1 - When escorting drunk mates around the arena- don't bother. Its much easier to just take their valuables and give them to someone else. Its alot easier, and alot less embarrasing.... But make sure you take plenty of pics before you swap them for beer/money/sweets..
2 - DON'T ROLL UP THE ROADS KIDS. people get hurt, and although -yes- the pictures and taunting almost seem worth it, the DAYS of endless milking it and 'having' to spend all their time on the sofa are definitely not.
3 - CAMERAS. complete banning of camera usage is necessary when sober. Try only to use your cameras when completely rat-arsed. Its alot funnier. trust me....careful though...im not completely sure why, but one year the camera shop wouldn't process all of my photo's...a bit too rude me thinks.
4 - FIRE. When you are pissed, and the angry fire lady is trying to put out a fire to save your sorry ass, don't sing fireman Sam to the tune of post-man pat at her. Its funny, very funny. But your drunk, and she will nut you.
5 - MAKING FRIENDS....AHHHHH. making friends with your neighbors is generally a good idea. They usually end up being great fun and its generally safer. Taking a big ass catapult is a good idea, it helps you befriend the crazies with axes if you fire random ammo at unsuspecting innocents!
6 - DRESSING UP. for all of you wondering how many pairs of socks/pants/jeans/whatever to take, don't. All you need clothes wise is one out fit for the first and one for the last half of the weekend. Its alot more fun and packing light is generally alot easier. I suggest pirates, cowboys and fairies... but for those of you with good imaginations, ideas should be no problem.
7 - STUFF. so you've got your cowboy outfit- what else? I'd say - if we were talking necessities here- the only other things are your fat reg t-shirt (obviously), a phone, a big ass catapult (for making friends), and providing you don't mind becoming a sponging hobo for one weekend only(sleeping in the welfare tent), 50p to spend on the whole weekends food (salvation army) and however much booze money you need/want.
Better yet, ignore this whole post, go with a tenner and nothing else, and learn from your mistakes!
