_shaun_ Posted August 19, 2015 Share Posted August 19, 2015 first year going so want to make sure ive actualy planned ahead. what does everyone take with them? am thinking a tent,sleeping bag, and a camping chair and a few changes of cloths and fill the rest of the car with drink? anything else people advise taking? is there food avalible all during the event and is it reasonable priced? is there limitations to what you can bring in with you drink wise? cheers shaun Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Hou Posted August 19, 2015 Share Posted August 19, 2015 You are more or less there. Most people take an air bed too. Take a mug for brews if you drink tea as someone will always have a kettle on the go and might share tea bags. I usually take more stuff than I need but better to be prepared Foodwise, there is usually something open early until late, the noodles used to be epic, but have gone downhill last couple of years but there will be something decent to eat. Bring plenty of snacks and crap to munch on Drinks wise, they advise against glass bottles for beer but you can get away with spirits. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
_shaun_ Posted August 19, 2015 Author Share Posted August 19, 2015 ahh thats a fair point ill take my wee travel cup with me and wee tub with t bags and the like. see food i wasnt sure i cant cook to start so adding in a camping stove would be a disaster. ill bring some pot noodles and junk food incase stuff goes bad. ahh thats not bad then wasnt sure if they had limits like other festivals. ill just bring a few crates of beer or cinder and a bottle or two of jack to keep me going.

Hou Posted August 19, 2015 Share Posted August 19, 2015 If you need to get a kettle on I am sure someone will help or just come find me, I don't mind sharing. We are a decent bunch and everyone has to come to their first JAE, I've been going since 2004!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
