we were offered this service by some funky cool fams that dont N tend 2 camp out N the wet ....

kinda xpensive but when U break down the cost per person its well worth it N U dont have 2 worry about driving so U can have a few beers N chill out with the funky ppl..

Thanks! Most of that stuff is pretty common knowledge though, I've been to Glastonbury a few times.

It mostly doesn't apply to me in this situation though. My stepsister lives in Tunbridge Wells so I'm staying with her on Saturday and Sunday nights and they'll drop me off and pick me up from the festival

I'm literally JUST wondering about clothes. Chances are I'll just take a bigger bag to my sisters place on Saturday, with a few options. Then when I wake up early Sunday afternoon, I'll play it by ear depending on what the weather looks like, then mosey on down to the festival site.

And I realized I don't even have any wellies lol. So fuck it, I'm not buying more. I'll take a couple plastic bags and some duct tape if I need to LOL.

how did the conversation go? i seen the prices 4 individual tickets down 2 £50 now there back up 2 £70..i was gny complain..but didnt think id get any joy??

If your camping the weekend then car park will be no problem, but if it's the same as last year you will have problems turning up on sunday, also the roads are pretty bad and narrow, you cant park on any roads around the place.

I'm only going on the sunday this year, so im thinking of walking from the train station. It about a mile and a half walk.

mile and a half? i'm not fucking one of the proclaimers

U better no b fukin wan ahe the proclaimers m8, thatl be the last time a go tae a hotel in manchester wae u again, lol let me know how yer travels go on friday..av got ma tent..am turning up wae ma shorts, t shirt, jacket n am jammin.a ended up gettin some walkin boots just coz am no wearin ma good shit doon there if it starts pissin doon, plus the other option of wellies is piss if its blazin wae sunshine, al prob b marchin the mile n hof fae train station but fuck it..bring it on:D

if it's gonna b this fucking hot i'm gonna just wear ma vest and pants like when i forgot my gym gear at school. if it starts pissing doon it'll b like having a shower and it will disguise me having a piss on the floor. i'm gonna wear black gym shoes or i'll look a right arse in ma pants and vest

My missus and I live 30mins drive away so we're gonna take a drive down this evening (provided we get the car back from the garage!) to scope things out....site set-up, nearby places to park, etc. I'll report back tomorrow if I find out anything good.

On the day I'll be wearing my Veni, Vidi, Funki t-shirt that a bunch of us Orgers had made and wore for the final night of the O2 stint...if you see me, say hi!

I suggest buying some adult nappies, then you don't have to fight your way to the toilets, just wee where you are

no, just normal pants. they will be pissed pants by the end though

Ahoy there siblings!

Just got round to getting my ticket (sold out! like, finally, jeez).

Might be screwed on the way back though - I'm in Guildford, and the Big Green Coach won't leave Kent 'till 11:30 - if Prince is on time. Yeah, exactly.

Last train from Waterloo is 00:50.

Is anyone coming from Guildford, perchance? Need some petrol money? eh?

YUK!!!! THATS SOOOOOOOOOO SICK!!!!!

its good manners 2 go 2 the proper toilet facilites...all because ur afraid of loss of place N crowd.

i was wondering why there was a bad smell near me at 02 shows N the puddles around the arena.....i always thought ppl that cant go 2 toilet during a gig N case they miss a song have a problem.....

consider all us other fams who dont want 2 b accidentally getting SOFT N WET....

i think i have lost my appitite now......YUKKKK

Anyone camping sunday?.....I'm thinking Pimms party after the aftershow?!

Hello,

Could anyone here help a sista out? I’m gonna be there SAT & SUN but don’t have camping passes! could somebody genuine offer me a little space, PLZ? xx

[Edited 6/30/11 12:51pm]

Ok....just got back from the Hop Farm. Easy for me and the missus to get to as we're heading in from the east, so lots of lovely country lanes to zip along to get there. Lots of signs on the way so you won't get lost. Hop Farm is in the heart of Kent and it really is beautiful countryside round there!

Site looks awesome, though we couldnt actually get in there. What we did see was part of the main stage which looks great, and two massive tents/arenas (typical festival looking ones, rather like circus big tops!). Car parking looks fairly ample, though we only saw one entrance in...hope there are more on the day! Some revellers turning up on buses already with their camping gear so looks like the party is getting started tonight already. Lots of helpful staff around and we chatted to some of them. Big buzz around Prince, lots of people surprised he chose to play here!

Didnt manage to get many photos, but will try and upload a couple....
