I thought it was an Indian breakfast delicacy but you mean a bacon sandwich?

A sandwich would be bacon in bread. A bacon batch is bacon in a batch. But yeah...

First fest for 3 years so  v excited, but also concerned my old, knackered knees will have given out by end of Craig Charles on Thursday!

Working it. Temp has dropped like a stone - pack warm stuff for nights.

I was coming home tonight at about 9 and thought it seemed a tad nippy - will chuck some extra clothes in the car just in case!

Cheers for the heads up, these old bones don't like the cold.

I know! It only feels like about 1000 days since I bought the ticket.

Crew Bar shut at 11pm for some strange reason so had to come back and dig into my beer stash in the tent. See y'all tomorrow... No shifts Thur either so will come to meet if on.

Lots to be done tomorrow morning, so early is good 😉

Meet around 6pm then, am going to suggest meeting at the Westons Cider bar at the junction between Convoy Cabaret and the Woodland Walk. 

Choice of a few ciders, few ales and a cocktail bar next door plus 2 bars in the woods to nip to if required for real ales etc.

Ha. Sorry I meant card… do you take card. I’ll pop by anyway

Car loaded and just sorting last few bits then we’ll be on our way! Reckon we’ll arrive by around 11am. Very excited! 😀

[Chrisp1986]

We don't arrive to car park until 6pm. Will there be plenty camping in family left? Worried with all these early arrivals!

[PabloFitzyg]

This will be our first time at BT.
The dance tent is looking mint, although not sure these old bones can keep up.
I’m pretty sure I watched Eat Static at my first Glasto in 95.

With the right eyes I could be back in a Megadog 🥹

Happy with that - lots of room too.

Bit of a nightmare so far, left Bournemouth at 08.30, broke down at about 10.00, had to join AA they turnrd up at 12.00 but couldnt fix it so had to upgrade to recovery member and unfortunately as i was not an existing member they charge £4.00 a mile after the first 15 and i was about 80 miles from home. Now back in Bournemouth and borrowing a mates car and driving up first thing tomorrow about £500 lighter before any repairs needed on the car☹

Hope the rain stays away for those there today… some forecasts have it over the next few hours

[Pinhead]

Few spots otherwise as dry as an Arizona hoe down...
