Now in cans, I far prefer gamma ray. But on draft, I kinda prefer neck oil. Also i find I can go down from gamma ray to neck oil (GR is 20p more so when someone has it we rip them for making the round pricey) but I can't go the other way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Losing my hair Posted August 8, 2018 Report Share Posted August 8, 2018 Hi All, Another EOTR newbie here, just couldn't resist the chance of seeing Vampire Weekend. Hope to meet some of you there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will probably take cans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AdamGNJ Posted August 14, 2018 Report Share Posted August 14, 2018 Newbie question - What times do films start in the cinema each day? At green man a couple of years ago, a highlight was watching films in the mornings as I don't tend to sleep late in a tent, hoping to catch Isle of Dogs on the Saturday before the music kicks in.

Do they do blow up mattresses etc I recollect they have had camping accessories in the past but don't recollect any pumps, etc. I certainly don't recollect having witnessed any controlled explosions, but they probably leave those to the more senior stewards.

Andeeroo Posted August 24, 2018 Report Share Posted August 24, 2018 How busy does the lockup get? It's something I always use at G but I may not at EotR if the queues are lengthy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Nal Posted August 28, 2018 Report Share Posted August 28, 2018 I don't want to be that guy but whats the story with phone charging? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sean1234321 Posted August 28, 2018 Report Share Posted August 28, 2018 There is a tent where you can pay to charge your phone...I can't remember how much it is though and whether the charge is daily, or whether you have to leave your phone there or if it's portable (probably renders this info useless!)....however, why wouldn't you just buy your own portable charger? You can get a 20000mah one that will last the whole weekend and then some for £20 these days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember thinking the coffee at the Double R Diner-esque coffee place by the cinema was good. I'm definitely no coffee snob though so my standards are probably considerably lower. Definitely better than most festivals through. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have one of these which charges up the phone 4 or more times - a bargain at £7.99. https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00MWU1GGI/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o05_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Edited August 28, 2018 by Nobody Interesting Helps to put the link in!!

As the lockups at Green Man were run by CND and at EOTR they are run by Friends of the Earth this post is probably completely pointless.

The cinema is usually open early morning, if I remember correctly. Have a vague memory of watching Fantastic Mr Fox in a semi drunk state one morning...Hope that helps.

Nobody Interesting Posted August 29, 2018 Report Share Posted August 29, 2018 On entry can you just bring in the tent and then come back in via a reentry line or do you have to queue up in the main queue again for a 2nd load? Trying to avoid doing it all in one if we can. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sean1234321 Posted August 29, 2018 Report Share Posted August 29, 2018 Once you get your wristband you can come and go via a different queueless lane separate from the main entry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yesiamaduck Posted August 29, 2018 Report Share Posted August 29, 2018 The Lock Up can provide you with portable batteries, forgot what it cost but it was very inexpensive. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
