Hi guys bit of off topic here 

My mate got his ticket on the resale. The tickets were posted on 17th June by royal mail (by the person who received them from Glastonbury) which is meant to be 1-3 days. He called royal mail and they said it's delayed and won't be considered lost until the 29th June. Any ideas what he should do?

 

Did he not post them on Special Delivery so it's tracked?

I've been obsessing over this thread for days. Learned a lot about forecasts, pressure and fingers. I can pretty much say with absolutely confidence how the weather is going to turn out.

 

It's going to be sunny some times but not all of the time. Wind will exist as will some clouds that may or may not be there all day. It's going to probably rain but maybe not. If the rain does come which it maybe might not it probably is going to either be a little or a lot. It's going to be warm for a bit and cold for a bit, sometimes hot potentially too hot but also could be cool at times. You're going to be wet from sweat and wet from rain at the same time, leave the wellies at home but make sure you pack your wellies. Take time to find shade from the clouds too and remember your suncream which you won't need but you might.

 

Hope that helps.

 
Nailed it. But don’t forget about those overnight temperatures which may be too hot to sleep comfortably or too cold so you need an extra blanket. Or both. Or neither.

Really is looking good isn't it!

 

Surely with it just days away that's somewhere close to what were getting.

Confidence in the forecast decreases the further the range.  So for Wednesday/ Thursday there's a decent chance. But for next Sunday / Monday it's still too far away

Met Office looks awesome... 

 

Caveat..

 

The met office have been awful lately since they been messing with new data. Like total opposites in real time... saying its sunny when I'm sat in the rain

 

Even now it's saying sunny intervals where I am but there's not been a cloud in sight for hours... small difference I know but still wrong haha

I swore by MO until recently but it's been a bit inconsistent for me. Said risk of ylight rain was a couple of hrs away yesterday when I was looking out at a biblical deluge. 

 

As appreciative as I am of all the effort folk have gone to monitoring this, I wish I'd never discovered this thread😂. I was preaching que sera, rain or shine it'll be great, no point looking until Tues........now I am looking in every hour and am paranoid about any forecast now😃

Soon as you get onsite you’ll forget it and deal with what’s overhead anyway … maybe the odd convo at campsite but nothing too intense

Yeah it's always been very reliable for until this year it's gone nuts. My mate ran the bob Graham run in the lakes which takes a lot of planning and accurate weather. He used and swore by MO but recently it's all over the place

    • Not necessarily but it should be, Download have a habit of messing it uo when others get the bookings on point. Good Charlotte I doubt are playing 3rd down and that too 3 that day while dreamy is too strong. I think you'd have one another day to help sell weekend tickets. I also doubt Papa Roach play. 
    • Here's a bit of a wild stab, few placings may be off, and for all I know half of these won't actually be touring next year, but screw it, it's a bit of fun   Pyramid: Sabrina Carpenter, Phoebe Bridgers, TBA (Florence + The Machine), Garbage, The Last Dinner Party, Interpol, Alex James Britpop Classical Other: Chase & Status, Teddy Swims, Clairo, The Kooks, Zara Larsson, Kingfishr, Sports Team, Orbital West Holts: Robyn, Baby Keem, De La Soul, Deltron 3030, JID, Dua Saleh, kwn, Daniela Latila Woodsies: Bonobo, Darkside, TBA (Tame Impala), Laufey, Warmduscher, Wednesday, The Lottery Winners, The Royston Club, Florence Road Park: Patti Smith, Super Furry Animals, Slayyyter, The Cardigans, Skye Newman, Kelly Lee Owens, Teen Jesus & The Jean Teasers   Pyramid: Harry Styles, The xx, Richard Ashcroft, The Pogues, Jessie J, Sigrid, Travis Other: Rosalia, Sombr, Mitski, Alex Warren, Holly Humberstone, Cat Burns, Pale Waves, Yard Act West Holts: Basement Jaxx, Elyanna, Clipse, L’Imperatrice, Nation of Language, Jim Legxacy, Yazmin Lacey, RIP Magic Woodsies: Suede, Chvrches, Bleachers, MUNA, The Cribs, Keo, Bleech 9:3, The Lilacs Park: MARINA, Magdalena Bay, Jacob Alon, TBA (Lily Allen performs West End Girl), Getdown Services, Isaac Wood, Snail Mail, Madra Salach Pyramid: Sam Fender, Hozier, David Byrne, Cher, Obongjayar, David Gray, Billy Ocean Other: Doja Cat, Deftones, Addison Rae, Ren, Viagra Boys, Maisie Peters, The Reytons, Hard Life West Holts: Kano, Thievery Corporation, Angine De Poitrine, Thee Sacred Souls, Brooke Combe, Sasha Keable, Master Peace Woodsies: The Wombats, Metronomy, Geese*, Dry Cleaning, EsDeeKid, Sienna Spiro, Cowboy Hunters, Radio Free Alice Park: Big Thief, Laura Marling, MJ Lenderman, Richard Dawson, Oklou, Maruja, Dead Dads Club, Ratboys   *There's always one band booked for Woodsies that ends up being massively under-billed and gets shut down really early. They'd be better off playing somewhere like Other sub, but I could see the G getting them to play a smaller stage while it's still possible
    • Another Kraftwerk one for me today, as just back from seeing them.    
    • Completed my 2026 survey. Put down Super Furry Animals as my most wanted for next year but suspect the moment has gone for that. Popped a big shopping list in the box for who else you would like to see. 🙂
