I learned-

1) when you have waterproof luggage, don't put your camera in the only bit which isn't waterproof.
2) Don't put your disco glass down for a second, or you'll never see it again
3) All rideouts should visit the seaside

I learned most of the other key lessons last year-

1) have a tent which isn't s***. Camping in the rain is a lot more fun when you have a dry bed and enough space to keep all your stuff.
2) The benefits of stupid headgear often outweigh the downsides.
3) Don't be last to bed, when you have to ride in about 4 hours.

That disco glass was in the communal tent Sunday morning, I couldn't remember whose it was - don't know what happened to it after that

It is currently in a box of stuff we found when packing away the communal tent after everyone left. I'll get fizz to bring it up with him when he comes up to your rideout.

We also have at least one mug thats not ours and a camping chair, if any one wants to claim items just drop a pm.
