Jackomanaco Posted June 26, 2019 Report Share Posted June 26, 2019 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? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
t0paz Posted June 26, 2019 Report Share Posted June 26, 2019 Sadly, yes. It’s going to be a long day in work today! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaledonianGonzo Posted June 26, 2019 Report Share Posted June 26, 2019 Checking in, but pretty chill about it. Those dudes queuing outside the gates be like the squares who show up early at a party and have to sit around for the first couple of hours making small talk and nibbling on twiglets. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richy24 Posted June 26, 2019 Report Share Posted June 26, 2019 (edited) The best weather is starting Thursday anyway! It’s full sun or nothing for me ? Edited June 26, 2019 by richy24 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, but they get to eat twiglets at Glastonbury, not any old party! They can be in the Bimble Inn! I should get there tomorrow lunchtime, can’t wait ?

ceetee Posted June 26, 2019 Report Share Posted June 26, 2019 I turn up on Thursday by choice nowdays, no traffic, no stress, one less day drinking//camping. Wouldn't have it any other way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glasto8 Posted June 26, 2019 Report Share Posted June 26, 2019 I’ve still got another whole day at work too, it’s going to be hard to concentrate! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homer Posted June 26, 2019 Report Share Posted June 26, 2019 (edited) Big up - I’ve always gone on Thursday by choice (only did the weds in 2005). For the reasons above. I’ll be the one laughing when I’m watching Toy Story 4 in the cinema tonight ? Edited June 26, 2019 by Homer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaledonianGonzo Posted June 26, 2019 Report Share Posted June 26, 2019 Theoretically means you've still got gas in the tank to go HAM on the Sunday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buddiepaul Posted June 26, 2019 Report Share Posted June 26, 2019 Coach from Bristol for me tomorrow morning, but enjoying seeing the excitment build in thequeue threads and waiting for some action on the webcam. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geoffboycott Posted June 26, 2019 Report Share Posted June 26, 2019 Thursday crew also, cycling in from home tomorrow lunchtime, only 10 miles or so. Double edge'd sword this morning; both excited for and jealous of those going in today, but also relieved that we won't have to queue.

Exactly this. Would love to be heading off today but similarly glad to not be involved in those queues or the inevitable traffic later. Hoping the sound comes out today and sorts out any lingering mud as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

morph100 Posted June 26, 2019 Report Share Posted June 26, 2019 Thursday crew and gutted to not be in the Tuesday/Wednesday crew but still mega excited! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jackomanaco Posted June 26, 2019 Author Report Share Posted June 26, 2019 I'm a little nervous about where the remaining camping spots will be! I like to think a day off boozing today will help but I can see me making up for it tomorrow ? I'll be the one dancing like Bez at baggy Mondays Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

liame Posted June 26, 2019 Report Share Posted June 26, 2019 I’m a Thursday coach arrival. Usually arrive Wednesday afternoon/evening after the queues have died down. Gutted I won’t be doing that today but have to be thankful I’m one of the lucky ones with a ticket! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jparx Posted June 26, 2019 Report Share Posted June 26, 2019 This is traditionally the busiest time of year at work, so as I compromise I work Wednesday and head down that evening, stay in Bristol then head to G Thursday morning. Never had any issues arriving Thursday. Always had a good camping spot and you're fresh and ready to go when you arrive. Irritatingly I have a job interview at 3:30 today, which is the last thing I'll do at work before heading down. In equal parts shitting it and excited for Glastonbury. Playing havoc on my anxiety ?

crocodiles Posted June 26, 2019 Report Share Posted June 26, 2019 Thursday by choice. But being in work today is certainly not by choice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dingbat2 Posted June 26, 2019 Report Share Posted June 26, 2019 Thursday by choice, for me its about compromise with the missus and me not wanting to be away from the kids too long. Out of interest where are most of you heading? We always head to Gate A and to pylon, rivermead as most campsites seem full by Thursday afternoon. Are there any other camping sites which aren't usually full by then? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheSheriff Posted June 26, 2019 Report Share Posted June 26, 2019 First time going down on the Thursday due to a last minute work issue which I’ve gotta sort out tomorrow morning. Rest of the crew making their way down today. Although gutted, equally looking forward to a stress free drive down and an extra night in my bed.

Hugh Jass Posted June 26, 2019 Report Share Posted June 26, 2019 Thursday for me too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peroni Posted June 26, 2019 Report Share Posted June 26, 2019 Checking in. Leaving from Brighton on See Coach. Bit of a ticket mix up on T day but I have a ticket and that's what counts. Sending a recon crew in today to pitch up and we always camp west etc so feeling casual about it.... Today will drag though for sure. heading to Bton later today!
