moogster Posted June 28, 2022 Report Share Posted June 28, 2022 Here's where you share the random acts of kindness you witnessed, or just people being awesome. Mine's a but unusual: I'd like to thank the blonde lady next to me at First Aid Kit for singing along. Lady, on top of knowing all the words, your voice was brilliant and perfectly harmonized with FAK. I never thought in my life I'd enjoy someone singing along that much.

Billy Corgans hair Posted June 28, 2022 Report Share Posted June 28, 2022 The group of 4-5 early 20s girls all bawling they're eyes out to let it be. The random lady who invited me into the Ukrainian dance circle during Go_A Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PassingCloud Posted June 28, 2022 Report Share Posted June 28, 2022 Mine was the kind man who let me borrow a rug, and later a chair, for my son as he slept though almost of the Paul McCartney set. I’d also like to thank myself for giving up my jacket and freezing my knackers off. Thank you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay Pee Posted June 28, 2022 Report Share Posted June 28, 2022 The two blokes who stopped and checked i was ok when I took a pretty spectacular tumble on the walkway between Silver Heys and the Other Stage. I really went flying! If you read this, thanks. Got some cracking bruising as a reminder Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alvoram Posted June 28, 2022 Report Share Posted June 28, 2022 The group of youngsters who persuaded us to stick around for Elvano, it was a cracking show and we had fun with you guys (even if you did keep mocking us for being 'old' you little whippersnappers 😛) Sorry you never did get Green Day 😕 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazyfool01 Posted June 28, 2022 Report Share Posted June 28, 2022 I had a hypo ( low blood sugar ) at Arcadia one evening and had run out of glucose tabs ... the low blood sugar causes confusion but someone stepped in and asked his group if they had any sweets ... they didnt but he found someone who did ..... could possibly have saved my life ... so the guy from manchester I think .... thanks so much Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kemosabe Posted June 28, 2022 Report Share Posted June 28, 2022 I was pretty gone going into Foals and lost my mates, the people around me were absolutely amazing despite me being an annoyingly talkative stranger. Had a right laugh with them all and everyone was having a proper party. After the set this group of ladies (I think they were off-duty stewards) allowed me to tag along with them to Arcadia then to see Girls Don't Sync in Silver Hayes. Had the best evening of the festival, and they were genuinely all so so lovely. Cheers team, especially to Nat and Rachel (sorry if I have those names wrong!).

Levitz Posted June 28, 2022 Report Share Posted June 28, 2022 The woman who advised my to fold my plate to eat a vegan chocolate crepe at the Park when there were no forks and it was piping hot. Top tip. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

giantkatestacks Posted June 28, 2022 Report Share Posted June 28, 2022 The man sat at the top of the Pyramid who finished his vodka jelly and then put the pot into his bag to take away. It meant I didnt have to attempt to pick up the crushed shards the next morning at 6am! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larraht Posted June 28, 2022 Report Share Posted June 28, 2022 To the chap who camped near us - you asked if we could boil you some water for a coffee and stayed for a natter with us. You noticed we were running low on water and by the time we had returned to our tent there was a water carrier filled for us just inside. Cheers Bo. To the drunk teacher that shared his rum with me and kept wanted to put me on your shoulders at Sugababes - thanks for the laughs! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This could genuinely have been me, although I wasn't sat so maybe not 🙂 And it was more like 9 vodka jellies each night between us 🙈😂 As a side note, was good to see the jellies were being served in vegware 🙂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ones I picked up all weekend seemed to be in the usual non recycle plastic - are you saying that was compostable cos if so I have put hundreds in the wrong colour bag... 😁 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimmillen Posted June 28, 2022 Report Share Posted June 28, 2022 Glade Dome, 1 am ish Monday morning, having one last rave… Go to check something on my phone - oh hell, it’s not in my pocket. Not surprising tbh, I had been going for it a bit. 😂 Frantically start checking the ground around me - next thing I’m getting a tap on the shoulder, big smile & the phone handed back. Thank you whoever you were! 👏 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They say it on them if you know what to look for but they do look very similar to normal plastic, so an easy mistake to make. At least if they end up in landfill they degrade and won't harm the oceans. They make pint pots and other food containers like this too, so look out for that if helping out elsewhere in the future. The bigger items tend to have a green pattern on them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PedroPete Posted June 28, 2022 Report Share Posted June 28, 2022 Big thanks to all the folk around us during Elvana set on Truth stage who all pitched in to help when my other half lost her mobile phone in the crowd, true Glasto spirit!

sinhala Posted June 28, 2022 Report Share Posted June 28, 2022 I would like to thank the off-duty nurse from Liverpool (she was actually volunteering for Water Aid) who gave me 2x paracetemol & advice in the acoustic bar when I was suffering with heat exhaustion on Sunday.

FuzzyDunlop Posted June 28, 2022 Report Share Posted June 28, 2022 Someone in the woods on Wednesday asked me if I was ok. I dumped a load of Cold water into my bucket hat & put it on my head. "You'll be ok, it's cooler tomorrow" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aragorn Posted June 28, 2022 Report Share Posted June 28, 2022 I posted a thread about this at the time but I KO'd somewhere near Gate A Thursday night and 2 girls fetched the stewards rather quickly. The stewards took me to medical and then off to Bath Hospital. Was not booze or narcotic related and I was just thankful those 2 girls got me help. The stewards were amazing and the 2 NHS dudes that whizzed me off to Bath were top drawer too. Really took time to make sure I was alright even at the hospital when I was saying get yourselves off now after alot of thank you's they stayed to make sure I was ok and looked after.

Filthy Posted June 28, 2022 Report Share Posted June 28, 2022 On my way in on Wednesday morning about 10am our cart fell on its side. Me and my mate righted it and I rolled a fag and we got going again. I overheard someone behind say a a wallet had been found behind us. Checked my pockets and realised it wasn't there and probably came out when I got my baccy out. Ran back and asked if anyone had found a wallet and a lovely couple asked my name and gave it back to me. Even had my ticket in it. Absolute legends and wouldn't take any cash as a thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beerqueen Posted June 28, 2022 Report Share Posted June 28, 2022 Just everyone who put up with me randomly talking to them in crowds. I was mostly on my own and am a bit of a talker so will take the ear off anyone who will listen! And the group of 5 young, tall men who let me go in front of them to be on the second barrier for Macca (and Noel G). Not only for letting me lean and see but also chatting so that the time passed in a flash without it seeming an age! Even though I was probably the age of your mums!
