What was your running order?

One of many of the most incredible things that crossed my mind one night about Glastonbury is how thousands of people can converge on one site, and yet have entirely different weekends from one another, but still almost all have the most incredible time imaginable. With all these threads about best sets / flops etc, how did your running order end up over the weekend, and was it close / far from what you had planned on Clashfinders etc? I'll kick off with my condensed weekend: 

Wednesday: General bimble, up to the fireworks at The Park, wander round the SE Corner 

Thursday: Bar crawl across the site for our friend's birthday, followed by the night in the SE Corner, mainly Block 9, plus New York Brass Band in Shangri-La.

Friday: Pip Blom (JPT) > Mo (OS) > The Wombats (OS) > Sundara Karma (WG) > Haelos (WG) > Two Door Cinema Club (OS) > Tame Impala (OS) > Mystery Jets (RH) > Wormhole and up the Ribbon Tower.

Saturday: The Proclaimers (PS) > Maggie Rogers (OS) > Lewis Capaldi (OS) > Sigrid (OS) > Liam Gallagher (PS) > Hot Chip (Park) > Tried to get into Glade, too busy so danced the night away at The Brother's Bar (Parma Violet's cider is dangerously tasty).

Sunday: Jeff Goldblum (WH) > Dermot Kennedy (JPT) > Kylie (PS) > Miley (PS) > Friendly Fires (JPT) > Christine and the Queens (OS) > One final bimble around the site before taking in the views from our camp in Big Ground.

Spent considerably more time at the Other Stage than 2017, and more than I expected. Only four major must sees before the fest were Hot Chip, Haelos, Friendly Fires and Christine and the Queens, all of whom were fantastic. Special mentions to Dermot Kennedy, Mystery Jets and Maggie Rogers all of which were great! All in all a stellar weekend, how did your running orders look?

I thought I saw a lot less than usual this year because of the heat and bigger than usual crowds

Friday was Lewis Capaldi, The Wombats, King Princess then Fatboy Slim. Lots of wandering round for drink stops and shade in various bars in between plus a long snooze up at the pier ‘beach’

Saturday - Fantastic Negrito, Maggie Rogers, Slowthai, Lizzo, Sigrid, The Killers and a bit of Chem Bros

Sunday - Slaves, Babymetal, Kylie, Loyle Carner, Billie Eilish, Little Simz, Janelle Monae

How brilliant were Haelos ? Smallish crowd really which surprised me. They were on the Other Stage a few years back early morning and they were great then.  Thought their appeal would have spread a bit more 

Absolutely magnificent, third time I've seen them now and they get better and better. Seemed to me like most of the crowd at first were there on a whim / a way of ducking in for some shade and they'd won them round and got most people dancing and cheering within about 3 tracks of starting.

Completely forgot about catching Josephine and the Artizans! A thoroughly unusual yet weirdly enjoyable mix of styles - I still don't know what to make of it.

I really loved it. One of my friends is a big opera fan so definitely going to recommend them to her.
