It's the opposite for me. Quite often i see something i like and i think 'oh, i'll come back for that later' and never do.

^^^^ that's me totally lol

[shoptildrop]

best thing I bought was a Shaun the sheep bag that went baaaa when you squeezed his nose, I was made up with that purchase especially when I didn't realize until 10hrs later that he made a noise when trying to stuff him in my backpack

worse thing not much as I'm the come back later and get it, but forget it crown lol

Yeahhhhh!  Mine lives in my festival bag

Yep, they're the ones! I got 5, so I had enough for a whole hand, but they've never been played with  

To be fair, they were sold by a stall raising money for a charity (can't recall which), and they were very reasonable, so I don't feel I really wasted my money. It's not like I drunkenly bought a massive Mexican hammock before getting home and remembering there aren't any trees in the garden to attach it to (a friend did this  )

Bought a candle powered boat at BDs and it worked great

 

has disappeared now though

Mine was one of those mexican style ponchos, hasn't seen the light of day all year.

Now on this I'm the opposite, I bought one and I use it all the time at home!  I'm going to unpick the sides so it can double up as a blanket, it just needs some poppers

I have an ice bong which has been gathering dust for years. It is merely an ornament officer. It is clearly unused.

At least one unworn t-shirt.

I left Blur to go and see The Black Eyed Peas in 2009 (I had a ticket for Blur @ Hyde Park the next week. Seemed reasonable at the time).

A pint of tuborg

One hot one in the early 90's I thought it would be a good idea (bear in mind I am king of the salad dodgers) to have some fresh fruit from one of the fruit stalls to combat the excesses of substance abuse from the previous night.  I chose a mango.... It wasn't ripe yet, but I carried on eating.... It was the most fibrous thing I had ever eaten.  I had mango floss firmly wedged between all my teeth, and looked rabid... Spent the following 2 day licking and sucking my teeth,. Couldn't get the stuff out,. It was hell and people keep telling me I had stuff in my teeth .... No shit!  You try finding dental floss or a toothpick at Glasto

Seeing this picture and the title of the thread reminds me of something which seemed like a good idea at the time, telling one of my naughty friends "I never say no to anything at Glastonbury"... 

...the first thing he passed me was a bottle of instant headache.

With poppers a mate and never satin no to anything I thought that story was going to go somewhere else entirely.

Jack white 2013 seemed like a great idea at the time

+1 for the candle powered boat camp. Pretty sure it's now languishing somewhere in my mother's attic.

Quote

Spur of the moment decision (fuelled by Old Speckled Hen!) to have a henna tattoo.  Half way through the heavens opened and the tattoo tent (opposite the bandstand) became packed with people sheltering from the rain.  Trying to protect a wet henna tattoo amongst a heaving throng of people only ended one way - what should have been The Who turned out more to look like Boris The Spider!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  Had to live with a big blue blob on my arm for weeks after!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I had a go once in the street when I was younger, it was a windy day and my hat blew off. I was chasing it down the street while my head was pounding like fuck. I caught it in the end but I looked a right wally. Lesson learnt for me
