i rang up a few times before i actually got through. They seemed rubbish at getting back to answering machine messages so I assume the same may be true of email. I'd be tempted to call them just to be sure.

I got a response after a few days, not the best at getting back to you. I asked if we could all get pitches together, they said no problem.

Just a quick question - if loads of us are taking 2+ man tents why do we not share? I'm not being g*y or anything but what is the point in taking more kit than needed and wasting cash?

If it isnt the done thing then I might book my own pitch and take my own tent - it just seems like a waste and all.

2-man tents are generally quite small... for the sake of 6 quid i'd rather have my own space!

BTW-

They say no BBQ's on the grass, do you think this means actually resting on the grass or any BBQ that stands on the grass????????

Having done a festival by bike, with a 2-man tent, I can confirm that not only are they quite small, but bike gear takes up a fair bit of room inside too. I nabbed myself a Vango Alpha 300 for this year and it's absolutely frickin cavernous - you can accommodate 6 people inside for a late night of heavy drinking.
