Thats a nice tent! A few of my mates have bought the lidl Crivit 4 man dome... A bargain at £35. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shoptildrop Posted May 14, 2019 Report Share Posted May 14, 2019 Looking forward to going to Bearded for my 2nd year Here's hoping the weather stays dry (although I didn't think last year was too bad apart from that electric storm that scared the hell out of me!!) I've even gone through the beer list and added tasting notes so know what to ask for/might like (as not a massive beer drinker but like to try stuff) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've even gone through the beer list and added tasting notes so know what to ask for/might like (as not a massive beer drinker but like to try stuff) I was in the CV field and after a few late nights since Weds slept through it. However for friends in the field there where differing outcomes. One got male got scared so went and camped in the car , one was really scared but did not dare leave her tent so had to ride it out. One had dropped one so could not give a F**K about the storm and sort of revelled in it and then fell into the tent and ripped it and one was pretty narked and wet as said partner would not shut up all night and they spent hours getting damp in ripped tent. Others were pleased that the storm was loud enough to drown out a mates snoring ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

generationgav Posted May 15, 2019 Report Share Posted May 15, 2019 Any tips on first camping festival with a toddler (16 months old) We're pretty chilled overall and don't expect to see everything and everybody we want to, but would really love to see Suede! Our 4th BT, but 1st ever festival with a toddler. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nobody Interesting Posted May 15, 2019 Report Share Posted May 15, 2019 We are so looking forward to this - it has been a long wait since our last festival at the end of September and BT is the start of summer for us ? Best start to look at packing cos we have moved house and all the festival stuff is still in boxes........................ the drink is sorted and ready though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not really dude, but me pals bought their twins last year, different experience, but they still had an ace time, camped in family camping, but we'd hang out with them in the day, night times were different. they used to stay out as late as they could 35 minutes ago, Nobody Interesting said: We are so looking forward to this - it has been a long wait since our last festival at the end of September and BT is the start of summer for us ?
