Yeah mate. 3 weeks from now at this time we'll have arrived after a 7 & a half hour drive, had a couple of tinnies & probably be having a wee snooze in the car waiting on the gates. 8 o'clock this year methinks.

I was just about to say the same thing! In the meantime here's quite a positive weather forecast:

June – Some warmth, occasional rain

June will feature some sunny episodes and warm to potentially very warm temperatures. The warmth will not be sustained everywhere, with cooler weather and showers or more organised bands of rain developing as high pressure is from time to time undermined from various quarters. In general, the North and West are at greatest risk of unsettled weather, whilst the South and East can again expect to remain the driest for the lengthiest periods, with south-eastern areas, where it will occasionally turn very warm, also likely to fare best temperature-wise. This part of England will share the better conditions likely to develop across much of mainland Europe – likewise however these are the areas at greatest risk from imported thundery showers. Temperatures for the UK and Irish Republic are on the whole likely to be just above the norm, with countrywide rainfall generally below the long-term average.

"organised bands of rain" - where on earth do they get these phrases from! If they are really organised maybe we can ask or pay them to amble off somewhere else for a few days How does a disorganised band or rain manage to do its job then

As long as they're not the Special Guests...

Can you imagine someone reading this and thinking, "The Organised Band of Rain, What a cool name for a band" and then wondering why they can never get a gig at Glastonbury?

So close I can almost smell it (that, or I've wet myself with excitement). Supposed to be finding somewhere to live as we're going to be homeless soon, but that can wait until July.

Oops!

As for finding somewhere to live, hang around on the Monday, there'll be loads of tents to scavenge!

You know, I do leave early but I still see some of empty looking tents and wonder whether or not they have been abandoned. And some of them are huge, family tents just flapping in the wind. Would hate to be arrested for tent stealing (the embarrassment of putting that on future job applications! )
