Wow!! What a 48 hours, all 3 of us secured places with Oxfam! If anyone needs any help with Oxfam let me know and I’ll show you how I did it!

I have not got my recycling letter yet and feeling quite grumpy about it.

Not got my tickets and passes for access stewarding yet. Meant to be sent out this week. Do I need to start panicking yet?

If you could let me know how you did it that'd be greatly appreciated. I've been keeping an eye out but can't refresh constantly!

Thanks

if you have google chrome, download a web monitor called distill and set up to track the my festivals page, make sure you’re logged in obviously and set the refresh speed to the lowest which is 5 seconds and then keep that page open on another tab, you’ll then get a ping every time the page changes. You can add an instant email notification aswell so make sure you have pop up notifications on your phone so if you’re away from your PC you can still see the ping in your phone, so whenever there is a change make sure you give it a refresh and hope it’s glastonbury!

Thanks, do you monitor the whole page or just a section? Also, how do you add the notification? Thanks for your help!

CTM are still looking for people for traffic management.

Don't know what shifts are though & most probably they'll be off site.

I reserved my place just over a week ago, training is on Thursday, I haven’t had anything through in the post. Is that pretty normal?

The only thing you'd receive by physical mail would be a parking pass - you won't get sent a ticket. Apparently the parking passes were sent out this week and started arriving today. You should get an E-Mail with arrival instructions at some point - the main batch went out last week, I imagine another "mop up" batch will go out at some point soonish to the late additions like yourself.

My letter and pass arrived yesterday Hurrah
