dingbat2 Posted June 14, 2022 Report Share Posted June 14, 2022 Fleet Services son the M3 on the way there Gordano Services on the M5 for the be cast KFC ever on way home, feeling smug with all the other dirty, tanned people with wrist bands and Glasto stickers in their car windows, knowing we have all shared a weekend we will never forget and survived ... In different directions I know, but thats the way the traffic flows from Pink 54 car park on the Monday! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ClementsMike Posted June 14, 2022 Report Share Posted June 14, 2022 The MacDonalds that’s nearby. Last globalist horrible consumerism before a few days escape. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simsy Posted June 14, 2022 Report Share Posted June 14, 2022 Nowhere in particular on the way there, but when we drive it's become tradition to grab a pizza for dinner from the Waitrose in Salisbury on the way home. That's normally the moment when I realise just how much I smell 😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clarkete Posted June 14, 2022 Report Share Posted June 14, 2022 6 hours ago, Watergirl said: I go to Glastonbury, the town. Hang around for a few days, get in the mood and go up the Tor. Great to see the site in the distance from up there. Sometimes I stay in Glastonbury, sometimes in the village of Street. Love it and it is part of my festival experience now. When you talk to locals they refer to the festival as 'Pilton'. First went 37 years ago with other kids who were from Strode College in Street. Everybody simply said "are you going to Pilton this year?" and nobody would dream of using the G word... as they knew it's not in Glastonbury Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will it be absolute carnage with all the festival goers? We are campervanning this year so staying with mates that have moved to Bristol on the Monday and then heading onto site Tuesday afternoon I stayed in Bristol on the Monday night ahead of my coach to the site on Tuesday in 2019 as I was volunteering for Shelter/Avalon, you wouldn't have known the festival was on tbh, even on the Tuesday lunchtime...bar the 150 of us who were together getting the coach!

Unless you of course you are particularly close to royalty. 😝 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
westholtschic Posted June 14, 2022 Report Share Posted June 14, 2022 We always stay on the Friday and Saturday at the Isle of Avalon campsite in Glastonbury before heading to the FMS campsite on the Sunday. Can’t wait. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gloucester is lovely but too close to home to stop on the way down. Gloucester is definitely closer to me if you're going from Telford. Don't let logic, being sensible or time keeping stop you! I figure, one hour in is exactly the right time to feel I've started making a dent, so time for a (fancy) coffee and an extra overpriced sausage roll! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any super easy to reach craft beer shop or brewery with a shop (I once made a detour to Siren but that would be a bit too much) No idea on craft beer places but the Solstice has a really big Co-op petrol station shop that sells loads.
