i suppose it depends on what time the music kicks off, Cyfarthfa.

Didn't we meet up at about 6.30ish last year?

I suppose in that case that the Forum Meet up will be on thursday from 6.30pm onwards in front of the bar in the Walled Garden.

ALL, absolutely ALL are welcome.

there will be at least one person wearing a green t-shirt with 'all night disco wrecked my weekend' on it.

Treat them like a long lost brother or sister.

Thanks for making the arrangements Elizabeth :)

6:30 in the Walled Garden sounds great to me.

Looking forward to meeting some old friends and making some new ones.

Will you be bringing a copious supply (of frazzles)? I used to know a guy who had frazzles in pitta bread most days for lunch.

Does anyone come to the festival from Malta?

My supply of Twistees has run out, and there's no snack nicer. Even better washed down with a bottle of Kimmie.

Thanks Peridot and Krasnyi; looking forward to seeing everybody - coming with Mr Mc and mini Mc's....Yep, can't seem to shake them off...like I've mentioned on here before, my kids seem to regard GM as an entitlement rather than a privilege.

Still, you've a responsibility as a parent to instill the highest possible musical taste in your kids.

Fine sentiments Elizabeth!

My daughter will need a real ticket for the first time next year but I only got a smirk when I told her she'd need to start saving for it. Of all the things she can tap me up for she knows that's not even the slightest challenge.

The times for Thursday are now up on Green Man Facebook (thank you Walter): do we want to change the time of the meet, or it's location in the light of this new information?

What about the end up bar at 6.30? Gives everyone the chance to see the bands.

I think lennie's suggestion

I think lennie's suggestion is a good one. Loks of folk wanting to see both Money and Patti Smith. It's too late to have the meet afterwards and I imagine that earlier than 6:30 will be a problem for a lot of people too.

There are a few site layout changes this year though. Are we certain that the End Up bar is still beside the Far Out tent? I suppose the name doesn't make sense otherwise.

That's not a bad idea

That's not a bad idea Cyfarthfa, maybe a little earlier?

We will be arriving early on Thursday so it wouldn't be an issue for us, however it might be a problem for folk arriving later.

Hi All,

A GM Newbie here. Been lurking on here for while but just taken plunge to join in! Really excited to be experiencing my 1st music festival experience at GM with my friend. We'd like to join you for the meet-up at Endup Bar at 6.30pm on Thurs but won't be wearing green tshirts!We'll look out for you and looking forward to it immensely!

So is the consensus to keep the start time at 6:30 pm but move the location to the End-Up bar (which the map confirms is adjacent to the Far Out tent)?
