timespeedsup Posted April 13, 2012 Report Share Posted April 13, 2012 do Efests do a meet up at BT? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnnaGrant Posted April 13, 2012 Report Share Posted April 13, 2012 A lot of us camp together, at the all-welcome newly 8 foot high red and yellow Northumberland Flag (pic please techies?) We did try a meet up at a bar a couple of years ago but most people couldn't be bothered to shift from camp. Should we try again, or will everyone find the flag? (Some people found it in the dark last year) May as well be. Hope you're doing good Mick. Organise it! Those that want will join in. Tall obvious flags are not always found in fairness (seriously).

timespeedsup Posted April 13, 2012 Report Share Posted April 13, 2012 I had to help someone find efest camp in Glasto last year. They had a nearby Chinese Food Tent, but had found the wrong one that's fifteen minutes away. So it's clear flags can be missed. That said, at 80m that flag above shouldn't be too missable. So long as it's put up sharpish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rabid Posted April 13, 2012 Report Share Posted April 13, 2012 Yes, obvious flags are not always that obvious. I never found the efests camp in Pennards at Glastonbury last year, when we passed by from the rural outskirts of Bailey's Field where we camped. Incidently, Bailey's was a top spot, although a bit of a trek to get into the centre of the site. We were near the entrance to the campervan field.

timespeedsup Posted April 13, 2012 Report Share Posted April 13, 2012 It includes the legendary Karl Powell camp, with whom we were going to play volleyball over the trees last year. Wonder if Live In Vehicles will grab his lot's spot again this year.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

viking jeff Posted April 14, 2012 Report Share Posted April 14, 2012 The site layout is still the same in terms of arena, campsite, live ins. But you'll find they have shaken the arena around a bit, to keep it intersting and improve the sound. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnnaGrant Posted April 14, 2012 Report Share Posted April 14, 2012 It'll seem so much closer when my ticket lands on my doormat, hopefully this week. just need the temperature to rise a bit, though on the bright side we'll have a great view of the stars at night if we have a cold high pressure area.

Gnomicide Posted April 15, 2012 Report Share Posted April 15, 2012 I'm giving this some serious thought but can't really afford it. Can someone please post something negative about the festival to put me off? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ringo_Spar Posted April 15, 2012 Report Share Posted April 15, 2012 There doesn't seem to be an up to date one available so I've had to dig out last years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gnomicide Posted April 15, 2012 Report Share Posted April 15, 2012 I've not been before, can you go back out to your car after you are in? I've read it's only a 10 minute walk away from the car park so making a few trips to save on the heavy load may be an idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
