Top Five Glasto Tips - things you always do/take

[LondonTom]

Before you pack line your rucksack with a strong bin liner, then pack all your clothes and seal the bin liner before closing the top of the rucksack. We all know it isn't going to rain no way jose but there is just a micro chance that we are all wrong. Nothing worse than unpacking and finding all your clothes are soaked!

My tips would be,

1. Instead of decanting spirits into plastic bottles get the Capri Sun with the lids on and pour your spirits into them, 2 for each day should do. They take up less space in your bag and can fit into pockets. You could also freeze them and when they start to melt you will have a nice cool drink. Also a shot glass is similar to a pub measure if you want to pace yourself drink wise. And a hard plastic picnic glass is also very handy.

2. If its a really wet year put sandwich bags over your socks before you put your boots on, so if your boots do happen to let water in your feet are still dry.

3. Clip on battery fan, we all know its going to be a scorcher so this will help keep your tent cool at night, of you could even clip it onto the brim of you hat. http://www.iosss.com/shopping/review.asp?prod=2631

4. Evian face spritz, you can buy it in Boots for a few pounds, keeps you refreshed if you are in a big crowd or there is no water around to splash your face.

5. Gloves, if the weather is cold/raining your hands get freezing holding onto your drink.

I actually DID forget our tent going to Electric Picnic a few years ago. Was half way to the festival when I realised. My missus was NOT impressed.

A word to the wise, don't go to a wedding in Ibiza the monday before a festival and stay out all night/the next day on a bender.

dont know if anybody has seen these but we had them last year and wes great, fit easily into a pocket or bag without taking up the space of a full size loo roll, and you can seal them up

just thought they might be better than the pocket pack tissues.
