How much liquid are you taking?

[Zoo Music Girl]

Feel a lot better about my drinking reading some of these!

We come by coach and want to travel light so we will bring:

1 to 2 litres Captain Morgan spiced rum

5 or 6 pre-mixed cans of G and T or similar each, mainly for Wednesday 

I'm lucky enough these days to be able to spend more in the bars than I used to and from experience I know I'll always want cold pints in the day. Have taken cans of cider before and not drank them all and they're bloody heavy! 

In the evenings we just buy coke and mix with rum. Keeps us going a bit longer too with the caffeine and sugar!

There's some low quantities here, I'm always on 10 cans of beer or cider plus half a litre of spirits plus mixers every day

That's 22 litres of beer / cider

3 litres of spirits (extra 0.5L of hazelnut vodka for everyone's morning coffees)

5 litres of mixers

Grand total of precisely 30L.

1 bot gin

1 bot rum (both yet to be purchased probably Aldi gin though but)

Mixers and beer available on site and too heavy to carry especially as I am eschewing my trolley this year.

What is Aldi gin like?

Believe it's won a couple of awards/taste tests vs. other gins so pretty good it seems!

I'm not bringing a trolley. I'm gonna take some of those big blue Ikea bags and if carrying stuff gets to heavy, then I will drag the Ikea bags. I think it will work...

You'll wear the arse out of those bags in no time.

For the cost on site, I'd save yourself 5kg of ballache and ditch the mixers.

Meh, I do the same every year. I'm strong and I like the workout 

[stocky3000]

I have normally just gone with lager and or cider. Thinking of some gin this year where is the best place on site to buy tonic?

[FloorFiller]

Fucking off cans this year cause I just can't be arsed with the hassle so just going with two litres of rum and a litre of vodka. Maybe even an extra litre of something just to be sure.

BEAST.

[EighteenSixty7]

30 cans of Dark Fruits

1.5L of Bombay Sapphire

Getting a box of wine tomorrow/Monday

Got some preforms (test tube thingys) from work to separate the Gin out into smaller amounts, saves carrying bottles round every day.

Coming by coach, however booze is going down in mates camper.  Only downside is they're in the Bath & West Showground which will mean me setting up the camp and then take shuttle out there on wednesday to pick up booze and then queue with it.

15 x coors light (it was cheap and warm beer is shit no matter what)

12 x cider

1L russian standard vodka

0.7L Haig Club (on offer in tesco - £25 down to £15)

At this point im torn as wether to get more cans or maybe more spirits. I'm trying to work out how disappointing the warm beer/cider will be or if i'll get used to it.

 

edit: i would love to bring gin but its pretty inflexible as far as mixers are concerned.

Where is everyone getting the 500ml Desperados from? 

I can't seem to find it in any supermarket, would be ideal for me though as I love Despos and obviously can't take glass. 

[Futurism]

Way too Much..

I haven't had a drink in 2 weeks so my liver won't know what's hit it

I don't know what's a normal amount to Piss but can't say I've ever found it much of a problem no. I don't Piss in the bushes either for clarity
