deebeedoobee Posted October 2, 2014 Report Share Posted October 2, 2014 Morning all. Good news for H.M.V. I hope the heart rates have all returned to normal, well at least until Sunday. So glad I don't have to go through all that to get a ticket. I think I would go into melt down. Anyway on the weather front, still walking Big Dog at 7.45am in a t-shirt (me not BD, that would embarrass him) in October - how mad is that! Down on the farm M.E gave us a wave as he cheerily followed a wagon of sheep arriving on the farm. Once they are out in the fields that will give Big Dog something else to look at. LOOK NOT TOUCH!!

carlosj Posted October 2, 2014 Report Share Posted October 2, 2014 Morning all, I've been offered an allotment in the village (mine is in the next one). I take this as a sign that I will be given exclusive access to 10 ticket pages on Sunday for us, and for Emily to offer for the Park Stage to be named after me. NFR NFC NFiS y'all.

mr gumby Posted October 2, 2014 Report Share Posted October 2, 2014 So glad to have got tickets in the first chance. No need to stress about Sunday or resales! Also quite like the idea of a kip on the coach on the Monday! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lucyginger Posted October 2, 2014 Report Share Posted October 2, 2014 14 minutes is scary! Was it 9 last year? Slodge what do you mean ALT tab f5? Am I missing something?

We've got 2 lots of 6 and one lot of 4 to get but once (hopefully!) they are done I will help if I can!!I presume Slodge is talking about refreshing using multiple browsers (not tabs) and using ALT+Tab to switch between each one, refreshing as he goes.

We've got 2 lots of 6 and one lot of 4 to get but once (hopefully!) they are done I will help if I can!! Not sure about alt F5, but Ctrl F5 does a forced refresh from the server, as F5 alone can sometimes refresh the webpage from cache on your laptop, which therefore be out of date.

lucyginger Posted October 2, 2014 Report Share Posted October 2, 2014 I am now even more confused! So if I have one window with a few tabs open, do I just go to each one and hit f5? Thats what I've done before! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeffie Posted October 2, 2014 Report Share Posted October 2, 2014 As Stu says, you can use different browsers, Safari, Chrome, IE, Firefox. But only one tab in each. Cycle betwen them and hit F5, Practically, I don't think you can do 4 browsers, gets too confusing. Especially when like me you've also got a work laptop on VPN (which after last years success was shite last night btw).... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carlosj Posted October 2, 2014 Report Share Posted October 2, 2014 No! You should only be using one tab per browser. Ok, yes, I agree for Glastonbury, it should be 1 tab, but I was being general. However, when I had errors last year, I closed the other tabs, refreshed, and gulp, got tickets. It is going to be sooooooo hard to manage tabs, browsers, notepad files, facebook groups and eFests.

lucyginger Posted October 2, 2014 Report Share Posted October 2, 2014 I am going to have one window open with one tab for the ticket page, one for facebook, one for twitter and one for efests. Then I will f5 each one! Will that be ok? I really dont know about technical things!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Virtual Private Network, the way we (Jeffie and I) use it in work is to create an encrypted connection from the laptop from home or Costa Coffee, or wherever, into the work network, so that data going back and forth is protected, In other words, Jeffie's using his work's laptop. I'm not, so you takes your choice... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Splodge Posted October 2, 2014 Report Share Posted October 2, 2014 To clarify, I think he means Alt+Tab, then F5 That's what I meant, failed miserably last night tho, not looking good for Sunday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
