Glast0baby Posted June 16, 2022 Report Share Posted June 16, 2022 (edited) No idea if this is an appropriate post. Please do remove if not. Just thought others might be interested to see the rapidly degenerating pinned post on reddit for "Newbie Tips". The mod does not like trolleys and is not afraid to try to force his opinion on others. Threatening to report people to their employers and all sorts! It really makes me appreciate this forum! 😁 Thanks guys for being sane and open to contrary opinions! Nb. Realised the embedded link doesn't show the comment and is huge. Soz. You'll have to follow the link to see the comment section which is the subject of my post.

august1 Posted June 16, 2022 Report Share Posted June 16, 2022 Being in a mad Wednesday morning queue with people attempting to move trollies which are unmanageable is annoying tbf. Don't mind the small nimble ones. I'd ban them from entry until after a certain times Wednesday afternoon when things have died down.

Alex DeLarge Posted June 16, 2022 Report Share Posted June 16, 2022 Reddit is just full of middle-wits arguing with half-wits. There's a bunch of posts that are just 'i've heard a rumor green day are healining????' Or 'how likely are arctic monkeys' despite the fact they're not even touring. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh I know they don't To be honest, neither do I 🤷♂️ I'd take a trolley if I was walking far. Doesn't affect me what anybody else does. I hope that they're responsible with any potential waste and ensure it gets to the recycling. Other than that I can't see why it bothers anyone. I was just playing devil's advocate, and having read the comments and seen what a c**t of the highest order he is, I wish I hadn't bothered.

To be fair we use a garden trolley and it means we have everything we need for two people in one trip, while carrying nothing on our backs Doubles up as a handy seat outside the tent as well. Makes the Wednesday morning queues a breeze. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smeble Posted June 16, 2022 Report Share Posted June 16, 2022 No worse than people who think flags or chairs should be banned. Some people just want everything they don’t like to be banned. Just the tolerant society we live in.🙄🙄 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tranquility of Solitude Posted June 16, 2022 Report Share Posted June 16, 2022 Don’t take a trolley myself, but what really made me chuckle about this was the threat to “Tell your employer”?!?! Trying to imagine that phone call....l ”Are you aware that your employee xxxxxx takes a trolley to the Glastonbury Festival”? ”Good grief! Thanks for bringing that to our attention. We don’t want those sorts working for us, we will deal with that straight away!” 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dotdash79 Posted June 16, 2022 Report Share Posted June 16, 2022 We're taking a trolley, I have a hernia and waiting for an operation, but even if I wasn't then I still would. First trip it's going to have tent, ground sheet, 2 chairs and a couple of beers, and that's it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kagey Posted June 16, 2022 Report Share Posted June 16, 2022 My employer helped pimp out my trolley and trick out its suspension and we have 2 other stealth killer nimble trolleys, and if you think you can walk as fast mine, good luck on ya you won't make the distance 🤣 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fieldrunner Posted June 16, 2022 Report Share Posted June 16, 2022 In my experience, the biggest problem is there are a lot of people that use trolleys that are clearly not fit for purpose so almost immediately break. If you've got one that will last the distance, have at it I say. Just don't expect a cheap folding aluminium trolley with tiny wheels off Amazon loaded with 5 crates of beer to last more than half a trip in.

Glast0baby Posted June 16, 2022 Author Report Share Posted June 16, 2022 I just have visions of the guy shaking his fist as trolleys pass him by. Maybe going as far as to do the British tut under his breath! I'm hoping he doesn't explode in rage at any innocent trolley-pullers at the fest, they'd be some bemused 🤣 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
