Hi Hayley,
I'm Mitesh from London, also a Reading virgin, coming solo and in the alpha team. So we already have something in common.
Hopefully we can get to know each other before the big weekend. That way your not as nervous when you arrive.
I' still need to work out how I'm going to get there and back ....
Hi, I'm another alpha recruit, been to reading lots of times before but never as a volunteer, so it'll all be new to me too. I'm also on my own, name's Steve, travelling down from Essex. What time are you planning on getting there?
I'm driving from Surrey, hopefully will arrive Tuesday at12ish....if I don't get too lost!! When are you planning to arrive? Where in London are you Mitesh?
Hayley,
I'm on Alpha team, first shift is a evening on wednesday but I didn't think we needed to be there until the Wednesday. Is that correct?
I live in North West London, a place called Harrow.
I
I think that's right, I just fancy getting there early.
I'll probably head down early on the Wednesday, got two kids so am always up and about at around 6am. Yes, you can arrive anytime from Tuesday midday though, you'll have to save us a space Hayley, although you'll have got to know everyone by the time I get down there lol.

Sorry, stupid phone - double posting! P.S I think us Alpha crew are definitely the friendliest, haven't heard from any of the other teams yet!
I agree we do seem the friendliest bunch, baker shake how you getting down on Wednesday and where you travelling from.
Driving down, leaving Essex about 8.30ish I think, depend on how organised I am getting stuff ready beforehand!
Ok cool I'm trying to hitch a ride if anyone can offer a spare seat. I'm happy to pay towards petrol and provide priceless entertainment there and back.
Added you on fb and sent you a message Mitesh, shoud be ok to offer you a lift though. Will sort details out on fb and arrange when and where!
Wish u guys were coming Tuesday!
Hayley like baker shake said earlier save us a spot next to you if possible. Be good to be near each other
Need to look at when we're going to get there, as looking at shifts we'll need to go to the 11.00 briefing! Could mean an early start on the Wednesday, or travelling down on the Tuesday perhaps?
I'm happy to do a early leave on the Wednesday or leaving late Tuesday, as I can't get the day off work on the Tuesday.
No problem Mitesh, will chat on fb, thanks :)
Hi everyone!
Im on Alpha too, been to Reading twice before, this is first time as a volunteer. Will probably get there for 12ish on the tuesday as it will take me all day to put my tent up!
Anyone else going to be there??
