Amii Posted June 22, 2014 Report Share Posted June 22, 2014 (edited) Well tonight I'm getting ready by rehearsing every detail of the festival in my head, when really I'm meant to be asleep. So much for resting before it starts.... Currently engaged in a solo mental debate about whether I travel down at 6am with friends, or 4am solo, in order to get the best queue position....

evilduck Posted June 23, 2014 Report Share Posted June 23, 2014 I've bought everything I need and now all my stuff is in piles on my bedroom floor. Packing tonight, hopefully it all goes in! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drewsstrat Posted June 23, 2014 Report Share Posted June 23, 2014 I packed yesterday , but keep finding that I have left things out. Sunglasses, second camera, clashfinder, sandals. Need to repack! This morning was a day off for me, and I've developed grulling stomach. I think it's probably excitement related, as I often get (as well as tension headaches) prior to GLASTO or big holidays. It reminded me to pack the ranatidine so not all negative. Quick break now watching IOW festival (travis good, nothing else to note) and then back into action, and on with the shorts I think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bisque Posted June 23, 2014 Report Share Posted June 23, 2014 Unpacked my bag & wrapped all my clothes in plastic bags (will be used for tent rubbish or the journey home). Sony Ericsson charger is failing to work so pre-charging it using AA batteries which is taking an age. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
