After looking at the stooly baggy thingy this wheeled schoolbag from Lidl might work for some people

What is the consensus on the best freeflow system? Small backpack with enough room for 6/7 cans was my thinking.

Yeah was wondering that myself. Dont want to be that dick with the rucksack shoving into people near the front of the crowd, also dont want to carry a carrier bag. Small backpack would be great.

If the wheels aren't pneumatic you'll end up dragging that around

I find back packs hugely annoying.

I always use a satchel across my body. Can move it to front or back depending on the situation.

Have my trusty drawstring for every festival I go to. Can fit a suprising amount of cans in it, doesn't take up too much space and can be put in your pocket when empty.

Good one, have misplaced one I had, must try and dig it out.

Full steam to Ireland this weekend for @alltogethernow.ie – and alongside the Afterburner, we’re taking the Lords of Lightning and our very own pub – the Tow and Hitch - as we lay down roots and make a home there.

ATN founder John Reynolds was a huge inspiration and support to us from our earliest days and following his tragic death last year, we want to play our part in helping the festival become everything that he dreamed over the coming years – here’s to you John... and roll on the weekend.

Does anyone think the 'both sides now' campsite might be an unofficial quieter campsite? If so I'd be looking to head there, although it's unclear which entrance would be best to take. Does anyone have any idea? Would general campers even be able to get there from red entrance easily without some mad detour?

That pub looks great. That's me sorted if it rains for a while!! I'd say you are right about the both sides now campsite being quieter, cant imagine all of the session heads travelling any further than they need to.

Apparently Tesco are doing click and collect for EP. I joked about getting cans delivered to ATN, would be fairly handy! That's one bit of commercialisation I don't mind :P

Would this thing be useless? Wheels don't look the sturdiest...

I would suggest just bringing a cooler bag? I don't think the wheels are necessary since you won't be walking too far

eidt: ignore- misread your post

Any clarification from the organisers if campers in "Both Sides Now" would have to walk all the way around to the "main entrance" on the map? There appear to be paths into the site from the other side but nowhere I can find marked as an actual entrance... just something called "Wells Bridge".

Oh really? Great news if so...I'm just scarred from several EP trips!

Long time since ive been to a festival ... If one was to make use of the showers...presume you need to bring towels etc.. or do they sell them there.

They might sell them, probably over priced thou, bring a towel!

Bring your own towel

I'm hoping this is the case too... Don't get me wrong, i'll session with the best of them but "disco naps" have become a necessity in my life! Plus the us and you experience from body and soul has us spoiled!!

....all that being said the main campsite at atn last year was spot on.

Seems the walk from podpads to Londis for ice will be a long one. Hope I can be arsed

I'm sure red entrance is only for family, boutique etc. You will b probably turned away

There's always one in the group that has to carry the drinks for everyone! Not a fan either of back packs, but they are almost a necessary evil. In the pursuit of not being a dick because of the back pack ;-) something like this is ideal: https://www.houseoffraser.co.uk/brand/karrimor/sierra-10-backpack-791145
They're only 4" deep.

Might go with the draw string if I can find a half decent looking one in elvery sports or something.

OK .. the problem is only with phones with Android 9 (Pie). I have looked into but I am heading down a rabbit hole. Real work is getting in the way so a fix will probably be later tonight.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

This is now fixed and the updated app is in the Play Store.

Can anyone who had the problems earlier please confirm that it is now fixed?

Also, can whoever left the "1 star review" based on the last update, please consider revising it? Considering it's a free fan app with no adverts and the bug has been fixed.

Are we allowed to put colored lights up at the tent, we have these solar powered ones in the garden and the eldest lad is pestering me to bring them so he can see the tent at night, similar to these
