However I have just realised that the much derided American term fannypack is actually more appropriate than bumbag, considering hardly anyone would wear one hanging over their bum . . .

Fred Zepplin Posted April 25, 2019 Report Share Posted April 25, 2019 Put solar shower and ear defenders in my amazon shopping basket, still not get tickets yet so can’t buy. On the subject of ear defenders does anyone know if any brands are better than others, there are hundreds on amazon, will be for a 19 month old Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've bought some space blankets for my tent and a chillys water bottle. Going shopping for walking shoes this weekend. I've been targeted by these chillys bottles on social media. What's so good about them? They're canny expensive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're canny expensive. They keep water cool for ages (which will be necessary in this year's glasto heat wave), are leak proof and come in good colours. The price isn't too bad when you think about how much you'll use them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jyoung Posted April 27, 2019 Report Share Posted April 27, 2019 (edited) Took a trip to Go Outdoors and bought a new sleeping bag, sleeping mat and camping chair. There are some great savings to be had, especially if you have a Go Outdoors card. The OEX Roam 300 sleeping bag (retails at £60) is £39.99 with a card but in the sale today only for £26! Particularly happy with that! The Silentnight self inflating mat (retails at £70) is £35 with a card. It is 5cm thick but I tried it instore and it was very, very comfortable. MY back is going to be thanking me, come June! Then just a standard Freedom trail chair usually £9.99 but down to £6. Perfect for round camp. I've included the links incase anybody wants to take advantage of the offers. Edited April 27, 2019 by jyoung Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

barkley87 Posted April 27, 2019 Report Share Posted April 27, 2019 Made 'the list' of what to take, what I have already and what I still need to buy. Thankfully most of my stuff from previous years is still usable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beerqueen Posted April 27, 2019 Report Share Posted April 27, 2019 I had had a niggling thought in the back of my mind for few days and today I could ignore it no longer. I had paid my balance on 1st April and got my confirmation email BUT I realised I hadn't checked my bank statement. With a sick feeling in my stomach, I checked. Phew it was there. Never before have I been so happy to see a debit for £407.50. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
