@NickyRR @thegreatescape Wise move! I guess the chances of someone that travels that far for a gig bailing is zero. Also, the Aussie guys are always at least fun, even if you don't like the music.

There were no full days of music at #tge24 due to mass gig cancellations. It was a waste of people's time and money. What's the plan to avoid chaos and empty schedules at #tge25? @thegreatescape

The first full day of music at #TGE24 is in the books! 🏖️ Day two is now underway! 👀

@NickyRR @thegreatescape I wish I had caught more of the Aussie guys this time. They are usually pretty fun.

[Simon @Simon99558240]

@NickyRR @thegreatescape Think more like unexpected empty slots, longer than expected gaps between bands, and last-minute cancellations. Even at the hallowed ground that is the hope +ruin!

[Simon @Simon99558240]

@Spag_bella @thegreatescape Glad it met your needs. It didn’t for us. You can't have well over a hundred bands cancel and it be business as usual. Some bands that had already played one set earlier bailed on their later sets. So it was not just the no-shows. I give it a 5/10 instead of the usual 7 or 8/10.

[Simon @Simon99558240]

@Spag_bella @thegreatescape C'mon! Were you really there?Double-sized queues, worse than usual over-crowding, last-minute cancellations, loads of people I wanted to see bailed, etc. Some really good stuff, and credit to those that performed. But I'm very disappointed as it's usually so much better.

[Simon @Simon99558240]

@thegreatescape People who paid for tickets for the terrible waste of money that was #tge24 should get a free ticket to #tge25. #tge24 was a chaotic failure due to last minute mass gig cancellations causing empty schedules. I've been going for at least a decade and 2024 was awful

[Simon @Simon99558240]

@thegreatescape How about you give 2024 ticket holders who had to endure an incomplete festival a free tickets to 2025? It's the very least you could do.

[Simon @Simon99558240]

@thegreatescape @hello_content @Frankowski @photosbychloeh How do we get our money back? You didn't nearly deliver what was promised.

@sa_hutchinson1 @snowdoniacheese Ordered cheese hamper 10 days ago. 10 days ago! Still not arrived. Safe to say they missed Christmas delivery. No reply to my emails for an update. What's going on @snowdoniacheese ? Does £55 not buy customer service nowadays?

[Simon @Simon99558240]

@sa_hutchinson1 @snowdoniacheese @snowdoniacheese seem to have let me down too. Next time I buy an overpriced cheese hamper as a gift, it will not be from these jokers. Life is too short for bad service.

[Simon @Simon99558240]

@snowdoniacheese Will order taken on 18 Dec arrive by Christmas?

[Simon @Simon99558240]

@Jacob_Rees_Mogg This guy has lost the plot

@PoliticsJOE_UK "Some" rough sleepers. Does this mean 41% of people think a mere handful of people chose this way of living? Regardless of the veracity of the assertion, it provides no grounds for a policy decision

[Simon @Simon99558240]

@thetrainline Still not working...

[Simon @Simon99558240]

@OfficialTriumph Could you please let me know the correct Triumph part number for an accessory pillion grab rail for a 2022 Triumph Speed Twin 1200. It's an awesome bike, but all that grunt means my pillion needs something more substantial than a strap to hold onto! Many thanks!

[Simon @Simon99558240]

@fredsirieix1 @DirectLine They're all at it... shop around around 3 weeks before your renewal date to reduce the pain a little.

[Simon @Simon99558240]

A cautionary tale

Gillian Keegan's department gave £1m from the schools' rebuilding budget in May to a firm where her husband Michael is a non-executive director...@DailyMirror

Dept says no conflict of interest..

Should Keegan just resign now?

Shambolic
