Things i have taken to glasto and never used:

[Jules007]

I was one of many who camped at the bottom of pennards during the epic rain of 2005.

Two glasto virgins I met on a lift sharing website camped next to me.

As I finally got up at 10am on that Fri morning, floating in my tent on a blow up bed :-/ ........I noticed my new mates paperback novels floating around in the muddy water.

Not sure what they expected if they thought they were going to get a bit of reading in!

Brilliant!!

We're on page 4 of this thread and no-one has put 'hair straighteners' yet. Disappointed...

Wild lettuce. Slightly contrary to the thread title, I did actually use it once but then never used it again. Other than the sourcing of it, there's nothing wild about it.

In 2010, my first year, I insisted on taking a bag of logs for the camp fire. They stayed in the car boot and got taken home because after 3 trips in baking sun, no way was I going back to the car again!

Gaffer tape. Not sure why I even bring it. I think I suffer from paranoia where gaffer tape is concerned. I have a feeling that if I don't bring it bad things will happen.

A first Aid Kit - thankfully.

on the subject of cereal bars, I take a plastic bowl and a pack of cereal and buy a pint of milk from the tractor each morning.

Man this is sooo me, I even take it on hols, (that is abroad on an airoplane)

My advice to check the tent in advance having been ignored, my daughter phoned me up on Wed afternoon whilst I was still at home.... "Dad, where's the tent poles?"....errr..."in the garage where you left them" I replied. By the time I delivered them on Thursday there was nowhere nearby to pitch it, so it stayed in the bag....

[_jojo_]

once after a nasty off on an MTB I used it to "bandage" a severely gashed ankle. Worked, but fucking hurt taking it of at A&E afterwards.

That's not unusual

I pack cereal bars and always eat them, but they never give me enough energy so I end up just buying breakfast anyway.

I take a pack of nutrigrains and usually eat them. They're good for when back at camp feeling peckish and give a bit of slow release energy.
