adsnads86 Posted August 20, 2010 Report Share Posted August 20, 2010 a little tip for all those who buy the stagetimes that hang round your neck. take the card off the metal thing, get some electrical insulating tape, tear off a small piece and wrap it over the edge coving both sides of the hole. do this to all the sheets, the put it back on the metal thing. ive been doin it for years now and never lost a pge. beforehand all you need is to spil a beer on it and the hole would rip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrtourette Posted August 20, 2010 Report Share Posted August 20, 2010 Looking at these lists there's one basic error - loo roll. I'd definitely recommed taking the handy-size packs of tissues instead. Les of a target for idiots when walking to the loo in the morning and easy to carry a pack in the arena in case of emergencies. Also bin-bags and wet wipes are very handy, and a secret stash of pop tarts always does me proud. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave The Hedgehog Posted August 20, 2010 Report Share Posted August 20, 2010 (edited) Whenever I got my tickets in March, I started planning on what to take with me instantly and got bits and pieces as I went along right up until about 7 or 8 days ago. When I looked at all of the shit I had, I laid all of it out on my living room floor and the thing that struck me was just how much excess crap there was - food, mostly. So I packed it all away in plastic bags and I discovered that for Leeds alone I would be taking 9 giant bin bags full of crap. I then had the realisation that maybe, JUST MAYBE, I am going over-prepared. So I condensed it down into 3 medium-size boxes that'll be carried on a trolley (wise investment too) and cut out all the shit I didn't really need. Here's what I'm taking (for 2 people): Tent Sleeping Bags Pillows Airbed Pegs Windbreak Duck tape 2 x disposable barbecues 2 x bucket barbecues with solid fuel disks Various tins of food - beans mostly Pot noodles Eggs Milk Vegetable oil Snacks - crisps, mini cheddars, cookies Cool box containing barbecue food for wednesday and some cold beers Hexi burner and tablets Instant coffee and hot chocolate Lighter and matches First aid kit (over the counter drugs, analgesics, plasters, etc) Portable phone charger Baby wipes Disposable plates, cups and cutlery Batteries Phone Camera Fold away chairs Camping pots and pans Money Alcohol (Jagermeister, 36 x 440ml cans of Carling and Grant's whiskey - Grant's and Jagermeister in hot drink containers) Bin bags Clothes Toilet roll Wash kit and toileteries Hand sanitiser Room de-odouriser or air freshener Money 2 x luggage trolleys ...and a nice big smile. Not taking wellies because I cannot walk in them. Instead I'm taking my trust old walking shoes because they're sturdy, strong, waterproof, comfortable, light-weight and extremely well made. If the mud is deep then I'll just take some string and tie some bin bags up to my knees. Additionally, most of the stuff I'm taking fits into 3 medium size storage boxes. Haven't weighed it all but between 2 people we'll manage it easily. Edited August 20, 2010 by Dave The Hedgehog Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave The Hedgehog Posted August 20, 2010 Report Share Posted August 20, 2010 If you really think about it, a lot of the long lists are just people itemising everything. If I didn't itemise it would be: Camping equipment Food Alcohol Clothes Toiletries Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave The Hedgehog Posted August 21, 2010 Report Share Posted August 21, 2010 Dude, you're going to a festival and you're taking hand sanitiser, hot chocolate and air freshener? Is this what you normally take? Times must have changed since the days that I camped, I remember brushing my teeth using Fosters on more than one occasion.

rexclark Posted August 22, 2010 Report Share Posted August 22, 2010 If you have a poundland nearby, they should have blowup pillows there, which take up hardly any space and are surprisingly comfortable. Or try a loaf of bread, it moulds to your head and is a tasty treat in the morning. Or a bag of wine, though this will get less comfortable the more you drink it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rogerbin Posted October 19, 2010 Report Share Posted October 19, 2010 You will also want(Kaufen WOW Gold) peripherals that do their job passably well, which means you might want to invest in multi-button mice. I highly recommend the Razer Naga, but basically any mouse that has more buttons than your basic two-button mouse should already help you access spells much easier than your(RS Gold) keyboard. Likewise, you'll want a responsive keyboard that allows you to hit all the necessary buttons very easily. This means your(Final Fantasy Gil) most important spells should be within reasonable reach of your keyboard fingers (e.g., for smaller hands, keys 7 to = will be inconvenient). I went through a look a gaming hardware in a series of posts that took a look at options for gaming.If you need any help or more information about Buy WOW Gold during this sales promotion, please contact us instantly!
