What have you done today to get ready for Glastonbury?

[Krazypinkminx]

I did allotment digging this week. Got burnt. Packed glasto factor 2

[gorbag]

Put the tents up for their pre-Pilton airing and brushed up the dried mud left from 2011. Only twelve work alarms to go now

[coma girl]

Thanks! How do they work?

[restricteD]

Put the new tent up attached space blankets to combat the heat. Clothes pegs are effective but a bit big so leaving it all up and going to buy hair clips in work tomorrow and see if they work. If they do then we'll hopefully be able to leave it all clipped together when we pack it away.

[TheParkAfterDark]

Bought a couple of spare batteries and a bigger memory card for the camera.

[James Bolivar]

Spent all the afternoon in the garden topless, same yesterday to try to get to a colour darker than albino white ready for the festival.

[bimblebee]

Bought brandy and vodka while at a reptile show in Germany

[malcombe]

Ordered a pair of gaiters from amazon. But if I've got them, then I won't need them.

[JoBalls]

I've been having a practice run with the hair. Haven't washed it since Friday night and haven't used anything on it that I wouldn't have access to at the festival. So far I can assume this will be my look:

Tuesday night - fresh and clean

Wednesday - still fairly fresh and clean.

Thursday - boho chic

Friday - erratic.

Will assume it will only go downhill from there. Have added "hat" to my shopping list.

Today, I've started taking the train to work (whoa!) It means a 6.6 mile round trip walk each day, which i've worked out will be around 72 miles by go time....to say I usually sit at a desk and get driven to & from work this is mega!

On a more interesting note; I've also found these frozen cocktail pouches at Tesco; 2 for £4! Ideal for sitting in the queue on Tues night no?

[VV_Ellis]

I have choreographed a dance I want to do as a 'Flash mob' and started spreading the news.

On a more practical note I do need to check my tent doesn't need any major repairs!

Happy packing and planing one and all!

[Krazypinkminx]

Test packed the sack truck. = heavy

[Pinhead]

Felt 'The Quickening' for the first time this morning - the call to pilgrimage. Realised I've done sod all towards getting ready other then locating a few items. Really need to get my act in gear - the car I'm going down in is not even road worthy yet!

[ghandi]

Just bought a 20l box of Westerns cider and ordered one pair of wellie socks and 2 pairs of walking boot socks from ebay.

[Bubblecup]

Also bought a 20l box of Westons cider

[cokebabies92]

Also bought a 20l box of Westons cider

[Girlwiththemostcake]

I bought a couple of cheap dresses, belts and necklaces from H&M

[IamChappu]

Picked up my ticket from the post office....no better preparation!!

[FTHC]

the ex is still in possession of all of our mutual glasto stuff and she won't be attending this year, so I am collecting it all this afternoon. Suspect it will be a little awkward, it's a necessary evil though!

[LondonTom]

Over the weekend I sorted the bits still in my old festival bag and moved them over to the new one, so sort of started packing but its more my camping bits and bobs I just keep in there

Tried out my Alpkit Inflatable mat and after leaving it up for 24 hours, it does do a pretty good of inflating itself!

Started my festival boooze run (Jim Bean Bourbon i am going do the Apple Pie Bourbon infusion with tonight and some apple Smirmoth vodka) and got some other little bits from pound stretcher and new tent light for £6.50 from Asda!! (Bright as fuck!)

Glastobated lots

and oh had another dry run of putting the tent up

[2/Z]

Today I have mostly been reading this forum lots and getting excited while at work. This is my contribution for getting ready for the big G today

[Rio]

Today my new camping gear arrived, i've had it all out and mega chuffed with it all, now i can get down to the important part... planning my alcohol shopping!

[4AssedMonkey]

Beardgate update. The wife has just said that "now it's come in properly, it really suits you." This is progress. Apparently though, kissing me is still horrible.

[rhysieg]
