stuartbert two hats Posted July 1, 2019 Report Share Posted July 1, 2019 After a grueling 2 hours sleep, quick pack up and dash from Paines to Gate A, I was kettled for 30 minutes and eventually got on a coach back to Manchester. I'll be home in time for tea! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KHazza Posted July 1, 2019 Report Share Posted July 1, 2019 Anyone know how the Castle Cary route is looking? I’m dreading the return as inbound was so mad! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just posted in a different thread, it took a whule to get moving but once it did it was rapid, only queued for about 70 minutes. There's no queue for the London bound side of the station, Bristol had a fair few queueing but I assume that that was just keeping those guys off of the same platform as the London train until it had departed. Lots of bags on seats. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tranquility of Solitude Posted July 1, 2019 Report Share Posted July 1, 2019 Best ever for me. At gate A for 7:45 NE Edinburgh coach was waiting, left bang on 8am, already.... Actually I have no clue. Somewhere in an English motorway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blutarsky Posted July 1, 2019 Report Share Posted July 1, 2019 East car parks gridlock atm. Not moved in 25 minutes, engines off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thunderstruck Posted July 1, 2019 Report Share Posted July 1, 2019 (edited) On the see tickets coach. The organisation is so poor. I’m pretty sure I wouldn’t be able to get on my allocated coach if I simply turned up at the right time...they just load people on and don’t give a shit what coaches people are booked on to. They don’t even check tickets. If anyone wants a free coach home just turn up! Edited July 1, 2019 by Thunderstruck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flysheet Posted July 1, 2019 Report Share Posted July 1, 2019 Paid for WV for a reason. Up and out for 7, breakfast in Brizzle before 9 and just passing Stoke on our way up to the hills of Saddleworth with the inevitable comedown already kicking in.

sprocketrocket Posted July 1, 2019 Report Share Posted July 1, 2019 Left west carparks about 0915 and pretty much drove straight off.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tinofsild Posted July 1, 2019 Report Share Posted July 1, 2019 Sat up in South Park 2. Getting stuck into some of my remaining cider too (I’m not driving) We’re going to leave it a few hours before we leave, then visit a local pub for lunch on the way back to Reading. Doing it this way seems to cushion the blow of the end of the festival for us. Come back down to earth softly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gherkin8r Posted July 1, 2019 Report Share Posted July 1, 2019 National weather cypress bus to Bristol airport was 2 hours late leaving. Not ideal but not disastrous as we had left plenty of time for delays. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buddiepaul Posted July 1, 2019 Report Share Posted July 1, 2019 I left site at 3 this morning and was home at 5. I was going to stay later, but decided to make the most of the fact I was quite awake and alert to get away, though it was a wrench to leave. Totally crashed and just got up again, though now there is a buzzing in my head. It's weird sitting on a sofa again though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Digi Posted July 1, 2019 Report Share Posted July 1, 2019 Already home in Wakefield, bathed and pyjamaficated! ? Set off around 6.15 via a stop at McDonald's for 30 mins or so. Roads totally clear all the way home and home just after 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reckon we could have just left two hours ago instead of sitting around waiting for our ‘allotted’ time! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
