    I made the executive decision over the weekend that one wont be attending Global Gathering this year.

    I cant really afford it to be honest.

    Put plastic bags round your feet and tie em up before you put them in your wellies. Will keep your socks/feet dry. I would invest in a travel lock or two aswell.

    This happened to me at Big Day Out.

    Inject loads of oranges/mandarins (or even a watermelon) with vodka/spirit of your choice.

    They aren't gonna take fruit from you, and not only will you get drunk, you will also have a healthy snack.
