What have you done today to get ready for Glastonbury?

[Pinhead]

Over the years I have gradually whittled down what I take to the bare essentials. Then that lot is stored in a space beneath my bed. All I have to do is open it up each year and check anything has not deteriorated or needs replacing and so forth. Might make a few additions this year however to make life easier and because I'm doing it solo and can't necessarily rely on mates to have remembered to bring things.

Don't tend to both preparing too much until the week before, sometimes the weekend before these days - other than the homebrew, which was finished a couple of weeks ago. Else most other things are consumables which are best bought in a run to Blacks camping or the supermarket.

I lost out on a camera case on eBay by 50p!! Other than that, I'm pretty much ready to go

[coma girl]

Will order my trolley tomorrow when they should be back in stock. Get paid a week on Friday so will get my booze that weekend. I also have a weekend away for the Stone Roses in the middle of June so will need to try and budget sensibly for all this, luckily I already have my Glasto spending money put aside.

My new blow up bed came through the post today. Way bigger and heavier than Amazon suggested it was!!! Quite comfy and quick to blow up tho. 3 out of 5 stars lol

[harty_devon]

purchased a sleeping pod as recommended on here and have spent the last year working on my fancy dress crazy suit , wellies and top hat , obviously a bit at a time !! Also have made my skittles and werthers vodka , and purchased a battery pack to make sure my phone stays charged . this weekend will be mending and waterproofing tent weather permiting !!

[whisty]

Putting my tent up as a practice and see what needs repairing.

[Windward]

Capri Suns! The best hangover cure for a festival.

[jenw]

Bought a new tent after our trusty old one gave up the ghost a couple of years back.

Booked hotel for way there and back cos I don't want to drive all the way from Edinburgh in one go (lazy - yup!)

Will book car hire on Friday when I get paid

Picked up ticket from the post office today

Can't wait now it feels so close......

[Krazypinkminx]

:-) errrrrrrrm mocked packed again, wanna see my gear?

[Krazypinkminx]

Just ordered a micro sim adapter so I can use my sim in my cheapo festival phone and now I'm going to take all of the bits I bought from asda the other day out of their packaging because it looks and weighs far too much at the moment.

[Krazypinkminx]

All my stuff.... Some is shared, some I may not take, some is missing ie underware, pillow, booze, trolley and I have not done a sort through yet to decide what I dont need.......

[RobertProsineckisLighter]

What is that third from the left bottom row?

[Krazypinkminx]

Lol, its straws in a toothbrush holder!!! I have really sensitive teeth so are essential

[caroldecker]

Today I have been stalking the weather thread and weather websites.

I think i may well be doing the same thing for the next few weeks.

[Chimps in Balaclavas]

Lol I'm one of those last minute people, I run round town buying Christmas presents on Christmas eve. Glasto packing will be no different, although I've started to buy a few nic-nacs here and there. I won't have a pile like that though until the Tuesday!

Help me out with that recommendation...what the heck is a sleeping pod? Back to the Future talk here!

[dixietheduck]

Today I'll check flight prices far too many times in the hope that they've gone down..knowing full well that they wont have. As I have done every day since I got tickets!

Also I'll booking travel back from the festival to London and ordering a new UK festival phone, and probably looking at, and adding to, the list of camping stuff to buy when we get to England.

So excited!

[IamChappu]

Read this forum and been listening to my Spotify playlist to pick out some possibilites from all those unknown acts.

Go camping all the time in our Bongo so all our stuff is always ready to go other than clothes, toiletries, food and drink. Will pick up my vodka and choose its flavouring in the next week....getting excited!

[JoeyT]

Ordered this yesterday -

http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B0063AAIRG/ref=s9_simh_gw_p23_d0_i2?pf_rd_m=A3P5ROKL5A1OLE&pf_rd_s=center-2&pf_rd_r=018PC9H1J1QSHPVWVRQR&pf_rd_t=101&pf_rd_p=358549767&pf_rd_i=468294

Great reviews and works with an Iphone 5.

[_jojo_]

. Where did you get your adaptor? Just got a new phone and it has a micro sim, wanna take my HTC desire so need an adaptor

[carlosj]

Eye up the prices of wine boxes and cans of beer, and toy with the idea of getting striped tarpaulins for around the campervan awning.

Not shopping yet, as I'll drink the booze, but it will come together on the weekend before...

[monkey1989]

I bought 4 green summer plastic beakers for 71p at Tesco today , that is the sum of what I have done so far :/

[secondtimelucky]

Bought a cup for my drink

Best not put it down near any kids!

[Krazypinkminx]

I ordered this one that comes with a micro sim aswell as the adapter. http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B005FHGT30/ref=oh_details_o01_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 For only 60p it's worth a try seeing as a standard sim from where i work is 50p-£1 anyway, plus I'd have to buy credit

[jamiejc]

I bought a new day bag to keep my camera, beverages and more... Just to have by my alcohol, Waiting for my Ticket grrr... Then all systems are go........

[Northernsoul45]
