Marked myself working from home tomorrow so that I can have the ultimate set up ready. Bit of an overkill as I'd be home two hours before sales time normally, but you never know.

I’ve taken the week off 😂

That's dedication!

Looking at Eurostar tickets 🙂 A bit disappointed with the amount of Direct Netherlands to London trains after they made such a thing about this last year... 

[EFC1996]

Booked holidays in work

[Crazyfool01]

Best start some serious fancy dress now … need some ideas though … see you all on the farm … a helicopter arcadia hat will be done after Sundays sale 

[moogster]

OK who here already booked all the decent hotels around the 02? 😜 I mean there's a yacht available at 3000 pounds but...

I'm thinking getting something around Bermondsey so that I can do some taprooms the night before...

[Crazyfool01]

Just put a fence up around the garden so I feel at home 

[CiaranMc]

Booked flights to Bristol today!

[amfy]

Got tickets for Pulp in Scarborough so I won’t have to worry about my Glastonbury Oxfam shifts clashing!

[moogster]

Hotel booked for the night before the bus. Impressive how prices have gone up since last time I was in London just before Covid fully hit...

Hotels near the o2 get crazy expensive. It has gone up a lot i keep hearing (live close so never get a london hotel) but not to the same extent o2 hotels will for glasto

Booked hotel and carparking in Bristol so we'll be refreshed and ready for the coach! First time as a punter since 2017, still can't quite believe it. Just need to get some mates there tomorrow!

[Dreamingofsunnydays]

Bought 4 tickets 😁

[dotdash79]

booked and had my leave approved

[CaledonianGonzo]

Transport logistics commenced.

[WhatADin]

Tentatively secured a camper van to borrow for the week.

So this was proper keen but maybe how I manifested my tickets! 🤣

Booked a hotel for the Monday night in Glastonbury so I can visit the town and and the Tor with the kids before the festival. Today I've confirmed with them that I'll be able to park my caravan in the car park over night so I'll only be 12mins round the corner on Tuesday morning ready to get in!! (Even though I haven't got my caravan ticket yet!) 

Really hoping the campervan ticket sales are not as brutal as the main ticket sale! 🤞🏼

got a new car to make the drive down a lot more comfortable! (from small hatchback to SUV type thing, surprisingly loads more frugal on fuel too) 

[gigpusher]

Dog sitter booked, leave booked. Spending endless hours speculating on who will and won't be playing where regardless of whether I even care. Yep fair to say getting tickets on Sunday and having my last little lull at work for a long time means it's all being spent Glastobating. 

Watching Tiny Desk Concerts as well they are always good for finding acts you want to play.

Trying to recover from the shock at some of the stuff I've discovered today.

Need to get it out of my mind before June.

I really hope this is in reference to the industry plant talk in the headliners thread

edit: if not, hope all is well 🙂

No it's in reference to the ludicrous prices and insane luxury of the offsite glamping.

A lot of the people staying there will be performers or celebrities. Yer Lars Ulrichs and Bradley Coopers and so on.

No need to stay there though. On site was good enough for Joe Strummer and is still good enough for Jarvis.

keeping them off site gives more room onsite though .... more then happy for them to keep  the locals happy by paying these huge fees and me being able to move between tents
