Etiquette:
- Respect: Respect yourself, respect your neighbours, respect the environment. Take pictures, leave only footprints.
- Possessions: Things go missing- by your own stupidity or theft. If you don't want to lose it, leave it at home.
- Talk to your neighbors: Scratch their backs and they'll challenge people who look like they're eyeing up your welly boots.
Clothes:
- Wellies: To anyone who has been to Glastonbury, taking a set of Wellies (Hunter Wellingtons) is sound advice. Even if the forecast is for sunny weather don't leave things to chance. You don't want Trench Foot.
- A hat: sunstroke is horrible and very easy to get when enjoying the moment.
- Socks: Take more spare socks than you need.
- Tops: One long-sleeved top that you can wrap around your waist. It gets chilly when you stop dancing at 6am.
- Water: Absolutely essential.
- Dry fruit & nuts: Just like camping these are great for energy, vitamins, minerals, proteins, and fibre.
- Biscuits: Excellent stuff and great for late night munchies.
- Remember they have food stalls, so you can pack less.
- Bin bags: Incredibly useful, from storing rubbish in to making a poncho.
- Sunscreen: This will save your skin from third degree burns.
- Toilet rolls: You want to wipe your bum, don't you? You can never have too much.
- Wet wipes: Brilliant for a quick wash in the morning. Even if you not showering, your friends don't want to smell you.
- Toothbrush: Buy two and throw them away afterwards.
- Torch: Don't forget the spare batteries. You will need to find your way back in the dark.
- Padlock: For your tent zip. This should deter petty theft.
- Mobile phone: Turn all settings down. During the day wrap it up and store in a deep pocket to save juice.
- Flag: Why you ask, taking a large flag will help you to identify your campsite. Nothing worse than trying to locate your tent that 1,000 other people have.
- Camping location: Water runs downhill and collects at the bottom. Paths are close to drunk people and Toilets smell, so think before you set up.
- Money: Keep it with you at all times!
- Cold: Jo Banana's Blanket Stall sells good blankets for as little as £5.
- Tent and Sleeping Bag: Check them for holes before you go! Make sure you have enough tent pegs too.
- Hammer/Mallet: How else are you going to put your tent pegs in. I have known people to have forgot, but a kind neighbor was there to help.
