    *Toilet paper is number 1 priority. I regret not bringing it at 08.
    *Duck tape in case your tent gets slashed.
    *Food (oxegen is full of rip off merchants and the food they sell is sh*t)
    *Cans of course but you can sneak in with a bottle just hide it well.

    That's mostly the essentials anyway. Oh and avoid trouble with the stewards alot of them are scumbags and will most likely look for any excuse to confiscate your drink.

    - Wellies
    - Plastic bags
    - Old/sh*t clothes you don't really wear anymore
    - Loads of socks
    - An air bed
    - Sleeping bag
    - Toothpaste. AFAIK you can get toothpaste that doesn't require water or something to that effect.
    - Rain jacket
    - A cheap chair to sit on. Buy one before you get there. Rip off down there.
    - Your own food. Oxegen is really expensive for food. There's loads of BBQ pits around the place so you can bring a disposable BBQ and cook something nice for yourself instead of paying for overpriced crap.
    - Loads of water
    - A towel but only if you're gonna use the showers there. No point though really.

    That's about it really.

    Good advice about the duck tape. I'd have never thought of that.

    Duct tape and condoms preferably not used in conjunction.:D Duct tape is genuinely really handy. Bring food like cereal bars, beans etc...

    If its going to rain be sure to bring about five pairs of socks (I'm serious) there is nothing worse then walking around in wet socks, and nothing better then nice clean socks. That said Wellingtons also work.


    At the moment I'm lookngn at making up a bag to sell which will include some of the essentials for bringing to music festivals.
    Fill out the survey in my sig if you want to make any suggestions on what should be in it.

    LIDL sell moist toilet paper for 1.99 i think. more uses than the regular stuff and easier to hide, other than that i would recommend you bring a pack of bin liners/black bags. They can be used for everything from lining the ground of your tent to a makeshift poncho. Also empty plastic bottles cause you can fill them with water every morning.
