Packing clothes, doing a bit of ironing watching youtube highlights. Adele Hometown Glory comes on. Bottom lip starts going. My 11 year old daughter: "you alright dad?"

[CaledonianGonzo]

Anyone who witnessed that Adele set in the flesh is guaranteed to get into heaven.

Doing the big final pack today after finalising the checklist. I anticipate several packs and unpacks upon realising I’ve forgotten something minuscule yet essential.

New Order over on the other stage at the same time: “lovely voice but what the hell did her boyfriend do to her” 

🤣

Campervan pass for Willow Meadows just arrived - was starting to get a little twitchy.

Kit for variable weather conditions bagged up ready to go in Bus - layers, it all about the layers - running kit base layers ftw 

[Crazyfool01]

Last day at work so I’ve made use of our walk in freezer to freeze my cider I’ve added a layer of water at the bottom and then cans of cider surrounded by crushed ice .:.. should be a solid lump when I collect it Tue … ready to go down to the car parks

I have finally got round to making some hopefully decent pint carriers. For years i've been moved to anger by either having to struggle carrying three floppy paper cups or take the 'will they all fall on the floor' four cup paper holders and so every time i spill beer i vow to make my own, and every year i forget UNTIL NOW.

 

nothing complicated, thin ply and a hole saw, but I'm hoping they will work 🙂

 

I have tested them with the five cups all full and it works, though you need both hands to stop the carrier flexing too much, which is why there is no pic 🙂

 

extra small hole is for a caribinier / tie / velcro etc 🙂

tape round the outside is an anti splinter feature.

Ouch! Not ideal timing! Hope you have others with you who can help you out. Is it your dominant hand as well?

 

Yeah, not great timing but it's actually not as bad as initially thought. Not my drinking hand anyway so all good! 😂

Hiked up Wansfell this morning. First time I've been able to do something that big since I had Covid in April. 480ish metres, climb of about 440 or so. Still got out of breath, but normal out of breath rather than Covid out of breath. Bodes well for next week

[Reckoner]

Arrived in London. 

[Gabi_says]

Bought a new sleeping bag to replace my super bulky old one. Added a self inflating pad. It's definitely going to make a difference, downsizing from a 65 to a 35 L backpack. 

 

Old vs. New:

Well as I said earlier, I am now packed. Am volunteering this year so expect to be on site on Tuesday. Am leaving Scotland on Monday. I’m so excited I couldn’t sleep last night. Hoping to get at least one nights good sleep pre festival. Can’t wait. It’s been so long. I think as soon as my bus gets within view of the site there will be tears.

[TheGChild]

Decanted booze, finished packing, finalised clashfinder. Thats its. Roll me in glitter and throw me to the drag queens. Im ready!

[moogster]

Put most clothing ready but waiting a couple of days before adding upper body clothing to see how cold we have to aim for. OH has decided to put the shoes already in the car although we only live wednesday  * shrugs *

[MrZigster]

I've just got back from getting the necessary liquids in.

Literally the first thing I have done towards this year since buying the tickets back in 2019.

I maybe cutting it fine.

[Beerqueen]

All packed (well not the last minute things like phone and money/cards etc.  Haven't put wellies in yet but they can be strapped to outside of rucksack if need be (I think anyway!).

Tried to think ahead and packed some paracetamol in my day bag so I have it with me when I'm out and about (not like 2019 when I'd cleverly left it at the tent when I got a raging headache due to the sun).  Ditto plasters and rehydration tablets.

 

[prestonmike]

Filled the car up with petrol, then applied for a loan to pay for it!

[PassingCloud]

Decided I’m never ever drinking again until Wednesday.

sounds like a champion 'retoxing' effort 

[LoraMaze]

My car still needs extra work, so now realistically I won’t be able to pick it up until Tuesday morning…then go for a physiotherapy appointment, then to work, then back home to pack up the car, sleep a bit, and then head off…fuck!

 Sorted my sons and friends trolley. They are going on coach. I am CEO of alcohol provision 

[CaledonianGonzo]

Watching the Isle of Wight coverage and there's some amazing Taps Aff-age in the crowd for The Fratellis.

After the forecast, I’ve double waterproofed everything. Even my hair.
