We've had this 3 years in a row now. Aiming for Gate D, get diverted to Gate A. Friends arrive 2 hours later get into gate D and enter site 2 hours before us. I'm convinced it's because the coaches get priority when they start arriving, but when we made the gate, the stewards organising the entry were appalling. Just letting the coach arrivals enter all the queues and the car people confined to the end two. Lots of people were struggling in the heat with all their kit. I had to sit in the shade for 2 hours when we got in and couldn't even help put the tents up!
Next year if they shut D, my plan is to wait at the junction until they reopen it again.
I usually have dodgy guts that has meant having to exit sets through dense crowds, and this year employed a new strategy. Only eat food that comes with a fork (so no burgers/burritos etc) and antibac wipe my phone each day. Worked a treat!
