  1. After two days at Glastonbury: “I’m at Glassss… Galsun…. I’m at a festival…”

  2. Have you ever encountered a simpleton who pronounces ‘brie’ so that it rhymes with ‘spy’? This guide would be lost on them.

    I met one once nearly 20 years ago and I still can’t help wondering what other things he gets wrong.

  3. Brits could use either pronunciation depending on person, region, etc. 

  4. Or if you’re regional then you’ll still call it Pilton, because that’s where it is.

    It winds me up when TV and Radio presenters shout “We’re in Glastonbury!”. No, you’re not.

  5. Like that movie Bried where a soldier gets bried alive in Afghanistan and he tries to give his location to the US army, but fails and ultimately gets bried

  6. Heard Trevor Noah make this exact joke at his show the other day.

    Cheese not fruit!

  7. I always thought it was ‘bury’ as in ‘bury the lede’

  8. Pronounced ‘OK yah’ or ‘Tristan forgot the Pimms’.

  9. Raspberries aren’t berries though …?

    So the American description would be “Glastondroopsack”

    Sooooo

    🇬🇧 = Glastontallegio…?

    🇺🇸 = Glastondroopsack….?

  10. Glaston-beret (the hat)

    Maybe I pronounce brie differently but “glaston-brie” sounds childish

  11. Glastoncheese, not Glastonfruit. Wow, have I been saying it wrong.

  12. Glaston Bree.

    naw, Is it fuck

    People in the UK say Glaston-burry/berry/brae even the English

    Source listen to any advertisement for it or ask a person who is there from our land what it’s called and you will be shocked, but not really because this is bait

  13. 🔪✂️👹 – Zoë Ball today.

    She must’ve been to the rock-gargling tent because you get healthier vocal cords in morgues.
