DareToDibble Posted June 25, 2019 Report Share Posted June 25, 2019 Was hoping the sun would be blazing today to dry up the ground. Just realised I stupidly don’t have any welly/football socks so even if I do take wellies my feet will take a battering. Dammit! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You would never get me putting my camper on that slope ! the top, just before it starts to get step is where staff usually park, if they have campers. A friend of mine is there most years, he gets there sunday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But really pretty straightforward to navigate around bigger muddy bits. End of railway line in SE Corner is pretty soggy but still not deep enough for waders!

Skoo Posted June 25, 2019 Report Share Posted June 25, 2019 I’m here!! Absolutely buzzing and camped up in CV West. Currently lovely warm temp and overcast with the sun trying to poke through. Ground is great, soft enough to get pegs in without a mallet but nice and firm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Watchy Posted June 25, 2019 Report Share Posted June 25, 2019 The ground has definitely dryed up since we went down this morning to Gate B and just returned. There are muddy bits, it’s the on-site traffic making it worse. The campsites are fine . If it doesn’t rain again it will dry out . These boots were fine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sku Posted June 25, 2019 Report Share Posted June 25, 2019 (edited) Since boot photos are currently the trend, here are mine from a walk around the site today. A few muddy patches here and there, particularly on vehicle routes, but nothing scary. Already dried out a lot since this morning.

kalifire Posted June 25, 2019 Report Share Posted June 25, 2019 Looks like walking boots will be fine then. It’ll only improve from here with no more rain forecast. It’s the churn of traffic and 200,000 people that will mess things up now but I reckon we’ll start fine and end great! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deebeedoobee Posted June 25, 2019 Report Share Posted June 25, 2019 (edited) Big Dog is signing off now to go on his holibobs. As you can see from the photo he is delighted that the ground is great and the weather will be perfect. Don’t forget to put your lead in the Lock up. Take your water bowl. You may need a blanket for your basket at night. Ps he says there is shite all over the farm so don’t be surprised if you sit down in some. PPs he will not be seeing you in the fields this week. PPPs some of you folks have really ace t shirts. Edited June 25, 2019 by deebeedoobee 4 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Almost all of the muddy patches can be walked around. Plenty of people are wearing trainers. Still wouldn't wear your best trainers though!
