FloorFiller Posted June 17, 2019 Report Share Posted June 17, 2019 Christ that video of water pissing out of the ground from 2016 sure makes me feel better about this year ? those two side by side videos are a godsend for my mud anxiety. Still time for damage to be done (including over the festival) but at least we're pretty far out from heading for another muddy slog like 2016.

Spindles Posted June 17, 2019 Report Share Posted June 17, 2019 Aye, we don't have a mahoosive lake onsite like we did this time in 2016 either. Ground's not going to be perfect, but we are going to be a fair bit better off than 3 years back. Saying that, we all coped, it was a decent festival, I'd rather that than miss the festival any year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sawdusty surfer Posted June 17, 2019 Author Report Share Posted June 17, 2019 Not been onsite for a few days now but daught#2 phoned about half an hour ago.She's there and said that the change in conditions underfoot were extraordinary today. This afternoon it seems that everything has firmed right up.She is extremely optimistic with the prospects. I'll be back tomorrow or Wednesday dropping stuff off and will report back. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joshuwarr Posted June 17, 2019 Report Share Posted June 17, 2019 I think we all need to realise that if it was going to be like 2016 we'd know by now. Its going to be fine. Frankly I'll take a slightly drizzly Wednesday over the intense heat of 2017! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is precisely why we have NFR NFC! Bring your wellies or there will be trouble! We need to keep the weather gods happy by bringing waterproofs and suncream so we are ready for anything!

deebeedoobee Posted June 18, 2019 Report Share Posted June 18, 2019 Good morning peeps getting this in before the deluge. RAM jam jar = is showing 30mm. Which means we have had further evaporation in the last 24 hours well sticky stick = well dry. Base hardening. Mud thick for 3 inches. Big Dog paws= warm and sweet smelling RAM jam jar has been joined by the gherkin pot. This will be measured then emptied every morning to record 24 hours of rainfall. shit ....any more measures and I’ll need to retire just to keep up! 1 45 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
