Mmm I keep overthinking everything... I don't know if I should bring a bag or just use my jacket pockets, I don't know what to take with me, I don't know what time would be best for queueing with a Premium View ticket... and my flight is in less than 48 hours!!
The thing that scares me the most is that all the stress might "wake up" my Lupus, it happened before and it could happen again :/
Aaaaghhh I need to calm down, I know!!!

There's nothing left, but faith

It’s very warm here at the moment, and they say it will be all weekend too, so I’m not planning on bringing a jacket...if that helps at all.

I will bring that 500 ml bottle of water, mastercard, a kleenex pack or two in case of no toiletpaper, hand sanitizer, earplugs (because I’m old, and don’t need tinitus in my life), sunglasses, drugs (painkillers, lactase in case of ice cream and antihistamin in case of everything), phone, powerbank and I will carry a hoodie around my waist.

So I guess I will wear my festival uniform, and bring that one bottle of water and my Master Card and nothing else...
What can possibly go wrong?

Except EVERYTHING!!!

Same feelings here...

But I don't see
And I don't feel
But tightly hold up silently
My hands before my fading eyes
And in my eyes
Your smile

I mistook stars reflected in a pond at night for those in the sky.

It's going to be hot on that stage...maybe TC will go for a similar look. Possibly minus the bumbags.

I've seen it! A huge construction site, almost ready. The main stage seems to look great. I couldn't take a pic as everything is screened with a thick, black net. Anyway, it looks good. And the ground is dry.

Just have found my hotel (pretty decent despite my worries) after having a very, very long walk through Hyde Park. Back and there again

BTW, I saw six horses crossing the street on the green light... All the time before, from 4 am, I spent in travel. Aiports, plane, coach station, coach... (Yes, a new word to learn, @ninja

)

I collected my ticket at Hyde Park tired, carrying my suitcase in the warm sun, but very content and... having had only two people in the queue in front of me. So far everything is fine. Zero problems. I hope it will stay that way and not only for me but for everyone coming to see The Cure.

But I don't see
And I don't feel
But tightly hold up silently
My hands before my fading eyes
And in my eyes
Your smile

Glad to hear you made it ok, lioness, and that your hotel is better than expected. Now you can kick back and enjoy!

I was telling my elderly neighbour about the journeys you guys are braving...her response was, "I hope this chap appreciates all the effort people are going to just to get to his anniversary party."

Have decided to try something novel for me. Instead of worrying about getting in the very front, will arrive to the morning queue well after the sun has risen, and will wander the festival grounds throughout the day and enjoy The Cure from wherever I find myself at 8:20pm that evening. Relaxed and not depriving myself of water in order to avoid leaving my spot? Crazy, I know.

Hope I don’t moan about my decision later! But I’m also hoping this means I can see some of your lovely faces throughout the day

I bet this lasts until about 6ish and then the lure of the stage will drag you in like a gigantic magnet cheesy_smile

Your timings are correct (will finish nearer 6pm if extra time and penalties) but what I'm hearing is that the football/no football on screens thing is still undecided.
