What have you done today to get ready for Glastonbury 2023?

[sime]

Ordered these this morning. They were on offer at Amazon for £46. I have always worn Converse and Wellingtons to Glastonbury. But must admit that I found it heavy going on my feet last year in Converse. I like the look and sound of these boots, so bought them (half a size up from my usual size as I read that's the thing to do). Looking forward to breaking them in before the festival 🙂

My Regatta walking boots have arrived. My first ever pair of walking boots. They are very comfortable. Looking forward to breaking them in further ready for Glastonbury. Very happy with them.

Kids have started walking the dog with me after school (normally "too tired")

Told them they've gotta build their stamina up because they're not coming if they're going to moan. I'm not lugging around a trolly so told them I haven't paid for their tickets so if they dint make an effort to get walking practise in then it's not too late to call grandma to babysit for the week 🤣🤣

They're desperate to come so walking it is 👍🏼

Excellent. That's my kind of parenting 🙂

done well there ... that app has a nice surprise although obviously doesnt make up for the extra costs of inflation  .... I hear some of the train strikes are off so that help this years transport arrangements run a bit better

Happy days! I must say the Raspberry Ripple flavour sounds stunning! Hope that makes this years flavour line up on the farm.

I need a replacement tent pole because one of mine is broken (I forgot this last year and only remembered when I had to put up said tent at a festival, v annoying) - anyone know a good place to get replacement tent poles? Any help much appreciated!

Often the manufacturers sell spares

Booked to go to Parklife in case my Oxfam shifts at Glastonbury clash with Raye & Aitch.

We took a stroll up the tor just before sunset today, quiet and peaceful, just beautiful

Tweeted the festival / theatre and circus to see if there’s potential to get in as a walkabout act in the future

I've started doing bring Sally up squats in prep for the long drop contactless stress position.

Or just sit down properly and remove the risk of trashing the seat for the next user.

Convinced my wife to bring our four year old daughter. I've been wanting to bring her for years.  I've got a ticket, so it's just the small matter of trying to get the wife a ticket in the resale.

Had a quick look online for bandanas in prep for Saturday nights pyramid headline set…

Received the pay from which my ticket balance will be paid. Now I have to sit on it for two and a half weeks.

realised i left my festival waterproof jacket out on the balcony since last year - its not looking too happy so spent the first half hour of "work" this morning browsing replacements...
