katiepougher Posted July 1, 2019 Report Share Posted July 1, 2019 East sounds awful, we left about 8.30 (from E20 CV field) and had a short queue but nothing too bad and there are plenty of stewards around at that time. We've always tried to get up and our early after spending about 8 hours in a queue in one of the East car parks in 2000. Hope you're all moving soon!

HeyPorter Posted July 1, 2019 Report Share Posted July 1, 2019 In E19 and haven’t even joined the queue yet, no movement in it and am happy to stay out of it for now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D-Low Posted July 1, 2019 Report Share Posted July 1, 2019 Sounds horrific for Caravan's and campervans. Pink car park - left at 8.30 and no queues. Really good traffic management this year from all the side joining roads to leave the fields. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yosoyyoberdi Posted July 1, 2019 Report Share Posted July 1, 2019 We've been queueing 2 hours for the shuttle to Castle Cary, still not made it. Any news from the station? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peroni Posted July 1, 2019 Report Share Posted July 1, 2019 Left pink West 54 at 7:15. By 10.30 arrived at fleet (M3) for a maccy Ds Fairly painfree exit. I've done my time in a 7hr Q in 2015 so thankful! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H.M.V Posted July 1, 2019 Report Share Posted July 1, 2019 Made it to east 14 now. Slow movement. Absolute bellend came along and cut us up in the queue. Threatening to run over the stewards so he's been made to reverse and let us out. Fucking shit that you have that level of self entitlement when people have flights to catch and kids in the queues.

deadpheasant Posted July 1, 2019 Report Share Posted July 1, 2019 Took the Worthy View shuttle, queued around 10:30 and got on the shuttle abt 12:40. That was the worst of it. Queue size at the station was fine. Now on the train, got on abt 2pm ish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spindles Posted July 1, 2019 Report Share Posted July 1, 2019 Got up at 9 for a cuppa and a smoke, packed tent up at 10, had the car packed by 10:45 and straight out of yellow car parks onto clear roads (back route) and back in the midlands for 2. Easiest journey offsite ever for me. Couldn't fault it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeyPorter Posted July 1, 2019 Report Share Posted July 1, 2019 (edited) Are the CV queues normally this bad to get out of? For some reason had it in me head that I should give it till noon then could roll out. Edited July 1, 2019 by HeyPorter Looked silly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still waiting to get out but on the lanes now in stop start. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carlosj Posted July 1, 2019 Report Share Posted July 1, 2019 It's been easy in the past, about an hour to get out, from 8am ish. No idea on why it's like this at this time though,even with all the traffic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bixer Posted July 1, 2019 Report Share Posted July 1, 2019 Got into the shuttle queues about 6:30 but I wasn’t actually stepping onto Castle Cary platform until about 9:15. Not as bad as I’m sure it was for some, but in future I think I’ll probably just commit to getting up even earlier, even if that means trying to join the queue at 4am. It’s excruciating having to stand still for so long when you’re just gagging for a leisurely shit and a bath. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Acid Loafers Posted July 1, 2019 Report Share Posted July 1, 2019 Had National Express booked for 11:00, think we left at about 11:20. Even got a goody bag with snacks and drinks which made my hungover morning. (Is this a usual thing?) Just arriving at Victoria at 15:30. Next up, the tube. Then home.

discgoesmic Posted July 1, 2019 Report Share Posted July 1, 2019 Up at 4:15am to pack final bits, caught the See coach to Bath at 5:45, back in Bath by 6:30. Home and back in bed by 7:15. Very easy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yosoyyoberdi Posted July 1, 2019 Report Share Posted July 1, 2019 Our shuttle has been stopped on a field as castle Cary cannot take more people. Rumours that there may not be enough trains Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We got from where we were camped and into the queue at 12.55 in east 18. Took about half an hour to get into the queue cos no one would let us in so had to get out of the car and wave himself in. Lot's of people getting trying to cut the queue and drive to the front. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
