I recall him walking past me, repeatedly shouting words to the effect of “if there are any undercover police officers or security guards, please stay away from me. I am not carrying any suspicious substances or items. Thank you” (can’t remember the exact quote, really hope someone recalls) When I walked past he was just getting taken to the ground by the police and was screaming "Someone call the police I'm being assaulted!"

waltere Posted July 4, 2019 Report Share Posted July 4, 2019 In what I'm pretty sure was BEAM in the Greenpeace Fields (the wooden ring thing with bee projections all over it) late Wednesday night/early Thursday morning when a seriously off his chump bloke wandered in, only to immediately turn and gtfo of there whilst shouting, in one of the broadest scouse accents I've ever heard: "Seriously, SWERVE IT!" -- Came across a bloke dressed as Noah (fake beard, robes, crook) by the toilets at the back of the Other Field during Dave. When I noticed his lack of shoes and the subsequent state of his feet I asked how he was managing without wearing shoes. He looked at me as if I was asking the stupidest question in the world and said completely deadpan and totally seriously: "Noah doesn't wear shoes." -- Fairly certain when walking across Bella's Bridge at one point I overheard someone claiming to be selling Women's World Cup final tickets. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, I missed them, got distracted - watched Broken Bones Matilda and Jurassic 5, Yamaya (I think anyway!) and some of Flamingods! I really liked Broken Bones Matilda though, great duo!

Control Shift Delete Posted July 4, 2019 Report Share Posted July 4, 2019 (edited) Whilst admiring the subtlety of our friendly Liverpudlian police dodger as he raged about the necessity for the cops to stay away from him, a group of scouse girls walked past me and one said “see, it’s fu**ing nobheads like him who give us a bad reputation”.

Dziekanowski Posted July 4, 2019 Report Share Posted July 4, 2019 "you see that big bollard on the hill over there? That's a really good reference point to get you back to your tent when you're off your tits at 6 in the morning" Reducing the proud history of Glastonbury Tor to a compass for the smashed in one short sentence.

MrZigster Posted July 4, 2019 Report Share Posted July 4, 2019 From an (I'd guess at) mid thirties woman (i.e. not a child): "There's seagulls here! Why are there seagulls here? We're nowhere near the sea." Wrong on at least a couple of levels. And, where in the UK don't you get gulls? I want to retire there. They're a 'kin pest 'round our way. Made me giggle anyway.

Doug85 Posted July 5, 2019 Report Share Posted July 5, 2019 Saturday night on my way through Big Ground back to Tom's field a young bloke asked me "excuse me mate where is the pyramid stage i need to catch Stormzy" I pointed at the big stage in front of him and politely reminded him that it was saturday night and Stormzy played "last night" His response: "fuck I need to quit drugs" Whilst walking away shouting at himself for missing 2 days of Glastonbury. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ha I was in there for that, I was the very wobbly guy to the left wearing a pale tie-dye sort of shirt. That was the only time I managed to catch them the whole weekend and it blew me away, top three set of the weekend. Can't believe they were wearing gillie suits and not sweating out in there.
