NICELY CLOUDY FTW

We also dodged a bullet a bit Sat - that heavy rain the BBC had briefly missed us by about ten miles. Nice to have a bit of luck for once :)

I watched the clouds coming from a distance and when they passed by smiled.

We also missed rain at other times that was close by - almost as though we were owed one :)

Yeah better than 2010 in my book, perfect all round. Didn't mind the thin clouds, stopped the need to slather on the suncream too much, and the slight showers kept things less dusty and softer underfoot, without risking the ground being unsittable. What a fantastic year, and several brilliant sunsets (Thursday took the prize)

I found the Wednesday too much to handle. but apart from that it was perfect festival weather.

Warm enough so you didn't have jumpers/jeans on and could just run around in shorts and t-shirts.  cool enough so you got a lie-in the mornings and a bit of rain to dust down the site.

9/10 for me!

It looked like it was about to piss it down for a lot of Friday/Saturday but barely did at all. 

At one point, less than 24 hours out, BBC had wall to wall rain forecast and yr.no had sun and cloud.  I <3 Norway.  Then my internet crapped out and I sky watched instead.  (Anyone else think EE strangled the other networks this year?  Worst phone cover since '09 for me.)

Yeah I really struggled for Vodafone reception across the weekend.

Glad you said this. I really struggled on O2. My boyfriend is on EE and was fine.

Sending a text became a trial on O2.  It was sucking battery just trying to connect.  That should not be.

 

Edit: In our group of 9, only those on Virgin which uses EE had no issues.

Virgin was perfect for the whole weekend with the one exception of just before Justice.

Best festival we've ever had for communication. Our whatsapp group was running the whole weekend.
