Only a bit of light rain on Friday and Monday. Even if it was raining the whole weekend, I imagine it would be infinitely more manageable than a wet Glastonbury.

We are at a festival this week...let that sink in!

Not had the email yet about the covid test, entry thing. Anybody else had one yet?

Not had mine yet

[sadimmock]

I got mine this morning! 

[Flaminglippy]

Can't do anything with it yet...roll on Wednesday. Hopefully will be a quick process like they say

Do we know, or has anyone got a best guess, on capacity for this?

4,000 would be a pretty good guess, as that's the legal maximum

Cool, that's what I was assuming too. Trying to think if I've ever been to a festival that small before so I can visualise what that looks like...

Yeah 4k but the site can hold 10k (which I think is their intended capacity going forward)

Probably looks a bit like 4000 people in a field drinking beer...

Definitely 4000.

Going there on Thursday to work the weekend 😃

3999 people drinking beer, my 5 year old has decided she is sticking to gin for the weekend

It's getting really real isn't it? Time to do some last minute festival shopping! 

[TheFullShaboo]

Just had my negative result back from my covid test! Must admit i was a little nervous after the scenes in the pub on Sunday watching England!

Logged my negative LFT today. Then went to the pub for quick 4 pint lunch 😏

[Flaminglippy]

Surprisingly quick process that!

Anyone have any info on the covid test that needs to be done prior? Is a photo of a home lateral flow test enough?

[Flaminglippy]

 

Interesting article about Bigfoot!

You have to register the results with the NHS, then when you have a confirmation email/text from the NHS, screenshot it, click on the link in the email from Bigfoot, put your ticket number on, fill in a little form, then upload a copy of email/text from NHS confirming test was negative, you then get an email from the organisers with a new ticket on confirming you have been through the process. Print off and jobbie done!

Sounds like a faff but once the test is done the NHS form completion and the ticket one is a 10 minute job

Not sure if this has been shared already, but looks like they've been getting a bit of a battering on Social Media about bringing your own food and drink and have made a bit of a quiet reverse:
