How about some smallish, non-melty (i.e. not chocolate) snacks so you're not totally dependent on the on-site catering. As you didn't mention food I assume that's being acquired by other means.

Kendall mint cake!!!

I thought this was a great idea, so I looked when we went shopping today, but couldn't find any. Where would it be in a supermarket if they had it? With sweets? I know I can get it from Millets if needs be, but it seems a bit daft to have to go to a specialist camping shop for something that's basically just sugar!

I've never seen it anywhere but camping shops. I assume this is because (a) you have to be mad to go camping, and (b) you have to be mad to eat Kendall mint cake. They kind of go together.
You could always pour a bag of sugar into a saucepan of water, stir until it disolves, add peppermint essence, then simmer it down until it's a nice solid block. Depends if you want to come back from Glasto with your own teeth.
