I remember you doing this last year, it’s a stroke of genius. We’re staying in a hotel in Bath on Monday so will be getting room service as my brain finds it’s way back to normality.

CaledonianGonzo Posted June 10, 2023 Report Share Posted June 10, 2023 And a shitload of Calippos for the weary vocal chords, which will have been obliterated the night before at the mother of all singalongs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LMK Posted June 10, 2023 Report Share Posted June 10, 2023 May as well join in as I’ve been reading so long 😊 Did some exercise, aired out my sleeping bag, sorted some outfits and backed up my phone ready to try out my new Vodafone SIM card. Feeling quite smug… would normally be leaving everything for next weekend. Not long now! 👏🏼 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arriente Posted June 10, 2023 Report Share Posted June 10, 2023 Not posted in ages, but started reading the excitement in here a couple of weeks ago. Getting excited and trying to be a bit organised this weekend. Haven't been since 2017 so a lot of my gear needs checking and a few repairs needed. Today I've repaired two of my tent poles that have splintered. Also ordered a few bits for the camp site and for putting finishing touches to outfits Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lendan Posted June 10, 2023 Report Share Posted June 10, 2023 Hair cut, electrolytes, paracetamol, berocca type things, etc etc Variety pack of kopparberg, 10 cans of deadman’s finger and coke Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrump Posted June 10, 2023 Report Share Posted June 10, 2023 Watched Glastonbury after hours. Has totally recentered me, it's not about who's on my clashfinder and whether I catch Elton (spoiler alert... I will!) And so on. It's about a week of pushing boundaries, escaping marketing, full throttle expression and making meaningful (if brief) connections. Has also made it clear that that 9 times out of 10 I think @Skip997 is right. all my own opinions, not meaning to deny someone else's experience etc etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2019 Posted June 11, 2023 Report Share Posted June 11, 2023 Danced (dad danced), for 4 hours last night at a friend's garden party. Just to need to stretch this to 4 days now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Clearest Blue Posted June 11, 2023 Report Share Posted June 11, 2023 Neighbours are airing out their tent in the shared garden, really want to go ask them if it’s Glastonbury prep, but my partner says that’s weird 😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

harryy Posted June 11, 2023 Report Share Posted June 11, 2023 had a totally productive week in prep for my first time on the farm... excitement increasing daily... sorted hiking boots, heavy duty trolley, purchased new shorts, and sorted a packing list, need to air out / MOT / clean tent but there is no wind today and just what feels like 30c sun right now so that has been relegated to the week -- alongside gathering misc camping stuff from loft and a trip to Uniqlo / decathlon for bag / rain jacket (to appease weather gods)... will maybe purchase the MOTH espresso martinis too and some LOOP ear protection (if anyone has any recs or thoughts, I'm all ears 😉 ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rubenz Posted June 11, 2023 Report Share Posted June 11, 2023 Might go to Sainsburys to purchase a few bits and pieces. But I want to travel light So I must not buy too much Would love to make it in with one trip from the car But I like my big air bed and giant sleeping bag And food and drink prices are going to be high So maybe I should buy some more cans Eeeeeerggh.. Hard to know whats best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chazwwe Posted June 11, 2023 Report Share Posted June 11, 2023 Have set up my tent (3xl fresh and black) to make sure its all still working (used a different tent last year) and to give it a freshen out. 24 degrees with 60% humidity at lunch time and its cooler to sit inside it than it is outside. Amazing things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dotdash79 Posted June 11, 2023 Report Share Posted June 11, 2023 Test packed the trolley, the effort to slim down the loads has paid of and I think we can do 1 trip without killing us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
