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

[Fred Zepplin]

Getting the tents out today for check and re-waterproofing, not like they will need to be waterproof, NFRNFC

Was at my first Springsteen concert in Dublin on Tuesday past. 3hrs and 5 mins with no break, absolutely amazing night. Still buzzing from it. 

Ah, terrific! Glad you had a great time!

Sitting worrying about what time the coach will set off on Thursday 

[El Weirdo]

Got horrendously drunk last night and slept in the tent.

I can confirm that it works.

[CaledonianGonzo]

Took my new day bag out for a test hike. Mixed outcome, but nothing a kilt pin won't fix.

You can get cream for that

This year we’re going with some mates who haven’t been since 2011, so last night was vlog watching with a few beers, discussing some tactics and generally building the hype.

need to power the hat and light it somehow 🙂 

[Beerqueen]

Cut my toe nails and then went for a walk.  Remembered there's always a sharp bit that's left.  Reminded myself not to do this immediately before a festival.

[Twiggy553]

I bought some mud tracks to go under the van wheels in case its a muddy year

[sunnyshoes]

I've started upping my walking game in preparation for all the trekking so today went for two walks. I've also started watching last year's BBC coverage so I can free up space in my Sky box for this year's coverage. Also starting to think about a booze plan.

Is there any audio files of glasto performances to listen while trying to get some steps in?

I've been listening to some DJ sets on Soundcloud from last year (I think) to keep me going and keep my pace up. 

I'm a bit more worried about my feet than my legs at the mo. 

[-TLR-]

not today, but Saturday - had our annual put up the tent / Eurovision BBQ.

i was fearing the worst for our tent - i couldn't get it back in the bag last year so i just stuck loads of gaffa tape round it to get it home and its been sat like that in the garage ever since.

but once untaped and put up, its actually in great condition just need a few new pegs.

The dog walking will be stepped up from today to 2 hours a day, I'm not sure if the dog will be happy or not 

[Bike_Like_A_Mum]

Spent the whole day finishing off my caravan yesterday!! I've papered the replaced wall boards and will add just add some white trim/border over the joins. Finished touching up all the paint and everything back in it's place. Posting here because I'm absolutely feckin WELL happy with it!! 😊

Car is in for MOT & Service today as well so vehicles all in tip top shape ready to roll the 6 hours down to Pilton. And the sun is out Wooohoooo!!

[CaledonianGonzo]

Rum supplies arrived, but just realised I've under-ordered as some will be required for going to Beyonce and Harry Styles.

[ameski18]

Set up my laptop on my treadmill this morning! Walked 5k steps so far. 
Sitting behind a desk all day is a killer for festival season!

Van's in for a heater fix. Although I hope I'm not going to need it for the next 4 months! 😐 
Need to order an awning rail so I don't have to tie it down this year. 

Sampling of Brothers cider flavours continues this evening. So far, Festival Apple and Cherry Bakewell are the top!

Mrs Q drunkenly bought a light up sequined hoodie at the weekend, and a wig.
