Sorry if its already on here somewhere, i couldn't find it if it is. Whats the deal about going back to your car during the festival i.e keep lots of beer in the car, go and get what you need each morning...

Can you do that?

Any help is greatly appreciated!!! :lol:

Yes you can, but it may be a bit of a trek it could be over an hours round trip. You need to make sure that you have your ticket with you, and wrist band on your wrist, You will be given a pass out ticket as you leave site. You will need your wristband, ticket and pass out to regain entry to site.

Just to confirm , if you have your wristband and ticket , and the pass out they give you at the gate there

is no problem going back to your car.

We arrive Weds morning ! , and I usually leave about 20 cans in a freezer box with ice packs.

Friday or Saturday morning I am usually up for stretching my legs, so just wander back to the car

with an empty rucksack.

Its nice to get back to our camping area and unload a load of cold cans !

Having done this for the last five or so years , I have noticed plenty of people back at their cars , collecting stuff or just charging their phones up !

:lol:

I quite enjoy a little quiet stroll to the car at some point over the weekend, i find it relaxing to have a few minutes away and a doze to get myself all juiced up for the remainder of the onslaught. So I heartily recommend a trip back to the car.

I am more of a get everything in on Wednesday in two trips kind of girl. I just want to be in and settled and let the fun begin. Usually we all carry as much as possible then two people stay behind to put the tents up while the rest go back and get everything else.

By the time they are back the tents are up and all thats left to do is unpack and collect fire wood. Then sit back have a drink and watch the site fill up.

Don't forget that the weather can also play a huge part in whether or not it's worth returning to the car parks. In 2005, my other half decided to leave my wellies in the car as it was sunny when we arrived...needless to say, the trip/swim back to the car park on the Friday took AGES and was quite unpleasant! Make sure you take the 'cannot live without' type of essentials on your first trip, and you should be fine.

    • Another one from Sheffield DocFest this weekend, Earth Wind & Fire docu, directed by Questlove. Sensational archive footage, contributions from band members, family, plus a lot of very big fans (Stevie, Lionel, Flea, the Obamas) and a warts n all assessment of the genius / flawed human being that was Maurice White. Also, I never realised he started out as a jazz drummer with Ramsay Lewis. Well worth a watch.
    • In a 6,800-word Substack essay, external, the Clacton MP said "anti-white racism was embedded into the state", and that legislation aimed at equality was a form of "social cleansing"   .https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cdjkd4mp93zo   The privileged white c**t hasn’t got a clue what racism is.
