Well, aside from the obvious of me forgetting waterproofs and anything but my black visor:rolleyes: - what did you realise you were missing during the weekend?
I wish I'd taken a big collapsible water container so I always had some of the wet stuff on tap...

Not a thing. After unloading and realising I had everything in order I was rather suprised as I ALWAYS forget things. I think the fact that I was baking until literally 5 mins before we left actually helped...lol.
TLW....didn't you forget your actual clothes going by your avatar???

I think I need to explain this photo...
I'd stepped outside to lock my beer cooler / pannier because I knew hovis was going to be walking past later in the night to get to his tent, I was wearing my shorts and while I was locking the pannier I heard Matt say something like "hey wolfie it looks like you've got no clothes on" - the only logical thing to do was strike a sexy pose next to my lovely bike:cool:

the only logical thing to do was, make love to my bike.
Sorry perhaps I didn't make it obvious enough - there was electricity in those big stripey tents, as well as tea, coffe and hot chocolate. People could've charged their stuff in there.

Yes, if you want to avoid sharing a grotty toilet with about 80 other bikers then overdose on immodium.

Can't comment on the neurofen but the rest? You didn't need it ;)
I wish I'd taken the part of me that says "STOP! You don't need any more"
Other than that as per usual I took too much.

Yeh, how many times on the sunday night did i keep saying "oh yeh, i got a camera here somewhere...in my pocket" D'oh!

Yep! Me too. I'm gonna have to plagiarise some of the ones on the site and claim them as my own. :thumbsup:
I wish I'd taken my king size diuvan bed. This back of mine isn't made for camping!
I wish I hadn't taken my sense of moderation and decorum. I was far too boring all weekend and never really let my hair down...

Judging by the amount of people who wished they'd taken some form of pain relief (me included), maybe the next AR should have a "medic" tent :lol:

Its simple, everyone needs to bring plenty of their own drugs next year. And dont forget the rizlas too of course :lol:
And anyone wearing a nurses outfit will get my undivided attention, weather they like it or not!

Ah but Jai knows i'm his plaything whenever he want me anyway. I was thinking (hoping) for nurses of the female variety.

beat drugs? Is that the stuff musicans take then? ;)
I assume you meant best, and of course you're right there. You just need a nic nursey to help you enjoy taking them :)
