What have you done today to get ready for Glastonbury 2019?

[gigpusher]

I've bought some nice new reusable coffee mugs. I've been meaning to get a new one anyway but decided to bring them to Glastonbury for our morning coffee.

Finally tested out my Quechua tent that I bought 6 months ago, easy and pretty great. Hoping it’s a doddle to pack away.

Bit boring but needed a new sleeping bag ?

try looking at sleeping pods ... they give a little more wiggle room than the traditional bag

Bought couple of stainless steel water bottles from Mountain Warehouse, just in time for stocking up on alcoholic beverages.

Was looking at great suggestions of infusions on this forum, I wish I could hack vodka, but that would be the end of me ? Just gonna stock up on mixers for gin, amaretto and jd in co-op on site on Wednesday.

Tomorrow, I’m going for a walk in Lakes to start breaking my walking boots in. Probably left it a tad too late, but will be wearing them when doing chores around the house too ?

Gone for the worm like option. I do a lot of outdoor stuff and need a bag that compacts well.

replaced all the lights in my caravan with LEDs..... nice.

Also sorted out everything except clothing and footwear so pretty much good to go!

Read Tort's FAQ again. Always something in there I've forgotten. It's just exciting reading it anyway.

Great line in there

As the days pass by, each person becomes less defined by any differences we have in the outside world, and feel as one, as part of the fabric of the festival.

[shuttlep]

almost finished this bad boy, just trying to figure out how much more camp I can add to it.

[gigpusher]

Today I am going to sort through the toiletries and first aid bag that I usually bring to Glastonbury to see what we still have and what we need to buy. I'm putting this here to make me do it.
