Ordered a decent pair of hiking boots and a couple of hoodies for the evening time. 🙂

I’m attempting to build the pyramid stage but I’m sadly not very patient 🙂

Daft punk arrival … pyramid frame will be with me end of the week ready for construction 

 

Is Daft Punk playing at your house?

I've rearranged a family visit for September and done a 180 on wishing to attend Glasto, which I thought wasn't going to be possible this year. After long discussions with Mrs Meatwagon, calendars out, sharpies and highlighters at the ready, we've found room for me to attend this year!

Just need my friends and I to get a ticket now.

[Crazyfool01]

Build nearly complete but for one missing part 

[squirrelarmy]

I can’t believe I forgot to send a piece. 
 

It will be in the post tomorrow 🤦‍♂️

Started listening to the Butters playlist on Spotify.  Am just reminded how much I like Blondie.

Also really enjoyed Amadou & Mariam.  Have seen them several times but the tracks on that playlist are particularly good.  Curious about ADG7.

My van passed its MOT 😅

Blondie are just brilliant.

As did my twelve year old car. Despite me running into the back of someone about a week before the test.

One bulb (rear brake) replacement and advisories on one tyre and exhaust emissions. But strangely not the tyre with an obvious huge chunk of rubber just about clinging on off of the side of it. Go figure?

Insurance company told me it was a write off. Technically true I suppose, but it is purely bodywork/cosmetic damage rather than unfunctionable/unsafe to drive damage.

I am practising driving more carefully to get ready for Glastonbury.

It sounds like I'm trolling but I'm genuinely curious, what is the benefit of a gilet? Don't your arms get cold while your body ia roasting? Is it even waterproof?

Haha. Didn't get that. Went way over my head, you had me surfing for a new item to potentially add to my wardrobe then! 

[___DGH___]

What have I done today, parted with hard cash and feeling extremely joyful about doing so. Which never happens.

£40 a day on food alone!

How much do people spend at Glastonbury?

Since you asked, my budget is £50 a day plus a £100 cushion. That covers all food, merch, and any additional drink I buy beyond what I bring in. I’ve found that’s a realistic figure, and I usually bring back a few bob as well. 

[sime]

Paid my balance 🙂

[Wherethewildthingsare]

Paid up! 

[stanh]

As like many others, paid the ticket off... So excited now, just need the rest of stage/area announcements now!

In the middle of a path? (Where is that btw? Looks like maybe a bridge on the left?).
