Default So, what time you heading off?
We will be leaving at about 2pm on Tuesday, no idea what the traffic will be like, but planning to stop en route for some grazing.

Getting giddy with excitement now

Hope to be leaving at 4 am, 2 hour ish drive should put us in the car park at around 6.

I'm sure that last year there was a field half full of vans right next to the gate, can any one confirm this as we are going in two vans.

Prob join the que at the gate as soon as we get there to be honest.

Then its a long walk to the fields above Shangri-la (bloddy kids!) not going to be carrying any thing though...

Then spend the next hour or so putting up the tents.

Then its off to the brothers bar for some well earned pear cider, and let the good times roll!

I'm only just across the border in Wiltshire; about an hour away. I have a campervan so not really bothered about time gate opens. I plane to get there about dawn Wednesday, which is possibly 4:00ish. Not really sure as not normally up that early. In reality will stay up and leave when the suspense gets too great.
Not sure if the campervan fields staff work all night.

Taking the train from Edinburgh to Bristol on Tuesday morning: hit Bristol at five or so, then Wells before seven and finally reach a campsite before dark (depending on whether or not pubbage happens in Wells or closer in). Up bright and early on the Wednesday and head for whichever of Pedestrian Gates A or D seems like a better idea.

We're only in Hampshire, we can make Glastonbury town in an hour and a half without traffic, all depends on how many people decide to spend the night in a car park.

Leaving Belfast on Tuesday on the 10.30pm ferry, get into Liverpool about 6.30am Wed and drive down... will get to campsite sometime in the afternoon and hope there's still space in Cockmills!

Kinda frustrating that we leave so early but get there late, but no other way for it!
