When iˋm here in southern germany i find everything over 25 degrees to much. When iˋm in Malta 35 degrees and maybe more are totaly ok.

I don't think I've experienced too many days anywhere in Italy where it wasn't at least 34 degrees...never had a problem either. I think the only time I had issues with heat in Germany was Wacken 2013 the day after Rammstein played. No-one in or near our camp could handle that day. Anyone who said it was 33 degrees that day is fucking lying

Bloodstock i felt was rather cold last year and just remember dancing about drunk in the rain one night as it was so nice from the warmth in the day. Always feel bloodstock is the perfect temperature for a festival, warmth then cold at night to sleep

Oh, I remember the Sunday last year, BOY that was cold! Rainy morning, clear and windy afternoon/evening. I was wearing five layers to see Megadeth; my body was fine but my hands were still blocks of ice. That totally blew my camping buddy's mind.

Actually, the first time I went to Bloodstock was in 2010. I didn't dare change any clothes at all for two days, and I was in at least three layers plus a poncho in the middle of the moshpit in the middle of the afternoon to see Meshuggah, after which I only removed my poncho and one hoodie.

after two years of sunshine and 30 degrees and more it would about time for a less hot and dry summer But 2007 and 2012 were realy extreme . I donˋt thing that itˋll be that worse.

Last year was the first time I actually WISHED it would rain At one point on Saturday I thought it was going to, so I quickly packed my stuff and moved it under the marquee for when Quark and I had to leave at 4am...nope...nothing For a second I wondered why I bothered having a shower, but then I remembered I had a 13 hour journey to take the next day

I would believe that. Although there were plenty of bands I wanted to see and was enjoying the band I was watching at the time, I simply couldn't handle it. I was this close to stripping to my knickers Ended up watching all the bands on the big screen. It was still really warm when I awoke from a drunken nap at 2am

Not this year. I went to MDF and used up all of my available annual leave Hopefully next year though, and the year after that, which is as far in advance that I've been brainstorming.

So far I've gone to BOA every other year since 2010.

...so 2016 had better be awesome...and the exchange rate less awful! I'm almost out of GBP that I managed to snag at 57p to every $1. I think it's more like 45p or less now!

I'm sure you'll meet some rad individuals My first one, I camped near the "loners and n00bies" camp. There was a free spot and I asked if it was OK for me to set up camp, they said yes. There was a small group from Wales just nearby as well. We (collectively) catch up every year now
