Glasto Weatherwatch Posted June 16, 2017 Report Share Posted June 16, 2017 Anyone know where @devonhammer and @pedmills are this year? For once we have a forecast brimming with promise and they've gone AWOL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where should I get them and how do you attached them? I like my sleep. Not a clue, I've never used them either! From what I understand though I think the idea is to make them rustle in the wind as much as possible. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

somecoolusername Posted June 16, 2017 Report Share Posted June 16, 2017 In 2011 I went to the site in shoes, with my wellies in my bag. That was the year of the Wednesday deluge so my shoes got fucking ruined. Ever since then I've had the fear, and have always traveled in my wellies, and reassed the situation once onsite. I'm really tempted to travel down in trainers (providing the outlook remains positive). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last year I changed at Bath & West. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glasto Weatherwatch Posted June 16, 2017 Report Share Posted June 16, 2017 I've got to be honest, I'm struggling to keep my hopes in check. This looks pretty fucking great at the moment. We've been here before and it's gone South. STAY ON TARGET Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks at the moment like the high will be west enough to keep it out the way but so much can change. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaledonianGonzo Posted June 16, 2017 Report Share Posted June 16, 2017 Yeah. I'm a long way from counting my chickens. Probably helps that my packing looks identical regardless of the weather. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alanr Posted June 16, 2017 Report Share Posted June 16, 2017 (edited) Weather This is the weather site I use, really for wind as I am a kite buggy nut. Ford Farm weather station is about 15miles NW of Pilton. If this is right I'll be happy Edited June 16, 2017 by alanr Cropped image Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swede Posted June 16, 2017 Report Share Posted June 16, 2017 My wife bought me a wellie bag last night. As were going on coach we don't want to wear willies to travel in and they'll take up too much rucksack room. I'm hopeful of putting those fuckers in that bag and not taking the bastards back out once I'm there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The politicians don't want to deal with the problem, those affected struggle to come to terms with their addiction and its a viscious cycle of dispair and discomfort. Talk to frank. And take boots.
