if the offer is there again this year, I might be asking if you would be bring your nice selection of tents the weekend and I have the use of one....but this time I will bring a can of WD40 so I don't breakdown. If not if Tony is going up in the van I may drop my stuff off there and ask him to bring my tent etc up.

Jamie! what are you doing? sleeping in the communal tent or taking your own.

I was hoping to get a space in Flatlines' pop-up palace, so I don't have to carry camping junk on my bike again!

Just a tank bag containing:

- Sleeping bag

- Toothbrush

- Enough duct tape to gag Virt.
Jamie :wave:

Don't think a cheap 7 quid sleeping bag from argos is a good idea, I was so wombles cold, I slept in my leathers with jeans on and two jumpers and a few t shits inside the bag and I was still very cold on the last one, get a decent bag.

Also take some ear plugs the sound of electricity from the pylons overhead made a bit of noise every now and then
