Rockin' (seems appropriate)    

Same at London Stadium for the Stones. I had pitch tickets but then ruptured a tendon a week or so before and had to sit in them. 

This. If G24 was either the weekend before or after, it’d have been chaos. We’ve just got to hang on for one more year, then in 2026 it can absolutely piss it down.

We rocked up about 4pm on the Wednesday.  Pitching my tent in that heat was no laughing matter.  I literally had to strip wash and change my clothes after because I was so drenched with sweat my clothes were dripping afterwards.  Thankfully half an hour draped over my tent and they were bone dry again.   I loved 2017 weather, the mist coming in on the Wednesday night after the fireworks made the site look magnificent in the night, coloured swathes of lit mist everywhere.  Every morning some mist and a light shower so thin it barely counted as rain, so you could get a bit of a lie in, every afternoon glorious sunshine without being 7000 degrees centigrade and no shade.  Probably my favourite year for the weather (although 2022 and 2024 put in a good show)
