How am I going to survive?

Arse End of the Universe, Cumbria

Rightio gang, I'm off to Yorkshireland to pick the Wyrd one up and we're going to a festival...primitive washing facilities, a borrowed tent (don't ask why we're not using Wyrd's), a blow up bed 5 inches off the ground to get on and off for 3 nights and probably very little Fab access...on the plus side, there's a lovely male fabber I've been chatting to going to help put the tent up and I'm looking forward to some good music, especially Bellowhead, the Levellers and the Human League.

Wish me luck and I'll report back on Monday should we survive

You will be fine. Take babywipes and hand sanitizer and a warm blanket to go under you on that cold airbed. I love camping but hate a cold bed and they just suck the warmth out of you. You will have a brilliant time

I bet you're have a great time! Can't beat a good festival. Just do lots of extra activities to keep warm at night! Either that or take 3 duvets!

My godson has gone to Reading, lucky lad! Enjoy.

And condoms!! Loads!

If the inflatable bed goes tits up just blow a load up and stick them inside the mattress.

Hey presto - instant puncture repair.

Take a head torch and a pair of wellies. Both extremely handy for late night loo visits!

Thick socks, a spare blanket and a big cardi and or coat - it's colder at night then you think and it's easy to cool down but harder to warm up.

And don't forget the corkscrew/bottle opener.

Have a lovely time. I recently introduced a non camper to the delights of canvas. And with a bit of luck (and making suggestions whilst under the influence) may be able to persuade my friend to do it again!

I love camping, as long as it doesn't piss it down all weekend. Anyway there will be so many beer tents there I'll be happy whatever

I'm OK with beer, its overdoing wine that does for me. And I'm sure I can manage a piggy-back if Caz gets tired. Anyway they are providing rides to the arena, as this is an oldies festival.

Top Tip but a blanket on the floor under the airbed. The reason for this is the cold air makes the air in the bed colder therefore less dense which makes the bed seem softer and you will have to keep topping up the bed with air.Oh and duvets are warmer than sleeping bags

Check your wellies for frogs before sliding your bare feet into them. I speak from experience!

Oh and even if you plan to rely on the stalls for food pack some stuff that doesn't need anything doing to it to snack on, you never know when you'll get the munchies and if the stalls will either still be serving or if it's what you want to eat.

And if you like your tea and/or coffee pack a travel mug, hot drinks cool down very quickly in plastic camping mugs.

**FESTIVAL REPORT

I'm now the proud owner of a 4 man tent - the one we were going to borrow didn't have standing room and I wanted to be as comfortable as possible...we had problems with the money system on cards and I initially thought I was going to spend the entire 3 days traipsing between the service trailer and various g-card booths, but eventually got it sorted...Wyrd lost her g-card overnight but eventually found it when a temporal flux returned it through the black hole that also ate her hairbrush...a lovely Fab man helped us put the tent up and also kept me warm on Friday night, lots of BBC (that's Big Black Clouds of course) some awesome groups, lots of beer, cider, sloe gin and cocktails...and did I mention awesome music?

Oh, if you get the chance to see Tricky - DON'T FECKING BOTHER...he was shite and that's an hour of my life I won't get back in a hurry...

Anyhow, now I've got a tent again, I guess I'll be using it more so watch out Swingfields next year

**REPORT ENDS

Caz has a four man tent. Watch for the ad she places for four men to fill it.

It was also quite funny as Wyrd had said that it was surprising she hadn't seen anyone she knows from York, it being her local festival...I said it was impossible to go to my local festival in Penrith without falling over Arse Enders and then bugger me if I wasn't coming away from the loos when a guy hollered my real name and it was an Arse Ender - there must have been two sacrifices by the Elders to allow both of us out of the settlement at the same time

I think there is a secret tunnel out of Arse End. You shouldn't be allowed beyond Penrith in any sort of numbers above 1.

Yep, critical mass of Arse Enders is two apparently
