We were sat down sheltering under ponchos with beers, waiting for the Libs to open the Other.

briddj Posted June 4, 2023 Report Share Posted June 4, 2023 This time tomorrow we will have the very first GFS chart covering the festival -- for 6am on the Wednesday before the gates open. Let the roller coaster commence. 1 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4AssedMonkey Posted June 4, 2023 Report Share Posted June 4, 2023 I honestly can’t remember the Friday rain last year. I was probably in the tent getting ready as we left for the Pyramid about 11:30 to watch Ziggy Marley and it was glorious then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I must have some sort of mental block going on. 😂 Mild showers at Glasto are no longer worth overwriting data for so I have a completely dry festival. Yay! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only really noticed as it was that warm southerly rain that obviously originated in the Sahara due to the sandy specks it left on my clean white tent. We were litterpicking from 6am and I think we had rainbows in the sky on Friday, Saturday and Monday first thing. And yes, I had to ‘brush’ my tent when I got it home to get the sand off!

All quite light and refreshing but someone at home sent me a mail article saying it was a mud fest .

Those of us that will be darting about all over the site will welcome the breeze. It's 22C in London today and I'm darting about no problem. 22-24 is is perfect. 17C means no short sleeve shirts and also implies a very very cold evening.

Around then, I would have been having a bite to eat in Avalon cafe. No recollection of rain whatsoever either then or in the morning. I think my psyche must be suppressing it.

It's absolutely perfect again today If it's anything like Devon then it's too hot. No one can really want weather like this for the festival, unless they're a lizard.

Today in London is the edge of ok for me especially running after a 3 year old. I’d prefer a couple of degrees colder, 17 is easily shorts and T-shirt weather and jumper in the evening Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was late morning / early afternoon from what I remember but it wasn't much at all. The weather last year was great id take that again in a heartbeat. 2019 was too hot.
