Just realised I asked this in another thread but this seems more appropriate. Will I need to decant cans into plastic bottles or will I may ok getting in with crates? Also how likely am I to be ID'd at the entrance (I know it's likely at the bars)

bottle or two of rum

few bottles of vodka

bottle of kaluha (to make white russians)

bottle or two of gin

maybe whisky or something similar

Just bring spirits, beer is all bought from the bars.

18 pint bag-in-a-box of Boondoggle, which won't last past Thursday lunchtime. There are two of us!

Numerous ales and ciders from many bars will also be consumed.

(I might put a bottle of reasonable scotch or rum in a plastic bottle too, but don't tell anyone)

I generally take Koppaberg Pear cans x2 crates for the queue/ general carrying around. They taste okay warm, are small and aren't in glass.

Then some form of flavoured vodka (1L), buy mixers there and a bottle of Malibu to Glasto taste like holidays!

In 2011 we were drinking double JD & cokes (WITH ICE!) for £5-6 in the naughty corner somewhere, so it's not that expensive in some places if you can't be bothered lugging it around!

Yeah, we usually do a run back to the car on the Wednesday to get the rest of the booze. We do it from the point if view of not being able to carry it all in one go. But if its from a security/space point of view then just store it in the free lock ups, much easier than treking back to the car.

    • Interesting to read. It's mostly why we stopped going a few years back even though it's the nearest big festival to home. The post-exams timing and location makes it a rites of passage first festival for people in a big area. Understandably that leads to a bit of giddiness. Think lineup would need to be a lot more my cup of tea to be enticed back. Friends who are there are having a good time tho and no rain is a good thing for up there.
    • I honestly didn't know it had, I still thought it was where the view overlooked the lake and view.   I think my decision not to attend this year at least was justified. Biffy was the big draw but after Finsbury I knew they wouldn't play what I want to hear again and well work also got in the way. Believed interesting to hear if Libertines were any good as they were also a pull but Sunday did nothing for me really with all my acts on Friday and Saturday.
