stuwilky Posted November 6, 2018 Report Share Posted November 6, 2018 (edited) I have an oven in my camper. Ive always wanted to do a baked camembert at a festival (for no logical reason I can think of!) I also have some lovely port. This sounds like a lovely idea!!!

tigertoo Posted November 6, 2018 Report Share Posted November 6, 2018 Can I join you if I bring some St Agur or Shepherd's purse Yorkshire Blue ?...... I should be able to shoe horn some into my campervan fridge. oh and I rather like a drop of Madeira in my hip flask ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's always a logical reason to bake a Camembert at a festival, perfect for breakfast with crispy bacon and eggs and a warmed up crusty french bread.

All washed down with some chilled bucks fizz, followed shortly after by 8 cans of export, a box of Westons cider and a litre of red wine , and that's just the Tuesday morning, we know how to live in the campervan fields!!!

Ayrshire Chris Posted November 9, 2018 Report Share Posted November 9, 2018 If you have to leave the site, and I would never do that, it’s better to head to Shepton Mallet. Big Tesco there. But it Glastonbury, it’s worth that bit extra cash to experienced the event. Fat too much time wasted leaving and returning to the site Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beerqueen Posted November 11, 2018 Report Share Posted November 11, 2018 Mmmmmm cheese. But going by coach so that ain't happening. But Bearded Theory, going by campervan so yes, inspired idea. And port in a hipflask - yes, yes, yes! Especially if a little chilly! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wasn't that hard to book a table, we just popped in on the way to Pallet and booked for later that eve. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We went along this year not realising you had to book so missed out. It just seems wrong to book anything at a festival, I don't want to be tied down to being in a certain place at a certain time - I never know where I might be! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grumpyhack Posted November 12, 2018 Report Share Posted November 12, 2018 Cheese yes but more importantly toast. Marmalade on toast, cheese on toast, beans on toast or just toast, beats bread and butter any day. One of these https://www.gooutdoors.co.uk/toaster-folding-4-slice-p152190?gclid=EAIaIQobChMIkOKeiejP3gIV7rvtCh34Tga2EAQYASABEgJsjfD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds will be the best couple of quid you spend. Folds flat to the size of a dinner plate, weighs virtually nothing and just sits on top of your gas stove. All that said, there's so much to see and do at Glastonbury that I wouldn't want to go off site. Have a decent breakfast, toast and and coffee and coffee or hot chocolate at night and the rest of the food you can get on site at reasonable prices, particularly in the Green Fields or the Hare Krishna tent.

Ive read somewhere there’s a shuttle bus that will take you to and from town if you wanna stock up on your food/drink. Is that true? And if so, does it run on Wednesday and Thursday? Would be ideal for me, as I’m traveling with national express and I’ve got very little hope for being able to bring plenty of drink and soft drinks to last me for a while. Thanks. Jay. have you thought about seeing anyone who may be driving down lives near you would consider taking a bag for you in their car? you could meet up with them and get it out of the car. give them some money for petrol. there are plenty of friendly folk around here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mich1268 Posted January 11, 2019 Report Share Posted January 11, 2019 My first time in CV fields. I normally bring smoked mackerel pate and quail's eggs and other stupidly posh buffet food. Can I come to the cheese fest with these? or is it a strict cheese only policy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bags73 Posted January 24, 2019 Report Share Posted January 24, 2019 If you're genuinely skint I recommend the Hare Krishna tent that does free meals. I've not used it for a few years but when I have it's been alright. My wife ate all her meals there in 95 when she had no money. It's not amazing quality but it's free so no complaints from me.
