The weather is looking spot on.  Anyone looking at this would take it in a heartbeat.  Dry, not too hot, bit of sun over Saturday/Sunday.  Almost perfect.

Ideal.

Actually my most ideal weather happened at Reading 2014, overcast the entire weekend which meant you got a lie in and no sunburn and it didn't rain once.

Pretty nice! My phone is saying a bit of light rain Friday AM but I'd have been happy with that!

So far it’s been so dry in Pilton. Water butts and well are empty. Today we have had a sprinkle so far, no more. Not even enough to make the path wet. So the build up to now would have had perfect weather.

You're very lucky. It's absolutely pissing down here in Cheltenham (60 miles north of you) and also at the cricket in Southampton (60 miles south of you)!

Ha! Yeah booked the time off months ago when there was still hope for spending 5 days at our favourite place! Decided to take the time off anyway.

I'm hoping for a meal in a beer garden next week as well - my daughter has promised it as a father's day present. 🙂

Have a great birthday.

Been out mining (gardening) for potatoes with my grandson. It was like finding buried treasure for him.

Yes, wandering through the village last week and up by Mary’s gate it looked perfect ground conditions.  Fields looked lush and getting cut for the camping. Quiet and very peaceful.  If you need spuds I saw a few potatoes in the Co-op😉

Actually, for early potatoes, we got a good crop. Perfect new potatoes. The photo was just the first lot out the ground.

The main crop won’t be harvested for a month or two more.

Can confirm is pouring down in Glastonbury now on our caravan 

You see what happens when we leave sun drenched Glastonbury and head home!  Rain Always  sounds worse on a caravan roof!  Hope the weather improves.  I can’t go outside the house at the moment. Lovely mild evening after a sunny day but the air is thick with bloody evil nasty biting midges. I need a bee keepers suit to go to the bins.

Same here , the water butts have been empty for a while now , the liquid sunshine started at 6pm here ( not far from portishead ) . The lawns and butts are loving the rain .

i much prefer rain water over tap water , the plants seam to grow so much better on God’s version of the wet stuff than the stuff that’s been “ tweaked “ with and had chemicals added . 

Weather has been amazing here for a while. Today’s downpour is most welcome.

    • So bad honestly. I get that bad weather happens but their communication was non existent. When you're managing crowds of tens of thousands of people, it's just not good enough. I left when Massive Attack was cancelled (the first time) and it genuinely did feel unsafe trying to get out. No one knew what was going on, people still sitting in the ground when there were hoards of people trying to leave, no crowd management at all...   I've been to PS enough times to know sometimes you need to just roll with it but this was way worse than "the bar queue was 30 minutes long".    Today will be better but still feel super disappointed.

    • Solid list...  but i must ask?  are you excluding Lime Garden & Tomora as you didn't like them or is it that you havent listened to them? 
    • It was Brooklyn last year, and I seem to remember a Guinness tent
