Yes, booked it off as couldn’t risk not getting the time off once I hopefully get a ticket, that would be awful!

Need some help....with Resale Day looming ever larger myself and Mrs P have been discussing our 'accommodation' options if we get lucky in the sale.  We've used Tangerine Fields for a few years now but unless we manage to bag a cancellation in TF we're looking at camping on site - something that we've not ever done before (mainly due to early years being spent in a number of VW Campers...).

This prospect isn't sitting well with Mrs P who likes a little space and comfort, so I need some ideas on how to do it with as little stress as possible.  The plan so far is as follows:-

- park in West

- get a decent trolley and load it with just the essentials, tent, bedding, clothes, toothbrush so that in the event of p*ssing rain etc we won't have to do more trips immediately.

- camp on West side in Pylon, Bushy etc where ground is flat and in previous years there seems to be more space than elsewhere.  is this still the case?  How late could we turn up to find space here?

Anything else I can do to make life as easy as possible?

We always camp in Pylon or Riverhead. I think it's pretty great for space and for me the location is fine. I'm perfectly happy to have to walk about a lot of it means not having someone camped on top of me! Our friends turned up with one of those ridiculous Uber tents last year on Thursday mid afternoon and it was no bother (although from around 2pm we were sitting there for a bit drinking mojitos just incase... )

I think there should be a resalers meet up if we get there. If I am lucky enough to get a ticket I have every intention of having the time of my life at the farm ??

we managed to get 92 patients into -54 beds today - so I’m thinking that grabbing a resale ticket is absolutely in all our gift people....

I’d also like to thank the entire NHS for the unbelievable work they do.

As an aside, I’d like to also thank those lovely people at see tickets for furnishing me with tickets to see Foals at some tiny venue in London next week. Let’s hope the ‘see’ gods are smiling upon us all in April

 

Amen

Mrs Is 30+ Year survivor  ? and still going , you guys work so hard and such long horrible hours , you should get free Glastonbury tickets. Have a cheeky upvote from me 

I seem to remember a few years back there was an area - Park maybe - where the work of Medecins Sans Frontiers was featured and profiled.  Perhaps it's about time the Festival did something similar to celebrate the work our fantastic NHS does for us?

I think there have been a few small scale things over the years - most recently the commitment to set aside 500 free tickets for trainee nurses, and they invited the NHS Choir to play on the Pyramid one year.

But yeah, definitely room for more, and bigger.

Thank you that’s really kind. 

Terrible news about Keith Flint, utterly tragic. 

How is everyone’s resale nerves holding up?

When do we think the date will be for the re sale ? Hoping it’s not 28th doing the London marathon ??‍♂️

When does the final balance have to be paid? if its the 6th / 7th April, then its hard to see the resale being the week after. then the weekend after that the 19th is Easter, cant imagine it being then, so it does leave that weekend of the 28th.. But that's just a guess dude.

    • Yes I'm also glad to see more experimental leftfield artists on the line up  Best line up in years 
    • Also Elefant to the Buzz.
    • I've heard him mention Deftones and Biffy as holy grail bookings in the past.   I think given Simon is back again suggests he enjoyed himself last year, not sure if they all still live in the UK so don't know if they'd match the flight thing
    • I refuse to queue for it - usually take an aeropress and some way of heating water but this year I'll be pre making a few bottles of coldbrew and having an iced coffee every morning (if we can get hold of ice, otherwise it'll be a lukewarm coffee) 
    • Himalayan salt lamps are decoration lighting that you may purchase for your house. They are made of pink Himalayan salt and are believed to offer a variety of health advantages. In reality, advocates of salt lamps believe that they can purify the air in your home, relieve allergies, improve your mood, and help you sleep.   Some people claim that Himalayan salt lamps can improve air quality, boost mood, and aid with sleep. However, there is little evidence to support these claimed health benefits.     What Are The Salt Lamps, And Why Are They Used?   Himalayan salt lamps are created by inserting a light bulb into huge chunks of pink Himalayan salt. True Himalayan salt lamps are created from salt collected from Pakistan's Khewra Salt Mine. Salt from this area is thought to be millions of years old, and while it looks quite similar to table salt, the tiny amounts of minerals it contains give it a pinkish hue. Many individuals purchase Himalayan salt lamps because they like the way they look and the peace that the pink light provides in their homes. Meanwhile, some are drawn to their potential health benefits.   How Do Pink Himalayan Salt Lamps Work?   Salt lamps are thought to have health benefits because they are "natural ionizers," which means they change the electrically charged particles of the flowing air. Ions are compounds with an uneven number of protons or electrons, which gives them a charge. They are naturally formed in the air as a result of atmospheric changes. Streams, storms, waves, natural radiation, and heat all generate air ions. They can also be generated artificially using commercially available air ionizers. It is thought that Himalayan salt lamps produce ions by attracting water particles, which evaporate as a salt solution when heated by the lamp, resulting in mainly negative ions. However, this theory is yet to be verified.   Related Topic: Is Pink Salt Better Than Normal Salt? How To Buy Pink Salt In Canada? 8 Benefits Of Pink Himalayan Salt      What Are The Health Claims, And How Do They Measure Up? They enhance the air purity   They are promoted as helpful for persons suffering from allergies, asthma, or respiratory disorders such as cystic fibrosis. There is presently no proof that using a Himalayan salt lamp can eliminate harmful bacteria and enhance indoor air quality. The argument that they are beneficial to persons with respiratory issues may be based on the ancient technique of halotherapy. According to this therapy, persons with chronic respiratory diseases are helped by spending time in saltwater caves since salt is present in the air. Some researchers have found that this approach may be beneficial to specific respiratory disorders, but further high-quality studies are still needed.   Eases Coughing As you are aware, the benefits listed in the previous section highlight the distinct characteristics of Himalayan salt lamps. When these lamps heat up, they emit negative ions that offset the positive ions in our surroundings, resulting in cleaner air quality. This process increases cilial activity in our airways, which aids in the removal substances from the lungs. In essence, Himalayan salt lamps act as natural air filters, promoting general health.   In a nutshell, Himalayan pink salt lamps not only remove impurities from the air but also assist your body filter air more efficiently, making sure any foreign particles you inhale do not enter your lungs.   They can help you sleep   There have been no studies looking into the impact of Himalayan salt lamps on sleep. However, a 2013 study examining the effects of air ionization on relaxation and sleep found no evidence of a positive effect. Thus, even if salt lamps have an effect on the air environment, it is unknown whether this will change sleep patterns. If you replace strong electric lights with a Himalayan salt lamp, the dark light could help encourage weakness near the end of the day. This is because being exposed to bright light before bedtime can cause the sleep hormone melatonin to be produced later.   SUMMARY: Himalayan salt lamps are said to improve air quality, elevate mood, and aid in sleep. However, there is right now insufficient evidence to support these statements.     Do Pink Salt Lamps Provide Any Benefits?   Although some of its health claims have not been verified by science, Himalayan salt lamps may provide additional benefits. This includes: They are attractive: If you like how they look, they could be a good addition to your home. They help to create a soothing atmosphere that allows you to unwind. They may help minimize light in the evening: If you have trouble sleeping, utilizing dim lights in the evening may help you fall asleep more quickly.     Further Ways to Purify Your Home Air   Himalayan pink salt lamps are not the only technique to improve your home's air quality. Pair them with air purifying houseplants or any of these other easy but incredible ways to naturally filter the air in your home, helping you and your family to breathe the healthiest, cleanest air imaginable!     Read More...
