Price seems too good to be true. Very spacious and able to stand up in it. Thinking of buying, only 2 of us will be in it... worth it? I got one of these for Glasto 17. I was in it by myself but I shared it with my son at GM and it was fine for 2 but wouldn't want any more in there. I also bought a canopy for it for about £30 which is great for sitting around under if it's too hot or raining. Mines done 5 festivals now and it's still in good shape.

You from Somerset’s armpit too then?:-) We always park on the side of the road near the Recreation Ground in Pilton. Then it’s an easy stroll either down Muddy lane or through past the site office onto the top of Big Ground camping and on to the Pyramid field. Going by signs on the gate yesterday Security will shortly be present. But you may be lucky. Edited May 7, 2019 by Yeo-vile idiot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've given it a quick look on google maps - seems pretty straight forward - thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StormCrow Posted May 7, 2019 Report Share Posted May 7, 2019 Made this test belt pouch today to hold money cards etc. No need to worry about losing your wallet as this is safely fastened to your belt. I’m probably going to be making a revised version of this for everyone in our group once my custom Glastonbury leather stamp arrives from china. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not even a football fan and I thought that second half was impressive. My partner (who is a massive football fan) was going crazy! Enjoy it, and good luck in a few weeks!

dotdash79 Posted May 8, 2019 Report Share Posted May 8, 2019 Made 2 claims for delayed trains. I’ve managed to save about £80 so far in the last 2 months of commuting via trains and claiming every time I can. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mostly Northern rail, I have to get 2 trains each way so the likelyhood of a delay is higher. I had a £50 claim for a delayed train from Swansea which has helped.

There's a balance between mushing the fruit and sieving it out later - if you squish too much then you'll have more pulp in your final drink. If you don't squish enough, you don't get all the juice. So what I do is put the washed fruit in the freezer the night before - this helps release the juice once thawed in the vodka/gin. Ours is looking fab now - lovely rich colour. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
