Essential things to take to Glasto

[Crazyfool01]

Good idea, but it's a bit of a beast isn't it? Does one of them fit in a normal car, or do you take an estate/van...?

EDIT: Or even, duh, go by bike I guess...?

[Yoghurt on a Stick]

I guess a defibrilator could come in handy.

[dan05delaney]

A ticket and tent could be essential too

I've found having my lawyer's phone number close by is always a good thing.

I bag clothes up into days, so have t shirt, socks, trousers, undies bundle together.

[TheNewUnion]

Yep, been ziplock bagging a set of clothes per day for a couple of festivals now. Makes organising yourself in a morning so much easier. Can even just grab the bag and go for a shower if the mood takes you

Immodium, a few years ago a friend of mine had the wildies - it practically ruined his weekend. Since then ive always took precautions!!!!!

What showers do you use?

Wonderful piece of kit

In relation to the showers: where do you use the shower?

I mean I'd feel comfortable using it in a nice secluded campsite in the countryside but in front of thousands of people? (assuming you wear underwear/bikini whatever)

And tents are particularly close so even if you have some good space wouldn't your neighbours still be within meters?

I don't know I think maybe I'm a prude (fairplay to those who do though, I know that I'd kill for a shower when camping)

[Spindles]

I make use of the greenpeace showers during the quiet times in the afternoon, when you can both walk straight in and also air drying in the sun (within limits for modesty, of course, it's not like I'm walking round conkers out) is a great way to refresh yourself before the evening begins.

Piltonpoppet is right as well, these days the tents are so packed together in most of the site I can't imagine how easy it would be, I was in Dairy for the last festival and even as far off the beaten track as that we were packed together like sardines in a can.

any other essentials come to mind? worth a bump this thread.......

[liz lemon]

One for the ladies and not an essential, but anyway. If you spot a perfume sample you like in a magazine, the ones that are properly sealed with a little mini wet wipe thing covered in the perfume, cut it out and keep it! I now have three perfumes I really like, that I can bring with me to use on three different days, each taking up no more space than a business card.
