I can imagine disposing of dead animals in a van is pretty tiring work...

Hoping someone can point me in the right direction please?  ...For previous years I've always bought my ticket well in advance, but this year was a bit undecided, but am now thinking of just turning up on Saturday...Is there a box office on site to buy tickets?...Obviously I'm very familar with the ticket/wristband exchange but wasn't aware of any box office...Sorry if I sound a bit dim...   |

Unless things have changed the 'Box Office' will be in the Cricket Club car park. Although I have bought tickets at other car park entrances. The problem normal is that they can't get a connection on their credit card machines. |

Keep off that Pump weed it makes you bleed!!!
"Punkweed" I think, but probably has a similar effect. Ah, but only it you smoke it...  I'll be in the mosh for Caravan - anyone else likely to be there? Oh Yes, I should be there... Cheers, Slippy  |

Does anyone know if we have to deal with those slightly nonsensical pink bands for every piece of stuff we take into the arena field this year or have they dropped that idea. I understand the reasoning for those pink bands but the administration of them was a bit daft. If they are still being enforced, I’ll have to try and remember my mobile number again |

Would you just look at that weather forecast - looking rather lovely and warm apart from a possibly showery Friday morning but even that looks set to blow away by lunchtime. Very pleased with the temperatures forecast for the weekend after last year's chilly evening shifts. |

Very pleased with the temperatures forecast for the weekend after last year's chilly evening shifts. Errm the forecast is getting better but still looks a bit dubious for Friday and we could be getting rather damp from about 9.00pm onwards tomorrow. Let’s hope the “unseasonably low pressure” doesn’ hang around . Love your optimism though! |

Best wishes for a fantastic festival to all from me here in Maine and Paul who is tugging in the melting Artic this summer. Our fingers (and toes) are crossed that the weather cooperates for you and that we are able to join you next year. xox K  |

And finally here, after spending an insane 2 hours on the M25 from A3 to M40 (two accidents with lane closures). Found the glamping bar, tea & coffee to hand, now listening to Richard Thompson rehearsing on the main stage. Sorted!!!
