One more sleep till tickets go on sale.
It's a sweating bricks kinda day 😅 🙃
Thanks for the update!
Got sorted bro
My better half worked her magic
Does anyone know if there will be anything open, say tea or snacks? Once there's water that'll do, though 👍
Having a good look for gas cylinders in vans.
At the campsite you mean? Everything should be open I'd imagine
Thats a massive shame about Roisin Murphy. Hopefully nothing serious. I was really looking forward to seeing her again.
We came in via gate 6. Searches were basic as. Didn’t even open any bags. Staff all lovely everyone in great mood. No guards no dogs. So much nicer than last year. We got from car to fully set up and having a first drink in a little over an hour. Happy out.
lyra would be a good replacement
Are they pulling everything out from the storage areas to look for gas canisters in the campervans?!
Is this likely to sell out. Might go down Saturday morning if there's still tickets
Asked to look in the gas cabinet. I took mine out this morning after reading yesterday about searches but they checked nowhere else. Now we were first few vans in but definitely checked the first 20 around us. If you put it out of sight until set up you should be grand. And if it's busy he might wave u on. Got a lovely 'security checked' sticker for the window though!
Would love to see them give the headline spot to The Scratch.
Prodigy have no live dates on Friday or Saturday, how difficult would it be logistically to move them into the slot vacated by Roisin Murphy I wonder
That would be the dream. Much prefer them on Saturday night.
Be nice to get a similar update from someone arriving tomorrow morning to see if it's the same story
Latest on site...
After getting settled and hanging myself outside to dry (in a chair), had a couple of cans and are now in by the Bandstand Area.
The Guinness is as good as last year, the atmosphere is lovely and chill as we would expect.he weather is beautiful... A great start.
Did they actually take any canisters out?
Bury the gas cannister deep somewhere and have an empty gas locker. No harm in burying all the excess booze and glassware too just on the off chance some jobsworth starts looking in drawers. Heard of people getting bottles of balsamic vinegar and the likes confiscated as they were sitting in the campervan / caravan in plain view and made of glass. A fridge full of wine and beer bottles all getting taken is another classic I've heard a few times. It's not rocket science to be discreet on the way in.
Only met one who prob said the wrong thing. Haven't heard anyone else saying they were taken, plenty of glass bottles of water being offered for a laugh I'd say play on caution side. Also campervan weekend wristbands have run out and can't get in!
Sweet. What's a pint setting us back this year. Think it was 7 euro last year ?
If anyone wants to leave before the rain hits on Sunday, I’ll buy your wrist band off ya.
In through Gate 6 and security was the softest I've ever experienced. They actually put another 10 cans on top of my trolley and asked will I bring them in for a fella who didn't realise there was no drink on re entry. Delighted to be here. Have a great weekend everyone!
Does anyone know where Camplight campsite is on the map. Head melted, stewards no help
Can't see that on the map at all
There's
1 for the road
A hard day's night
Bass camp
Both sides now
This must be the place.
I know, absolute joke that they haven't labelled it. We're completely stranded and nobody knows where it is
Camplight is here
Camplight is in a Hard Days Night. Where the little sun is and circled in red
you mean base camp campsite? Across from pink moon
Heading that way now, thanks folks. Please god it is
No, Camplight
