    I always thought it was the other way round. If you have a bottle of water open or anything open you have to bin it to stop people bringing in booze.


    They seem to let me in no problem. It may be that they just pick and choose who to punish.

    and by the time you have been served it is time to start waiting in line again. Never getting any alcoholic effect.

    "Get loaded in the park" is bad for waiting.

    guys... can we try and be a bit happier here?

    I didn't start this thread to moan about festivals, but for all of us to share ideas about how to make the experience cheaper.

    okay... well, let's concerntrate on trying to make it cheaper then!!

    How about travel?
    If you're getting the train you can go through quidco / pigsback I believe and get cash-back / points... I'll look into that and come back.

    It may not be very festival stylee, but as I reach my mid 30's, the prospect of a tent doesn't quite appeal, so swix of us have chipped in to hire one of these
