Even with my fancy quesha tent I fear the mornings Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What I've said above is what was recommended to her at the time (for future use - obviously waaaaaay too late to save her that time.) Right ok noted cheers! I may just get the factor 50 though for added caution, is it actually going to be a heatwave though? Or are we getting ahead of ourselves?

Those long drops will be full by Friday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course we're getting ahead of ourselves - that's kinda what we do! But I see no reason to risk ruining your festival for the sake of the price of a bottle of factor whatever-your-skin-needs.

Even if it's cloudy you can still burn so factor 50 won't harm you, but getting caught out in the sun could. Better to be safe than sorry!

It's that period from about 8.30 to 5pm that's going to be a killer. Particularly the afternoon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can get those foam water squirty things, probably more suitable, doubt the water's going to stay cold for that long though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SwedgeAntilles Posted June 17, 2017 Report Share Posted June 17, 2017 (edited) I spent 90 minutes max sitting in a beer garden this afternoon with sun block on and I've woken up after a power nap looking like the Red Skull. I'm going to need an adult at all times next week. Edited June 17, 2017 by SwedgeAntilles 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
