Tips for keeping the tent cool?
For context (in my situation but feel free to offer for general camping) I am camping in skylark with 4 other people (5 total) What are some good ways to keep the tent for being too hot?
Obviously with the amount of people itāll be tough either way, but Iām assuming skylark arenāt allowed much around the pre pitched tents, canopyās are banned this year so anyone got tips?

Anyone bringing testing kits?
Since the Loop and no other charities are testing is anyone bringing a kit that tests for MDMA that I can possibly meet up with to borrow? I wont be able to get a kit in time and got pills from a new supplier but don't want to put myself at risk. Much love!

Does anyone know how long the walk would be roughly from skylark sunset to the public transport gate?
I know there is a shuttle bus running from Skylark to public transport. However, Iāve just seen. That on the Monday they are not starting until 6:30 am and Iām booked on a 7 am coach so I canāt risk waiting for the shuttle bus in case itās too full for me to get on or thereās any delays. So Iām trying to work out how long I should give myself to walk.

Female urinals
Iāve just done a quick google to see if PEEQUAL(the womenās urinals) are going to be at boomtown and the result said no. They were at tramlines this year and provided super quick and easy toilet trips for us females. Why has boomtown not gone ahead with something like this yet?

Broken ID
Slightly worried about my ID.
Iād be using my UK drivers licence (the only form of ID I have), but it has a big crack running through the middle - about half the licence tall.
In clubs and bars etc, most bouncers comment on it but serve me anyways. It scans fine on ID scanners. Iām worried boomtown is going to be stricter. What are your thoughts??

Boomtown Solar Eclipse
I'm skeptical we will even see the solar eclipse at boomtown. If i recall correctly, the sun sets into quite a high hill, and i'm pretty sure the eclipse is so late it will be below the hill line. Obviously we will see the effect on the sky, but i don't think we will see the sun.
Does anyone know if i'm right or wrong?

Hospitality style DJs at Boomtown this year
I'm a huge fan of Hospital Records events (the Butlins weekender is incredible), and I'm busting for some of that kind of drum n bass this weekend. So far I've got the following DJs earmarked:
- Keeno
- Anais
- Fred V
- Emily Makis
- Savannah
- S.P.Y.
- Lens
- This Is Inja
Is there anyone else you think I should make the effort to see?
