Lots of people emailed ticketseller and they reissued the tickets barcodes so that they printed correctly. I suggest you email the ticketseller and let them know it is happening . I had my tickets resent and they downloaded correctly. Thanks for this. Reassuring to know i’ve Not totally missed something. I have sent them an email, only an automated response so far though but fingers crossed they reissue the barcodes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frostypaw Posted August 5, 2019 Report Share Posted August 5, 2019 (edited) 18z looking better - general agreement remains on that poop of thursday night/friday morning rain but it's smaller. General weather pattern remains sorta cruddy with possible small showers but as you can see there will be some warm nights out of the cloud so some win too, and nobody roasting in their tents.

jimbarkanoodle Posted August 6, 2019 Report Share Posted August 6, 2019 Metcheck seems far more optimistic. Possibly a bit too optimistic though as the BBC news this morning were predicating a fair soaking for Friday, and really windy too. Wind is shit for festivals as it blows the sound all over the shop (harder to keep to the noise limits), and as someone else said the opening ceremony being in the pissing rain is a downer too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Henrik Posted August 6, 2019 Report Share Posted August 6, 2019 21 minutes ago, jimbarkanoodle said: really windy too. BBC are describing it as a "fresh breeze". It really is just that horrid band of rain on Thursday/Friday that we need to worry about. It does seem to be weakening with each update so that's good. Either side of that, it looks like a couple of light showers at worst. I'm reasonably happy with the forecast tbh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmm, the woman forecaster on the BBC this morning said it was going to be really windy, although that might be for mostly up north, which is always worse. Im happy enough with the forecast currently too. Would far prefer the Metcheck take on things than all the others though, which seem to be predicting thunderstorms.

jimbarkanoodle Posted August 6, 2019 Report Share Posted August 6, 2019 Wouldn't be fussed at all if Lauryn Hill has pulled out. I know in the past they have had issues with reggae artists cancelling at the last minute due to not being permitted into the country. Be intrigued to find out!

mr flow Posted August 6, 2019 Report Share Posted August 6, 2019 He's just said on Twitter that it isn't Lauryn Hill or The Streets. They were bigging up Chronixx earlier too, so guessing it isn't them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
