    Hi
    Promised my eldest I would take her to Glastonbury this year in our Designer.

    But booked two trips to Greece so no cigar!

    So want to book for next year- any tips/ ideas of costs from people who have done it!
    Thanks

    I think the biggest challenge these days is getting hold of tickets.

    I tried this year without success.

    I've enjoyed watching the BBC coverage though ... much more on catch-up and online streaming this year, making it possible to avoid the idiotic presenters.

    Hopefully we'll both be successful next year and there'll be two more Dandys there.

    An acquaintance went in a trailer tent this year. £85 in a separate field but still attached to Glastonbury, she was much impressed.

    Do you know if it was a long walk from the trailer tent area to the main stages Esermalda?

    I got the impression that it was when I was looking into it last year. I like the smaller festivals where it's possible to pop back to the camper and top up the 'refreshments' over the course of the day, but I doubt that this is feasible at Glastonbury.

    This owner/seller seems to have been, if any one knows them.

    Nice comments though.
    Are angled sides common on this model, as I've not noticed this before.

    Never seen one with angled sides.  Suspect 

    It doesn't look right at all. It doesn't have an A frame or brakes!!!
    We wonder if someone has transplanted it on to another trailer chassis as the original had rotted away??

    Home made attempt at inboard wheels?
    I'd say it's more Dart than Delta looking at how far over the tub the bed reaches when it is folded up. Similar thoughts looking at the kitchen unit.
    If you cut the sides to this extent on a Dart would they be narrower than the width of the A frame. Hence a central bar.

    The draw bar?, looks exactly the same as the one on our combicamp, that is also an unbraked trailer.
