Orange peel does wonders for masking the smell, as does coffee.
On a side note, I was once on the way back from the Netherlands and was going through customs in the airport. I was asked to go in to a side room with dogs outside it. I got in and they swabed my SLR camera as it had apparently looked strange on the scanner. It was fine so they said I was free to go. After arriving home I checked my jeans pockets and found a massive bud in them that I had totally forgotten was there.

of course, but i generally meant just your own personal stash for the festival. That way they dont get the lot on you and saves you running round the festival in search of stuff.

Right, put it this way, my mate took a half ounce in last year and he trekked up by coach, he was fine. But i also met a lad that got busted. It's a risk game. Play it how you will man.. The stuff that you can pick up on-site is awful shit so for me, i've always just relied on mates and not worried about it myself, just bring plenty of booze eh.

cos your only 15 and like me and my mates when we was 15 and going to glasto (2 years ago) you'll think your gonna want loads and just get blipped all the time and therefore take more than you will need so realistically your only gonna have max about an 8th over the 3/4/5 days depending on how long your going down for. Also just cos your at glasto it don't mean your invincible and you don't wanna pop whitey and miss any of the festival and look like a fool like a few of my mates did when we was your age so don't try and be a big man in front your mates and take what you know you can handle!
Also it really aint hard to get anything when your in there if you've got the balls to ask anyone that looks blipped enough or not, someone will have some to sell, and most people with a zoot mite give you a lick down if your nice and smiley to em  This is all out of experience so use it if you want!

Yeah this as well, but a mate of mine at V last year got stopped and searched by under cover police for shouting 'pills pills who's got pills' so i'm now wary of doing it this year!!

I seem to remember lots of people walking round the Stone Circle at night last year shouting things like "Acid, acid, who wants to buy some lovely acid?" etc Kind of like Yorkshire Post sellers but with more hair!
I don't think you can go far wrong wherever you are wherever you're going as a girl hiding your stash in that most holy of holes but I guess that depends on your disposition and how much you want to take in! 
My friends all got stopped on the way in year before last in a car coming from London. The cops searched literally the ONLY person out of the five of them who didn't have anything on her. Whether this was deliberate stupidity or accidental who knows but cue one VERY relieved phone call from them once they'd got away.
Moral of the story, it's just plain dumb luck I reckon, combined with a bit of nous. Don't go parading round in a big rasta hat / t-shirt etc with ganja leaves all over it, don't get stoned or pissed or anything at all until you're safely onsite, be polite and respectful if you do get searched or pulled over and don't risk it if your future career or whatever depends on you not having a record. And do NOT under any circumstances just bosch your whole stash if you see the cops approaching!

never had any problems with the oldbill in all me times of going,
Except once  the 1st time we took the kids. 07 i think it was.
on the weds afternoon i was sat rolling a J while the kids were playing and stinky was getting some drinks  when all of a sudden TWO coppers appeared over me shoulder and ask for a word  my heart started to beat a little faster.
he asked me to hold onto me J and me Q off smoke and then asked to have a look through me bag,
once hed gone through me bag he said try not to be so public and have a good festival
what a nice man he was

Wow, nice copper!
The plan for us is to mask the smell (somehow, not sure yet) and probably just store a small amount in our bras. There's four of us going, so plenty of bra space to go around

First time I went in 1991 we had a big group - bout 6 or 7 tents all in a circle. After breakfast there was a lot of preparation going on for the day. Each person had their festival programme on the ground in front of them - you might call it a rolling programme  - when up walked 2 officers. They stood and had a chat for 5mins, asked where we were from etc., then wandered off after telling us to have a nice day - we did !

the coppers inside are cool.
one time when it was very muddy i potted to coppers walking along, one was a sargent and the other a cunstabble. The sargent had his waterproofs inside his wellies and the other had theirs outide his wellies. I went up to them and had a laugh with them about uniform, ie which one was propperly dressed and that i thaught it was better to have the water proofs outide the wellies as drips etc wouldnt get inside the boots.
Anyway they went off happy, and i relisied that id had a fat stinky green blunt on the go the whole time.

Reminds of being up at Stone Circle last year. Must've been about 4am on Monday morning. We got offered nearly every drug under the sun after sitting down for about 10 minutes. Loads of people just coming up to us and asking if we were interested in what they had to sell.
I don't know if it was because it was a last minute rush to sell their goods, but I couldn't believe how much there was on offer and how easy it was to get hold of..

Reminds me of the time I'd been to the first Love Parade in Leeds, at Roundhay Park. Let's just say it was a messy day all round which culminated in a transport nightmare which meant we had to walk all the way back into town which took hours and hours. Anyway, once we got into town, we still had another 10 miles to go back to my house but they'd closed the city centre down so no-one could come get us, taxis included. So cue me having a really earnest loved up serious conversation with this copper. Well, more like AT this copper really. Who I seem to remember looking totally bemused as I stood there ranting and raving and rambling on like a mad woman. Eventually my friend dragged me away and pointed out the folly of my ways. The coppers were extremely tolerant that day too (I don't suppose they had much choice with that many ravers around) but there are limits.

By the way, the little plastic containers from inside a kinder suprise make for a great, reasonably airtight, little stash pot.

Only Users Lose Drugs!!!!
last few years I've been in the east camper fields, and almost everytime I came into the festival (usually twice a day) I'd get pulled for a search!
The only time I was carrying a little I actually kicked off a little at the security guard saying they were taking the preverbial searching me each time I came in and that it must be some kind of discrimination in practice and demanded to see a supervisor. "Is it cos I is a dreadlock?" type thing. Never seen them back down so quickly, and was quickly ushered on my way after barely even a pat down, when previously it had been emptying pockets, searching everything in my pockets, pocket linings, wallet, tobacco tin, the works!
Once inside there never seems to be any grief, but it's getting it through in the first place, and seeing the look on the guards faces when they do find a stash - sickening!
Worst ever festival for anti-drugs I been too was Reading in the early 90's - 3 years on the trot had my stash taken by the fuzz, one lot was even patrollling through the camping area obviously looking for it! Crap festie anyway, never been back since, though did also discover Glastonbury about this time too!
