once the line-up is out then it loses a little of the magic - I love the speculation. Happy enough to wait for a few more days.

Its like supporting a team that goes through longer lows than highs... the longer the wait the better it is when you finally taste a bit of glory! (Im a Palace fan, therefore it often tends to be a verrrrry long wait!)

Oh sorry, didn't know you had the intel, when's it coming then?

Ha do you know what click bait is...

"Glastonbury Festival CANCELLED in 2018..." Like titles.

Apologies if suggesting people read about small festivals in the mean time between announcements, is considered click bait.

Anyway, this is eFest forums, less talk of other publications! Ha. And I don't wanna get banned, I never promote on here!

On a Monday

[kalifire]

Just woke up and rushed to the official site, all excited.

Sigh. Another day of torture, then. Although I think Wednesday is the least likely point it'll be released this week.

That was when it was tweeted, willing to take guidance though as according to the tweets I can find for 2009 it was between 2 & 3 in the morning.

 

This is why I didn't do this before

Are you signed in to twitter and have your time zone set right?
