Probably best to bring a couple along or a large hanky. Just in case they haven't managed to solve the dust issue.
We're taking loads so don't worry about bringing your own, come see us in the clearing or we will probably be handing them out at a few stages.
Tbh the dust didn't affect me much last year. I was just boggled by the sight of everyone wearing something on their faces after I got off the Deep Medi Boat, I thought someone had got some meme going.
I can nick dust masks from work

Yeah, I got my shifts. I'm a fort steward! Perhaps I'll be able to sneak off and watch a few artists while working.

hows the campsite? is it big? how hard is to find a nice place where there arent too many people around you?
nothing worse than not being able to sleep on a campsite

it's pretty unsociable hours though - leaving heathrow at 6am (to trieste via rome), and then back from trieste at 6:50 on the 5th so will have to miss a bit of the end of outlook probably
Sounds like we'll be on the same flight mate!
Leaving on the 31st?
I get back on the 7th though.

Yeah same price as the ticket, just in case you get the wristband and don't turn up to your shifts, but i wanna know if they will like search for you and fuck you up as well as not giving your money back if you don't turn up.

fairly sure Outlook is run by a small group of music lovers, not the Russian Mafia
I reckon either just definitely turn up & don't leave them short staffed, or quit now and buy yourself one of the many less than face value tickets knocking about...

They're a fairly laid back bunch of people, they won't be out to screw you over. They just want to run a good party. Just let them know in advance once you find out you've fucked up your travel.
