Lisa: Hey, Josh! Did you manage to get tickets for Glastonbury Festival?

Josh: Hi, Lisa, I'm glad you phoned. You won't believe how lucky I was—the tickets sold out in 20 minutes! Yet I got tickets for both of us!

Lisa: Amazing! When does it start?

Josh: It starts next Saturday, 24 June and lasts for five days.

Lisa: OK, so we'll need to stay there for four nights. Shall we book a hotel?

Josh: I'm not sure. The hotels are quite far from the festival site, so I suggest we bring our tents.

Lisa: That's a good idea! How do we get to the festival?

Josh: We can take a train from London Paddington to Castle Cary, which costs £ 70.40. There is a direct train leaving at 9:00 am. When we arrive, we can take the free bus from the station to the festival site. It runs from 10:00 am, and the last bus leaves for the festival site at 10:30 pm.

Lisa: How about taking a coach to Castle Cary? I'll probably take longer, but it'll be cheaper.

Josh: That's true. Let me check... Yes, it's less than half the price—only £ 30. OK, let's meet at London Victoria at 5:00 am next Saturday. There is a coach leaving at 5:30 am.

Lisa: That's really early, but no problem! Should I bring an umbrella? And how about bringing some food with us?

Josh: I think a rain jacket would be better. Umbrellas block other people's view of the stage. And there'll be plenty of places to buy food at the festival site. I'm sure we'll have lots of choices.

Lisa: Great! See you on Saturday!
