The getting a job part is the clincher for me! 3 weeks to find some money or else it's back to Oz by July...which isnt actually a bad thing really! :)

I promised myself not to but weather checking is sure to get out of hand again this year. Yes I know that all the forecasts are generally useless until we get to a week before and yes I know that even then they can still change dramatically at the last minute.

Having said that there could be some 4 week forecasts knocking around so I might just have to pop over to the weather thread for a quick look............... :)

So excited! Just spent the weekend in the Sussex Downs, testing our new tent. It works really well in both blistering heat and the torrential downpour that was Monday morning. Better still, I now know exactly what accessories might be useful.

Still have to sort out a new torch, sun-creme, waterproofs and a fold-away water bottle, alcomahol, sweets and a cloning machine, to take care of those nasty clashes.

Argh. I need to:

- Go home (to Doncaster) and get my car and drive it back here (London...eek!)

- Check all our stuff from last year is still okay e.g. airbed still puncture free etc

- Get all food and drink supplies

- Get all other supplies

- Wash sleeping bags

- Get some cheap dresses etc from Primark

- Get a trolley!

This thread has made me a bit stressed, there are only something like 28 days to go! :rolleyes:

Test my wellies (I'm sure they let in snow in the winter)

Buy suncream (I will be prepared for all weather)

Start to buy toiletries (baby wipes, Batiste, etc)

Find a new job ( I hate the one I am in and is making me ill, so looking forward to Glasto to have a break from it all)

Lose a stone (is this possible in 4 weeks?)

There is probably more but that is all I can think of at the min! I waterproofed the tent at the weekend, and I also wished that the weather at Glasto will be like the weather Nottm had on Sunday! Beautiful sunshine!

Sounds ace! It's funny how many us need jobs, we should start a company lol. lol @ black jack vodka (mental image of trying to put a deck of cards in the bottle - yeah yeah I know, not that kind of blackjack)

Skittles vodka is ace, DO NOT forget to take the green and yellow skittles out before mixing, I usually make a smaller lemon and lime vodka with them but they don't taste good mixed with the others.
