One of the jobs came through. 
This week ill be working at the Isle of Wight festival as a security steward/dogsbody, so I get a camping trip with my mates (who are working with the same company) plus moochos booze. Plus, the isle of wight has some of the clearest night skies in the country, so for astronomy Im like a pig in shit.
And I get paid to do this.
On the downside, I only got the call yesterday for this, and Ive never been to a music festival before, so today was a whirlwind of buying stuff I will need for the uniform and for the campsite. Ive probably forgotten one or two things, but hey ho. Im cautiously optimistic about how things will go (I dont particularly fancy taking a shit after ten thousand other people for example) and its effectively a working holiday.
Is there anything I should take to a festival to make things easier? I can grab some stuff on the way. Please help me!

wow! you lucky bastard! you're gonna have a great time! i would suggest lots of toilet paper. maybe even some of those fruity moist toilet wipes. nothing worse than the final day of the festival and needing a crap. other than that, maybe take some snacks. as much fun as it is to live off burgers from the vans, it's probably not the healthiest thing ever. one dodgy burger ans that toilet roll comes in pretty damn handy! last time i did a big camping festival we bought those kelloggs variety packs of cereal. helped us out in times of need. plus we got a free kids t shirt in the box, which is obviously an added bonus. HAVE FUN!!!!
