Spindles Posted February 8, 2022 Report Share Posted February 8, 2022 I recently had a bit of a wobble over whether I was going to attend this year as I've barely moved in the last 2 years and I wasn't sure if I was up to it anymore. My son convinced me though and I've ordered a new tent (as some bugger stole mine last festival) with that fancy blackout malarkey so I can sleep in later. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But wait… someone stole your entire TENT? How did that happen? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How did that happen? It was on the train on the journey home. I mean, it could have been an accident and someone picked it up in error but I had my name and address in marker pen in the see through bit on the outside so it was well marked. I was sat right by the luggage rack it was in and when I got off it was gone, never saw the culprit. It was a shame as it had only done 2 festivals and a camping weekend in Wales, but it seems that the darkest days of winter were the best ones to buy a tent in as I got myself a bargain that is a blackout version of the model of tent I've always used for festivals (Eurohike Avon).

EFC1996 Posted February 9, 2022 Report Share Posted February 9, 2022 Went window shopping for a tent and other supplies. Decided at my big age I can’t rough it anymore and sleep on the floor. Invested in a fold up bed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two singles so during the day we can pile one on top of the other creating a bit of space, that’s the main problem with air beds. At least the fold up one can be packed away. As age creeps up on you getting the sleeping sorted out takes precedence over how much beer you can carry on to site ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be honest, the last two years I’ve been, I had a coach ticket so was limited to the things I could bring. Always planned on getting a blow up bed once we got there but the alcohol takes over and it never happened. But I’m driving this year so I will happily make an extra trip to the car to bring some comfort with me. My back can’t take it any more 😂 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Utterly essential. I camped up in the lakes last year and took a quilt and proper pillow and I have to agree 100%. Looking forward to utter comfort at Glastonbury this year.
