If you have enough spare room in your car, then I would always recommend a wheelbarrow. Not least because you might have one sitting around in your garden, and they lap up the mud

The wheelbarrow id the most important thing I take, apart from the beer and hob nobs of course.

...And the ticket

I got one of these for reading:

works wonders!! Had my icarus 500, both our backpacks full of clothes/beer etc as we was going by public transport! Worked a charm just an bit awkward to carry up stairs etc, if your going by public transport as the bottom plate bit doesn't come out far enough to get a grip. (Might need to adjust this, but i am learning to drive soon anyway :D)

Having seen a variety of carrying equipment over the years....

I got myself a 2nd hand pram off ebay; £5.50 - bargain.

It's got 4 x chunky pneumatic wheels - all stearable and removable, designed for multi terrain, German built!

Load the carry cot and the base rack with all your stuff, just use a couple of bungy straps to secure.

For 2 of us it does mean a 2nd journey from car park but it was brilliant at Glasto last year. There was almost a sense of gloating / smugness at pushing with one hand with a beer in the other :)

After seeing Boilerman's very comfortable camping set up at Bearded Theory I have been considering his point about getting a nice standing height tent, with a trolley to carry it. I bottled out of buying a £50 5 man tent last week, but I am seriously considering a trolley.

So I am going to keep any eye on all suggestions.

Like the ones in the efestivals shop, but a cheaper option might be a sack trolley from B&Q, with pneumatic wheels, for around £25.

Any opinions, recommendations?

Still on my 4 wheeler from 2 years ago... been sat in the garden the whole time and still fresh as a daisy. I do laugh at people who bring those 2 wheel parcel trolleys and spill their shit everywhere... just get a 4 wheel flatbed!

    • So, that Survation poll...Reform have replaced the Tories as the main right party, and Restore are where Reform used to be as the fringe extreme right party gaining support. Grim. What happened to one nation liberal tories?
