Re: Glastonbury: Day of Doom

Tillie keep trying, they tend to release tickets in blocks, so there may be more. Also, by tomorrow some tickets will be back on sale for those poor gits whose credit cards wouldn't cover the price! I thought I'd missed out on Reading and was very gutted as all my mates managed to get tickets! However, I had a speculative look the following day, and sure enough got a pair of tickets :-)

There will be some more going on sale on 22nd April (check the date and time on Glastonbury website) - all those people with declined debit cards, duplicate purchases, etc etc.


Also, if you opt for the 'coach and Glasto' package, you probably stand a much higher chance: thare were 25,000 of those guaranteed, and most people don't want the coach.

If that is motivation for your teenager to leave home, it may indeed be a good thing. My neighbours teenager has not gotten out of bed since leaving Dulwich College last summer. He will not even open the front door to the dog walker.


Teenagers of today, they get too much if you ask me!


How old does Max have to be before I can get him a paper round or send him up a chimney?

And Tillie, for future years, why not recommend that they apply to be an Oxfam volunteer at the festival (this one or the many others that Oxfam works with)? Too late for this year for Glasto, but this kills so many birds with one stone, viz


- introduces them to the concept of work


- makes money for the charity (which gets around ?200 per volunteer)


- often allows them to work with their friends (same shifts)


- means you don't have to pay for a ticket for them, or for transport, and they get fed and have *exclusive* volunteer facilities (ha!)


- they are out of your hair


and so on. Why not suggest, indeed, that they apply to volunteer at a different festival? (Some still open for volunteer applications this year e.g. Glade.) You know it makes sense!

Sounds like a very good idea Lou and very grateful that you have thought about my predicament...unfortunately, like most teenagers, she wouldnt dream of getting her hands dirty. This would have been her 3rd year at Glasto already and like most of us she is fully into the laid backness that is Glasto. Will defo be trying again on the 22nd.

    • Yet another increase, its absolutely disgusting. I was charged £7.95 to send documents recorded delivery last week. I asked for the Signed for option that only costs £2.50 but the Post Office refused & said they would only send them recorded delivery. 
    • Thanks Admin for clarifying - I’ve now found the post they used to scrape my telephone number from. So it wasn’t a data breach from EDF, rather my foolishness posting it online 15 years ago…    Still leaving this thread here if that’s ok so that people are aware of this scam and don’t fall foul of it (also to think twice before posting phone numbers here as it can be used by any one as I’ve found out!)
    • There is deliberately nowhere to enter your phone number, name, address etc anywhere when registering an account on this forum. There never has been. There is no way to attach this sort of personal information to your account.  If someone says that EDF has given your phone number, then this is a lie. No personal information is sold to any third party and it is not collected in the first place.     
    • Anyone else received a cold call from this company pretending to be calling on behalf of EE? When I asked how they’d got my data they said ‘from East Dulwich forum’. I have contacted the Admin to find out whether EDF are selling our data to marketing companies or if they’ve been hacked. Alternatively the website is being scraped somehow.    Just warning others in case anyone else receives a call- it’s a scam, do not engage with them 🙂
