westholtschic Posted July 5, 2021 Report Share Posted July 5, 2021 When you are there please make sure you visit the Festival Medical Services first aid tent and say hello. We are there for all the 6 weeks volunteering. Hopefully there will be no injuries or illness 😁 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not camping but over the weekend persuaded a friend with a camper van (who's never been to Glasto) to book that weekend. We'll probably pop over one day to see him and point out what he's missing 🙂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Train down and camping near the Tor on Monday and then to the Farm Tuesday. Got a stack of leave banked and committed for full stint. Hoping to do a lot of walking and exploring when not on shift. Just cant wait to be somewhere other than the North West for a week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd even jumped the train down with you too for company! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd even jumped the train down with you too for company! I hear you. Its one of the pluses about being an old(er) person as the children are no longer requiring my undivided attentions. I never lose sight of the fact that others cannot commit so easily. I will get you a badge and a hat 🙂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pipine Posted July 6, 2021 Report Share Posted July 6, 2021 Water aid are still looking for volunteers and asking if existing ones could do another week. I’m doing 3rd-9th august and would definitely do another week if I could wrangle it.. Surprised they aren’t oversubscribed given the priority status for glasto 2022 that you get from volunteering at worthy pastures (Plus a week on the farm is going to be amazing anyway).

BrizzleRob Posted July 6, 2021 Report Share Posted July 6, 2021 Apologies if this has been asked before but couldn't find anything on Google. Any indication as to how long the bar area will go on for in the evenings and any more info around that? I know it's a very family-friendly place - just debating whether to go to this with my girlfriend. We're local anyway so not too fussed about the local attractions, and just wanted to try to gauge what the atmosphere might be like in the evenings. The days at least sound perfect - if we get nice weather it could be beautiful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last orders are 10pm (I think they said before) but they can only sell until 10pm anyway. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its near wooky hole and there's a camp site at the moment bottom of the hill with a pub right opposite. I've just Google mapped it and it looks like the campsite is a car park now... But still worth a day out it's one amazing place on a nice day.. Didn't realise the campsite had closed down. We used to camp there on the day before the gates open. From there through the back country lanes it used to bring you out right opposite the carparks entrance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We used to camp on a site just outside Cheddar but seems it’s been turned into one of those static only sites. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
