Guest Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 Ok what do you think........................................I haven't been to Glastonbury since I had children (18 years) and every year I sit and watch and wish I was there, my daughter went last year and this year I have a ticket, but, I am scared about going, I will go with a few friends (I don't know them that well, but they are lovely ladies who always go) they are mums from school, but I have only left the children once to go to London overnight (December 2008) and to be honest I am one of those mums who finds it very difficult to leave the children. So I have until May when If I run out of courage I can get a refund on my ticket...what do you lot think? You are my real friends, my husband is fine about me going as he has always had weekend holidays for years with his friends and is having one to France this year, he does motorbike holidays which I cannot do as I worry too much about the safety issue of both of us being away from the children. Should I go ? I need to know what groups are headlining which will help to swing my decision - I love to hear groups live and so I know I will love it...The Pigeon Detectives are rumourred to be going - I love them! Anyone else going? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HappyMaz Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 Anyone else going? Ooh there's a question! A friend and I were talking about going to Reading Festival last year but somehow it never happened. I'm not sure I'd be brave enough - but if there's a group of you then I'd say go for it! If you don't know these ladies very well now you'll certainly know them well by the end of the Festival! I seem to remember some people posting on here last year about going to Glastonbury though - what about a Forum Yurt? Maz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rea Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 Your children will always be there but events like this might not. Go and have a fab time, wish I'd got someone to go with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shiny Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 You should definately go. You may regret it if you don't and if you really dislike it when you are there you can come home!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aliamch Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 GO GO GO! I'm hoping to waiting to see if little bruv (he's 40), has got me a ticket; I've been a couple of times and absolutely loved it. I sound like you, I've never left my children with a babysitter, but I have got family I can rely on if me and my husband go out together; which isn't often. look at this site for rumoured line-up. http://glastonburyfest.org/line-up/ Karrie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 Go and have fun I always worried in advance when I left my (now grown up) children with their Dad when I was lucky enough to go away with colleagues or friends, but I really do think that it was a good experience for all of us.....Glastonbury here you come .....not my scene...but have a great time, you will treasure the memories Julie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
