- Hot showers. Honestly, nothing makes me feel better.
- £1 pints of Yeo Valley yoghurt (as mentioned above)
- Shade to doze under in the breeze for when your tent gets too hot in the morning.

Saunas! I usually spend a couple of hours in the morning and then again later in the day at one of the saunas at Glasto.  It's good to get away from the hustle and bustle of elsewhere at Glasto, in a very relaxed chilled atmosphere. Relaxing in a lovely sauna nude and also sunbathing nude on the lawn space.  Bliss!   For me, going to a festival(which involves camping there for a few days or more) there HAS to be a sauna onsite!

Those freshly-made, stone-oven-baked pizzas served opposite the Greenpeace stage - all washed down with ice cold hibiscus lemonade.

Washing my hair with a little bit of shampoo and a big bottle of water that's been left out in the sun to warm up a bit, then combing some leave-in conditioner through and letting it dry in the sun!!

(in 2007 I didn't wash my hair at all. In fact it was so cold I don't think I took my woolly hat off! In 2010 I came back with highlights it was so sunny!)

^^^ This. Those pizzas were awesome, and a really good price.

I assume from the Yeo Valley stall between the pyramid and other stage.  I love it as well.  I always get up early get a Q daily and a yoghurt whilst having a lovely wander through the festival site.

It is all about how you start the day.

I sleep in silk sheets and can come to and brew up and have a cuppa without leaving them untill I am good and ready. I don't get that even at home.

Silk sleeping bag liner.
Meths powered travel kettel.
Moning cuppa coffee with baileys for milk (and dunkies).
Water butt in the tent.
Radio with Worthy FM/radio Avalon playing out.

When I am good and ready, boil up another pint of water, as I have packed a Small bowl for a strip wash (particualr attention paid to the feet).

Fabric conditioner bottle (en suite).
