First time i'll be spending the entire weekend at a festival soon (Kendal Calling) so i'm basically just looking for some advice on what to take. How many changes of clothes etc? There from Friday - Sunday

Already got the tent sorted for me and the missus.
 
I don't think i'll take a camera because everyone has decent enough ones on their phones these days and it's just another thing to lose. There's about 20+ of us too so i'm sure someone will take theirs.

So far the essentials i've got are...

Tent
Toilet roll
Clothes x4
Money
Wellies
Waterproof Jacket

Will pick some beer up where we are staying. Unsure on what kind of food to take, if any. Thought about maybe getting one of them disposable BBQs but that means taking/buying meat.

Hmmmmmmmmm

Take a loud stereo, bongos an acoustic guitar and plenty of beer, if someone really wants to get shut during a festival they should **** off home.

Also take red wine in plastic bottles, that way it doesn't matter if it gets warm :cool:

Oh and a tent is handy but far from essential, I did Glastonbury with a 3 foot play tent once and survived quite nicely :)

The way the weather is now I don't want to chance it haha. Plus it's for me and the girlfriend ;p
 
Forecast for heavy showers on Saturday....

It's not going to be pleasant lol. Sorted my sleeping bag/wellies/tent yesterday.

Cheers for the advice guys. I thinking about maybe buying a camping fold up chair, I did used to have them and they are pretty comfy too :D

Antibacterial handwash - which you don't need to use water with.

I was wondering about washing my hands. Thanks for reminding me about that though, we have some hand wash you don't need water with lurking about the house somewhere.
 
Thanks for the advice people. Ended up buying a blow up bed for the second night because it was horrible sleeping on the floor and the girlfriend woke up with sore shoulders and neck sooo. £10 airbed done the job :D

Went for breakfast at Morrisons, it was actually horrible :\

Freestylers were absolutely class
Dirty Pretty Things were pretty good too

Really tired today still at work, feel like i'm about 5 times less intelligent than I was before the weekend, I actually do feel stupid lol.
