Bad bad bad, well overshot on the weight there Id say.

[Jacko450]

Big pneumatic tyres that have been pumped up and it can hold quite alot

[STEatT]

Yeah does look a good old trolley that!

Out of interest how far is the walk from carpark to generel camp?

[STEatT]

I think it depends when you get there, the earlier you get there the closer you will be. They've said on the FB page the drop off point is 15 minutes or slightly quicker up hill from the queue but it was nothing like that at all in 2010.

Just a small question of the lineup, i'm not massively accustomed to the majority of the lineup but will be going on the Saturday or Sunday and hoping to see Utah Saints, Spector, Feeder, Tribes, James, King Charles and my friends band Vinyl Jacket who are on Calling Out and I would recommend people go see provided there are no clashes. Was just wondering if there is anyone lower down on the bill that could be recommended particularly maybe an acoustic artist in the Ed Sheeran sort of mould. Anyway any tips on who to head over and see would be great!

If anyone needs any last minute camping supplies head to your nearest Sports Direct, looks like they've got a sale on the go.

Picked up a camping pillow, foot pump, torch and a couple of bottles of the medium size Campingaz for less than a tenner.

[ramragon]

This one http://www.diy.com/n...83#BVRRWidgetID Each wheel is advised to hold 136kg each and the instructions say load onto it 200kg maximum, i've estimated there will be 60kg on there and theres a plank of wood on the bottom so the first two crates didn't tip over

I don't think Mr Leftwich will be playing the left hand side of the real ale tent

Although stranger things have happened ...

So to clarify, the forum meet-up I know about and will be attending is Friday 2pm real ale tent.

[Flaminglippy]

Catfish and The Bottlemen are on at 8pm apparently...

Any idea why if coming from the North I need to travel on down to J39 then double back up through Shap?

I want to nip into Morrisons in Penrith which I would then join the A6 and travel the 5 miles down the road to the site.

But the website says I need to go down the M6 to J39 and then double back? This will add another 16 miles and 20 minutes onto my journey.

Enjoy your Thursday guys, wish we had got sorted for getting onsite on earlier, it'd be good if somebody could give us the heads up on the forum about what to expect. Weather forecast looks to be improving very slightly every time I look at the BBC site, so I'm cautiously optimistic.

Hopefully see some of you at the Friday meet, 2pm left hand side of the Real Ale bar, provided the tent pitching goes to plan (we had a deer shit / thistle problem last year..)

Do we go with our forum names, or do I have a load of proper names to learn? (might be difficult after getting stuck into the Kendale)

Yeah I will stick to using my forum name, but you can drop the ™ if you like

[Mr_Grump]

Stay with forum names I reckon...if nothing else it will piss my missus off a treat!
