Just got back from a girls trip to Poland - would highly recommend it. Amazing food and beer and the people are lovely too!

My family is pretty full on right now - Sister had her first baby this week, Mam is recovering from a hand operation and Dad has just been put into a care home to meet his needs for his Alzheimers. So my time is probably going to be a lot of taxiing, visiting and errands along with regular work.

Massively looking forward to the escape of the farm this year!

Sounds like you have a lot to deal with at the moment....make sure you find time for yourself in there.  Take care.

Very similar to my glasto build up in 2013. 

Probably the least I've looked for to a festival ever due to having so much else on my plate and just not really thinking about it much until the week before.

When I got there and managed to 'escape' for 5 days I had the time of my life and to this day stands as one of my favourite Glastonburys. 

BTW I went to Poland for a stag do a couple of years ago and totally agree its a great place and the food vodka and people of Krakow where amazing.

All the best with your festival run in.

Taxiing and visiting is my life at the moment, along with own family and health stuff, as said above make sure you take care of you as well, it does get to you after a while.

Thanks everyone ? It's nice to hear people understanding how much the small things build up. Luckily I have some great family and friends who don't mind an odd moan from me every now and then!

    • My understanding is that the queues returning back to the UK will be much worse (up to two hours) but the queue entering Lisbon isn’t so bad. That’s just from reading a few forum posts about it though so take it with a pinch of salt!

    • World Cup 2026: What is happening with ticket prices? - BBC Sport   Sounds like Infantino has been learning from his buddy if he's running around claiming its all sold out while quietly dumping tickets below face on assorted secondary websites.
    • Mac DeMarco also cancelled 
    • I'm British so it very much would apply for me.   I mean, it's a moot point as I don't have tickets so will not be in town for this, but I've heard reports of lengthy queues and given I remember Lisbon Airport having a long queue at arrivals even pre-EES when I went in 2023, I seem to guess it might be quite the wait, depending on flight paths.   Certainly, the worst I've had pre-EES was a 45 minute wait for a stamp at Valencia Airport in Spain, where 4 flights to non-EU destinations in quick succession were placed one after the other. So I can't say I'm enthusiastic about what's in store. Or you know. Maybe I'm just overthinking it.
