Last on the packing list: FUN STUFF!!!



Ok, we all know the things that are first on the list, there are many great packing lists out there, but what about the extras!? Here's a list of extra things for Glastonbury Festival that are by no means essential, but will be a hell of a lot of fun! So if you're got that extra millimetre of space in your bag then get yourself something awesome.

 • 1 | Juggling/flow

Juggling and circus stuff is awesome. I've been messing around with it from an early age and have tried all manner of different things. By far one of the most fun is poi! My wife Jessica has just taken to it like a fish to water and is loving it.
You can pick them up pretty cheap on amazon, below is my top pick, I love how they look like they're on fire!


OR
if you're feeling risky and want to join the fire jugglers at the top of Stone Circle at night then get yourself a set of fire poi!




• 2  |  Hacky Sack

Need I explain? A great way to bring people together and meet new friends. I'm surprised we don't see more of these in the festival fields.

• 3  |  Glow Sticks

Get loads of glow sticks! Rave the night away like a neon beacon of partying! Big ones, little ones, anything is great. One year I had my friends help me make a whole glow-t-shirt out of the small glowsticks that normally just go on your wrist. It was awesome!

• 4  |  Bubble Gun

I don't think this really needs explaining. It's a freaking bubble gun!!!

• 5  |  Inflatable Banana

Because this fruity inflatable accessory is well overdue some much needed crowd surfing!

• 6  |  Kaleidoscope

It comes to that time where a kaleidoscope is a wonderful thing at Glastonbury Festival. I mean really, just think about it.

Glastonbury Essentials: Men vs. Women



Just as a pre-warning, this is totally sexist, but to clear it up, my wife did think of 90% of the women's ones. It's all just a laugh! Enjoy!

Men

Socks

Some kind of tool
http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B000R0JDSI/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1634&creative=19450&creativeASIN=B000R0JDSI&linkCode=as2&tag=thelacrdepa-21&linkId=II565MFFJYJIYDTW
This Wenger Giant Swiss Army Knife should be perfect. Has great reviews, including this one:

 "A few of the features let it down a little:
  • The motorbike function gets appalling miles to the gallon.
  • The quantum teleporter is decidedly inaccurate. I set it for Paris and ended up just south of Chorley.
  • The trombone needs tuning every time you get it out.
  • The tent is incomplete and collapsed twice on me last week.
  • The home brewery kit works, and the beer tastes fine. The wine making kit however, is a little too robust for a merlot.
  • The satellite dish attachment struggles to connect to the projector.
  • Changing the volume on the record player is awkward, and the DJ booth isn't nearly big enough to fit more than 3 people in.
  • The paper shredder can't manage a full book without breaking.
  • Siri is very unreliable.
  • The oil dispenser is jammed shut.
  • The sword is cursed.
  • And the 12,000 piece jigsaw is missing a piece.
It's also far too easy to get the tools confused. I was going for a small picnic spoon, and accidentally bazooka'd my fruit loops.

And to top it all off, since I updated it to iOS7, it's been running slowly and my cat won't go near it.

Otherwise great!"

And maybe schedule in some neck exercises at the gym beforehand.


Hair straighteners
I'll find a power socket I'm sure.

Hair dryer
Maybe I can plug it into a tree?

Curlers
They'll heat up on the stove for sure.

Some more clothes
That top I never wear and don't fit into and goes with nothing else I own could one day possibly if I am in the right light and change my mind, it might be PERFECT for Glastonbury!
