Can confirm it takes 2 seconds to put up and 3 x YouTube videos and about an hour to pack away! It's simple dude....

Only got my ticket in the April resale and then had to plan SO MUCH in the space of just a few weeks. I felt like a kid in a candy shop walking around Tescos picking out my booze etc once I'd landed, lol. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have done sound reactive lights previously but found the sensitivity didn’t really work too well with noise levels high . The lights are app controlled as will the programmable screen be on the second hat once I’ve fitted it . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your neck can take a decent amount of weight . Think about the African water carriers who trek miles with water containers on their heads . That said this years versions are loads lighter than previous Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timbrass Posted May 2 Report Share Posted May 2 (edited) And there was me thinking I was clever making a USB fan from an old laptop fan! (because it's going to be hot!).

thewomble Posted May 5 Report Share Posted May 5 Yesterday felt pretty productive. Completed my Oxfam profile, took delivery of a new power bank and started the snack shopping. Also bought some of the new Moth flavours in Sainsbury's so I can try a couple before I put a big order in 👌🏻 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dotdash79 Posted May 5 Report Share Posted May 5 Got the tent out and put it up and down a couple of times on my own, as the wife is having a lie in, whilst I join the queue early. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buddiepaul Posted May 5 Report Share Posted May 5 I put my old tent up today and realised my new camp bed doesn’t fit in. I need a taller tent which is what I thought anyway. Need to have a look for tents tomorrow it seems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dillonstandard Posted May 8 Report Share Posted May 8 A few new bits arrived - got a new daypack as my little running backpack that I used last year is starting to die on me. Thoroughly recommended too - it’s a 14-litre Kelty Minnow, which is advertised as being for kids aged 4-8 but is a perfect size to take 2x little Quechua folding chairs from Decathlon plus various other bits. Just had a play with it and I’ve got 2 chairs, 9x330ml cans, a 400ml water bottle and a hat in there, and that’s without using the mesh pockets on the side. I reckon there’s still room to get a thin long-sleeved shirt in there as well. A new headtorch also arrived, as did some tent spares inc a load of guy-rope tensioners.

faymondo Posted May 8 Report Share Posted May 8 Went to nose at a tent. Seen one of those inflatable ones much lighter but no built in ground sheet which puts me off. Heard loads about those blackout ones but I want something I cant stand up in (6ft 2) so probably getting a heavyish one (lighter than our old one) Once the tent is bought then all eyes to fashion and Glastonbury add ones etc !
