Camp Loner / Going Alone

[foihnula]

Mine is similar sounding. TecTake Wagon much easier to steer/balance than a wheelbarrow or upright trolley.

[Bisque]

Granny trolley for me.

In case people didn't know, you can present your ID at the wristband tent near Reaper Bridge and be given an over-18 wristband to save you taking your ID everywhere

Food info and prices in case anyone missed it

Nice! I've just gone and bought a garden chair from Argos, £6.99, well worth it I reckon!
And I'd heard about the wristbands, definitely worth getting

[foihnula]

Cool. I'm chucking my car keys and ID in a locker after Wednesday. Then I know I won't lose them which I have a bad habit of doing!

And that's a point, I've not got a chair yet. That's pretty cheap

[Chris_Hayter88]

I'll be wearing my wristband from last year

[Thrillhouse]

Don't know what it's like at reading, but at Leeds last year the queue for the over 18 wristbands was always huge! Probably still worth it you plan on doing a lot of drinking in the arena though.

[jake.b.overton]

I just plan on sneaking in alcohol to the arena, much cheaper

[foihnula]

I'll be going there asap after setting up on Wednesday though so hopefully won't be too bad. And I think it's worth it

[foihnula]

I do plan on hiding hip flasks in the wellies but I probably will be buying in the Arena and you never know what'll get confiscated and what they'll miss.

Bag o' wine in your pants or bra, walk up to a male steward checking wristbands at arena entrance, hold up your arm high to show your wristband to get through quick.

Yeah I think it is, especially if like me you are guaranteed to be asked for I.D every time you go to the bar.

[foihnula]

Yeah I'm mid-twenties but ALWAYS get asked and it's not like I can grow a beard to help haha. So it means less faffing when buying drinks over the weekend

[jake.b.overton]

Hide enough and a bit in an obvious place and il be fine I hope

[JustNick]

Yeah! It'll be fine, hip flasks are a good solution for most issues And the chair's definitely worth getting, given it a test run and it'll do! haha

[Chris_Hayter88]

I'm hoping to see Queen Kwong if no clashes, it has the guitarist from Limp Bizkit (Wes Borland) in it.

[Berty]

Anyone still waiting for weekend tickets to arrive?

[JustNick]

The more the merrier! And it's seeming like it's going to be pretty damn merry, haha

And I'm still waiting on mine

[JustNick]

Hey guys, I've just heard there's maybe another big (maybe bigger than ours?!) Camp Loner that's been set up in the Red Area? I'm messaging the guy at the moment to find out a bit more about it

[foihnula]

I really don't fancy camping in red reckon we can convince them to move haha.

[foihnula]

Might not be terrible but all I've heard is it's a mostly gcse-age crowd, unless we fill it up with us lot etc

[JustNick]

Ahh, fair play I'm definitely more up for orange than red!
