First port of call might be getting round to finally removing last year’s parking sticker 🤦🏻‍♀️

We were just discussing this earlier, no idea how its going to actually come off

[Helsbels]

Just written out my packing list. It will probably just be a list until the night before with no actual packing done

Hot soapy water does the trick

Bought a mini pack of supermarket sushi. It's shite, but now I have one of those little soy sauce bottles that I can get my angostura bitters in. Can't be drinking dark & stormies without bitters, do I look like a monster?

Who's gonna tell him?

Last weekend we did a night camping after a sponsored walk and used it as a dummy run to see if we needed anything else. I realised I needed a new sleeping bag, and an airbed for the camp bed as apparently I’m old now 🤣

My friend didn’t realise he took a junior sleeping bag despite being over 6ft so that was a good mistake to make then and not when we go!!

Also want to look at sorting a decent power bank out as the one I ordered (link was on here) cancelled!! Any suggestions for a power bank that will let me the weekend greatly appreciated!

Also currently doing some research’ on which ciders to take with me 😉

Excellent work 😂

Some tinkering on my van. A safety light was coming on due to a loose connection which i’ve been putting up with for a while. More fiddly than difficult really

This is the one I've bought recently. 

When I asked about it in here, others also recommended it

Found my camping chair from the shed.  Made a minor repair to the bag, but it will do another year.

Took delivery of packets of little squeeze on hair beads and gems. Tried one out...pleased 😊

CUTE!

Mrs 4am would love them - link please?

I went early and did the booze shop today.  40 cans of Inch's cider and 2 bottles of Kraken.  In addition to the Magic Rock order of 72 cans of various beers  think we'll be fine. 😉

In anticipation of getting in somehow and given the weather is going to be amazing I got my first sunburn of the year to prepare me for the farm.

They were from Shein. Can't find these specific ones again at the moment but if you type in 'hair beads' or 'hollow hair jewels' or something similar there are loads of pretty things 😊 only about £1.50 a pack

Went rooting around in the basement yesterday morning and found some things I thought I'd lost. A self-inflating air mattress, a headtorch, and a travel towel.

It's a pile, a very small pile, but a pile nonetheless that I'm forming. Hopefully a lot of the travel items like the air mattress and towel can squeeze into the tent bag when I check it in.

Been getting my things together bit by bit. I don't need much really. Socks, a jumper, a hoody, some t-shirts, few shirts, jacket, cap, beanie, booze, snacks, flannel, towel, sleeping bag, tent. That's about it for me.

Spent yesterday jumping from band to band at Dot to Dot festival in Bristol. Plenty of good music, beer, walking and sun, perfect Glastonbury prep. Feels like the summer has properly started now!
