Women:
Three weeks before;
1. Book hair, eyebrow appointment
2. Buy hair colour
3. Search e-bay for a new outfit
4. Look at your womanly physique in the mirror....decide that you need to lose a stone in 3 weeks, so make mental note to do workout, sit-ups, squats etc..every day
5. Save small amount of your favourite toiletries, face cleanser, toner, eye make-up remover, day cream, night cream, eye cream, factor 15 for the face and factor 8 for the body (the sun WILL come out), body lotion, shower gel, shampoo, conditioner, hair product one (to give it body), hair product two (to make it straight), hair product three (to make it glossy) hair product four (so it does not frizz), hair product five (to keep it in place)
Two weeks before;
1. Buy new outfit (two of just in case) off e-bay, found using searches such as ‘Biker babe’, ‘biker rally outfit’, ‘black goth’, ‘black basque ladies’ etc.....
2. Start tan-tastic preparations, scrub fresh and moisturise

The week before;

The day before;
1. Sort out the clothing you are taking into piles
2. The clothing you are wearing on a hanger
3. All other items hidden, so that your Victor Meldrew partner does not say, ‘Do you think you are taking that lot for two days?’
<o:p> </o:p>The day of;
1. Face pack, condition hair, shave armpits and legs, apply make up with no mascara (to avoid panda eyes on the way in gail force winds)
2. Try to pack 10 tops, three pairs of jeans, 3 sets of matching underwear, toiletries (as above), towel (the size of a small country)
3. Text mates to see if they are taking hairdryers, and/or straighteners as you realise you have gone over your allocation baggage allowance)
4. Moisturise whole body, get dressed outing on extra layers of clothing that you could not fit into small bag
5. Put extra items you forgot to pack onto coat pockets

sounds like you prefer to take a trailer loaded up with extra supplies .......... just in case , lol
( been to one rally without a tent, went to another one without tent poles, and one i took a 6 man tent and slept outside, )
Wouldn't have expected anything else from you Mic , yep a girl needs her 'supplies'
The list didn't include; wellies for if it's wet, boots for the day time (a different pair for each day), boots for the night time (a different pair for each night) and much more stuff that I could manage to pack
