These work great on a small camping stove, brilliant toasties. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Ridgemonkey-CLASSIC-SANDWICH-TOASTER-STANDARD/dp/B0BSNT14LQ/ref=sr_1_6?crid=3SR6SYD260QT2&keywords=ridgemonkey+pan&qid=1678966676&s=kitchen&sprefix=ridg%2Ckitchen%2C128&sr=1-6 Have one at home.

I used to be Team Wheelbarrow until I hit a muddy year at a festival, the problem is all the weight is on that one wheel, it just sank in and wouldn't shift. I ended up having to pull it, better with the weight shared across more wheels. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr CG and I have this, without all of the fancy bags on. The sides and front are adjustable. We put some lightweight plywood on the base and used bungess. As long as the heavy stuff is at the front, it's very light to lift and steer. And it all packs down to fit in the car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You would've thought a barrow would be ideal, but I suppose if the mud gets that deep it becomes an issue 😬 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UEF Posted March 19, 2023 Report Share Posted March 19, 2023 Gas tent heater. A resolution made, I think, on the first night of Glasto 2022. You can wear as many clothes as you like, but if your face is so cold it keeps you awake, I don't like it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hydrapak bladders are the best that I’ve found. The top of them open completely so you can flip it inside out to clean and dry properly.

They had left the door slightly open and the wind caught it and blew onto to the heater. very scary moment trying to get other people to wake up and get out of there tents or literally pulling tents away from the flames.

Are you going to bed cold? Possibly the most mummish comment I have ever typed on here. Edited March 20, 2023 by giantkatestacks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
