Also Halfords are half brains - rang me yesterday after I reserved my cheapo chair, said yeah no bother you can collect it tomorrow. My poor ma treks all the way up only to be told there's no chair and they haven't had chairs for weeks...

Fuming. Sourced a lend of one now from a lad I know who's in the army, but god knows it'll probably be a tonne weight. Why do I do it to myself every year

That diversion from Vicarstown is a pain in the swiss.

I've a rucksack for my back for clothes, pyjamas, towels, wellies.

I've a granny trolley for my drink, food, sleeping bag. That's one hand gone.

Other hand for tent (4 man for myself).

Second trip back to the car for chair, air mattress and pump. If I survive the first.....

Where do you put your slippers?

Micksgarage have them for a tenner - https://www.micksgarage.com/d/camping-furniture/products/3384667/canvas-chair-with-arms

They do next day delivery but I've never waited more than 48 hours with standard shipping for anything I've ordered.

Same here. I arrived in work this morning and thought how am I possibly going to go through another 3 days of work this week, it's like serving a prison sentence. Have been flat out reading this thread and updating the clashfinder, starting to take shape although still plenty to come.

I wonder when we are going to get the rest of the Body & Soul times? Last year they released all of them on the Monday but this year it was just the main.

I'm gonna have to donate money to a charity of your choice or something, as I feel like I've been using nothing but your clashfinders to the past year or two.

The EP one in particular must be a massive amount of effort. Hugely appreciated FB as it makes a massive difference to the stage planning.

Rankin Woods on Saturday looks immense, I might actually spend the whole day in there then saunter over to Le Galaxie in Jerry Fish or Massive Attack on the main stage

Mik Pyro
will be singing Republic of Loose songs I assume(?)
Maggie Rogers
Dermot Kennedy
Tom Misch
Mount Kimbie
King Krule
Nina Kraviz

Probably the section of the weekend I am most looking forward to.

Into Massive Attack after and finish up with Youngr.

Maybe you should take a day off?

Edit: I'll get my coat.

It is but where are they diverting to? If you’re at vicarstown diversion will you be sent to yellow? Red car park seems like you’d have to drive past green to get there if coming from vicarstown

Cheers lads. I didn't even create the one this year (not sure who did) but have been updating it a lot the past few days along with some others who contribute also! It's part of the excitement in the build up and keeps me occupied in work :pac: You might see me on Sunday, I'll be the worse for ware guy sprinting from Chic to Denis Sulta after the last song..

Bunk Moreland · 28-08-2018 03:24PM

Is it even red, green and yellow car parks this year? The Gardai seem to think it's A, B and C on one side and V, W, X, Y and Z on the other. I'm reading their document now and coming from the north I'll be pushed towards B and C then A when they fill up.

Hogzy · 28-08-2018 03:26PM

In fairness I took up about five pages this year with my moaning

Will this be the first time an EP thread has hit 10k?

I’m pretty sure I was (eventually) filtered through to the centre of Stradbally the past two years.

Torn between Johnny Logan and Death Grips. They're EQUALLY hardcore.

Red are A, B & C
Green are V, W, X, Y & Z
Yellow is just one field I believe.

B*Witched vs Dua Lipa
big clash of interests there for a certain demographic of a sat night
