Take those extra rugs and woolly socks / or ensure beer jacket is at optimal temperature. I think it will be the same this year. Yeah i always find BT is cold at night, beer jacket is always at optimal temp too... got not interest in work today, need 4pm to hurry the hell up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is exactly what I did in 2019. Lined long trousers and a M&S rug! Top service from a top team 👏🏾😎 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really don't remember 2019 being cold but that might be more to do with my memory (and I was staying in a campervan). I probably spent quite a lot of time in the Maui Waui tent which would have helped as well. The coldest I have ever been at a festival was in 2020 (yes, I managed to camp at a festival in 2020!) when I went to Beardy Folk. It's up in the South Shropshire hills and I swear it is 10 degrees lower temperature up there than at ground level. Not helped by the fact you were meant to stay sitting in your designated circle and the wind was blowing the rain horizontally. Some of the acts said that they were having difficulty playing as their hands were too cold. Me and my husband had the gear on that we had bought to go skiing in Canada when it was -25 and my friend had the gear on that she had bought for an Antarctic trip! So, so cold.

kingbadger Posted May 25, 2022 Report Share Posted May 25, 2022 Any recommendations on campsites? 6 of us with staggered arrival times. Prefer somewhere chill but not a quiet/family area. Totally unprepared for this festival. Should probably start packing at some point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

uscore Posted May 25, 2022 Report Share Posted May 25, 2022 I'm fine when it's cold and I'm in the tent, it's just being out and about I struggle with. Once the coldness sets in I find it hard to recover and end up having to go to bed earlier than perhaps I want. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popsider75 Posted May 25, 2022 Report Share Posted May 25, 2022 So excited for this now. Been a long time since been in the fields anywhere. Can't wait to chill with a few beers and some fantastic music. Safe travels everyone. Hope to speak to plenty of random folk over the weekend!
