That will be the real India and on a Royal Oilfield (or is it Enfield?)

A sleeping mat wouldn't go amiss unless you're really hardcore. What you'll need will depend on the facilities at the site too. Can anyone who's been before please enlighten us?

A mat of some sort is a must for any field. I took one of the thin self inflating type ones & I managed to get a bit of sleep even with cracked ribs. This year I'm taking a bigger tent so may invest in an inflatable airbed instead.

The field slopes slightly at the top which is where I pitched on the recommendation of Danny's missus. The idea being if there is a downpour we will float down to the others & not the other way round :lol:

I took a little stove & coffee but only used it once preferring to sit at a table in the bar/eating area. Remember after breakfast you will probably be out all Saturday.

I think everyone will agree the food is spot on at Doms so no point taking any with you.

Take clothes for all weathers. Last year it was blistering hot but this is the border with Wales so hey ho.

Can't wait. going to start packing now :P

 

Oh & don't forget the cake :cake eating:
