Nooooo can't camp anymore, silly me volunteered to go on a french trip.... Thats the best bit of download!

 

Should be going sunday though, as my gf is into the old school stuff. Anyone able to create a master plan so i can sneak away to the 'heavy' stuff and gain a few war wounds... Download wouldn't be download without someone starting a fight over my hair blocking there view...

 

Planning to get my 'fro searched again this year too!

this should totally work

 

Not sure if the bladder idea would get searched, although if you have a t-shirt in your hand and put a half full on in that, they'd probably feel the tshirt, feel nothing hard, and let it through..

Posted

well they do the whole touch search thing don't they..

 

so they would feel the bulge of the bladder and probably question it.

You could blame it on a giant abses or something like that...

smell? what do you mean by smell?

 

surely if its in a air tight container which is clean it wouldn't smell all that much...

 

plus how many people there camp the night, and watch the bands.. therefore get very sweaty and dont shower?

Posted

open and sniff... make sure your not mixing or passing vodka off as water.... (how useful would jesus be then....)

 

Out of interest is anyone camping but NOT staying sunday -> monday, and perhaps willing to swap wrist bands with me & gf?

Posted
just go the whole weekend

 

You might have swine flu therefore you can't go to france :p

 

if i have swineflu chances are it will b phase 6, and apparently at tht stage travelv(outside uk) & mass gatherings are off....

Posted

Nice, I'm going on the 10th too

I just looked at the website and it said 31 days so i got very excited!

 

thats if my friend passes his driving test. His left it soo last minute :(

Posted

what if he fails?

the train is looking like my only method of getting there as the group of peeps i want to go with have there head so fa....... anyway there little incompetent, it all well and good me seeing what travel options are available but when i ask what they want to do / can afford then come back with 'i unno' ARGH.

Posted

If he fails then I will train / bus / national express / walk!

 

I will get there, and I have the two days before hand. So there's enough time for it all to go belly up, and still get there on time :D

Posted
I would be gutted if I missed either the wed or thurs as they are half the festival, the band bit is one festival and the 2 days before is another.
