sime Posted June 27, 2021 Report Share Posted June 27, 2021 Looks like, from the BBC anyways, that it'd have been a rainy afternoon/evening at the festival today. Would still rather be there in rain than not at all though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sime Posted June 27, 2021 Report Share Posted June 27, 2021 Currently pissing it down where I am. Looks like Pilton is getting away with it for now. BBC has partial rain there today although still predicting Thunder and rain for Monday morning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deebeedoobee Posted June 27, 2021 Report Share Posted June 27, 2021 So as the last bands are watched, the last hugs are given, it’s one last night before the long journey home. Memories made to last another year. today would have been another perfect day weather wise. Overcast but warm. It threatened to drizzle around 4pm but it didn’t get going. Now we have a breeze and cloudy but bright skies. whether it rains tonight matters not . Tents can be cleaned, wellies deployed and hair dried. one last task of the weekend………donate to Oxfam via @Superscally charity page. The man is less than 20 miles from Worthy farm…having run around 300km in 3 days…..let’s give him a virtual shoulder to lean on, the boost he needs to make it to Pilton…..you can do that here, it’s very simples: https://uk.virginmoneygiving.com/goingthedistancerun/3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Nal Posted June 27, 2021 Report Share Posted June 27, 2021 Really doesnt bode well for next year does it? 2017 great, 2019 great, 2020 great, 2021 great. Law of averages and all...... Everyone should be really really worried about net year. Start panicking now is my advice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suprefan Posted June 27, 2021 Report Share Posted June 27, 2021 Wouldnt be too against rain at the end of Sunday. Not a high chance of really making mud if the ground had been packed down the last 5 days by everyone. Leaving will be possibly miserable but its better than arriving to a storm.

deebeedoobee Posted June 28, 2021 Report Share Posted June 28, 2021 (edited) I won’t sugar coat it…it’s wet. The fukt-ometer is showing 70ml of Rain overnight. The tracks are big puddles and most likely would have been mud if 200,000 people were trampling on them. titty Buddha is miffed. Yeah his smile is still there but you can see it in his eyes, he’s seething. The P.I.S.S are in the deep end and it’s not looking good for them. They have manned the life rafts. the well is damp but then that will take a few days of rainfall to show anything of worth. But all this would have been worth it for 5 days of bliss. We will party again in the fields next year and it will be “the best year ever”. I have a Scally to feed and set on his merry way, thankfully by motorised transport so until next time……… Edited June 28, 2021 by deebeedoobee 6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
