Thursday Arrival Crew

[Fingerbobs]

I'm another Thursday arrivalist. Thanks to the Wednesday crew for snagging the site - all the bars will be pulling perfect pints and the toilets thoroughly well oiled by the time we get there. Good work all.

The excitement of seeing the Wednesday lot arrive is too much! Normally a early doors Wednesday guy but have a Thursday coach this year! Who's got another 24hours of waiting?

Exactly this! The campsite thread is killing me. London 11am coach for this one, I don't know how I'll sleep... we can do this!

As others have said there is plenty of room in Darble & Pylon, but you can also head to the south-west. 

Bailey's and even South Park will have room at a squeeze but the best for Thursday arrivals is the green oasis that is Back House tucked between Baileys & Dairy. This one is only opened on Thursday morning and is hidden on all sides by hedges. No through traffic so guaranteed lush green grass.

That sounds like a little oasis. I use the lock ups all the time throughout the festival though so I might stick with pylon to be close to the one next to park farm.

I have to tell myself, at least we are there stepping foot on the promise land

Checking in with the Thursday crew.  I always go on Thursday.  Although every year on the Wednesday night I get home from work and have the "we could just leave now" discussion.  At certain point in that discussion we are definitely going to set off on the Wednesday night. 

We always leave on Thursday morning.

OK .... Thursday crew, we've nearly done Wednesday.

Clashfinder is printed and out of office done.

See you tomorrow.

Flying in tomorrow.  My very kind friends have gone on ahead with our tent and have it pitched on Bushy Ground.  Not doing a lick of work today

Is Back house only ever opened on Thursday morning? as my sister-in-law is arriving around 5am tomorrow and have a group of 15 so was thinking Back house could be a good call for them

Weds morning best. 

Then Thursday morning

then weds night

in that order.

Just finished my interview (went good, could have been better) and now on my way home. Grabbing my stuff and getting the 7pm train to Bristol. It's on!

Got a fair amount done considering but seriously grinding to a halt at work now. Still stoked for Toy Story 4 on the way home though (should take the edge off).

Manic day at the coalface but out of office is oan and there's a cold beer with my name on it.

Don't know what time it actually opens. It was definitely open by 9 last time. Always worth asking campsite crew when arriving.

[GregsyA]

Out of office on.  And I am out of office.  See you on the other side.

Yeah the Thursday posse!

The Wednesdsy crew have all opened their presents on Christmas Eve. We are the sensible ones who have the presents to open on Christmas Day!

We have all that childish excitement ahead of us....
