Here's a shot of when the rigging was lifted in 2019, on 18th June (!!)

Wow that’s shows how far ahead we are 🙂

 

by we … I mean they … 

2019 was particularly late for the setup, here's a pic from 2017 from 9th May. We are still ahead, but only by about 10 days or so

In the scheme of things 10 days to me is a long time with a build like this … when I see how close to the wire things often get … pier I’m looking at you …. There’s not such a big amount of time left to build a city … and it’s great to see anything ahead

Spectrum on the webcam at the moment,  surely not a pink Floyd hint! 😉

Where did you spot them? I reckon the top one is the Cadmus, Greenpeace ship. 
Bottom is a pile of timber, did you spit it on the hill above Dragon Field?

First one is sort of above and left of pyramid stage. And second one is sort of level with the Stone circle but the left hand side of screen

Quick look at the webcam this morning and I thought someone was doing an insurance job on the crane for a second 😃🔥

It’ll be what I said above then.

Not sure what this thing is, definitely not a standard container or HGV load.

Also, we have a big crane!

Might soon have an answer if the screens will be bigger on the Pyramid then.

Looking at prev years the frame around the screens looks like two arches bolted together one in front of another so I do wonder if that is all it will be again and they are laid out on the ground side by side.  Hoping for something different but I am a Leeds fan and used to disappointment.  Prepare yourselves if it isn't bigger screens - after two years our we are all getting giddy on here and I'm not sure how some of you will cope!

anyone else just sitting watching the camera now, waiting for the lift?

Got the auto refresher on big screen!  Looks like Other Stage is starting to ramp up as well.

Asked my Wife if she'd like to have a wander around the farm at the weekend before it properly closes down.

Even dangled the carrot of saying our daughter could play on the ship in the kidzfield.

It was a flat no.

It's really difficult having an other half who doesn't share the same passion for the festival 😂

It doesn't help that you live in New Zealand, can't blame her really 😄

Definitely the ship in the Green Kids field. My kids have spent many happy times there (while I chilled under the massive oak tree 🙂 ).

Lots of deliveries going on at the mo:

 

Something going on in the bottom corner of King's Meadow:

 

Something parked up in top corner of Arcadia by the looks of it: 

 

No point screenshotting this as you can't really see anything, but looks like trackway being laid around TOS. 

Also A LOT of heavy plant around the pyramid. There's the crane, two telehandlers in front of the stage and a third parked up to the right, plus a JCB.  Crew Van parked up to the right as well, by the Webbs Ash long drops suggesting more staff on site today.

Potentially the highlight of my week so far!

[Junglist1981]

I’m far more excited about that crane than I have any right to be lol

It’s almost as if they purposely scheduled it to entertain webcam watchers on the Friday of a bank holiday weekend.

I wish the screen lift was a live erection on the cam and please can they wait till after 12

More longdrop action in Micheals Mead.   Action packed Friday. 

[Deaf Nobby Burton]

[Gingerfish79]
