I would at one time (maybe) have joined in the debate regarding the official and the fringe.

Now, having read through this thread, I realise I would be wasting my time, yet again, as happened many years ago when I still had an involvement with the festival. On that occasion I explained in detail the reasoning and the pricing for the three official campsites.

I was almost immediately told by some smart arse that I did not know what I was talking about.

I did not bother to reply.

Suffice it to say that the majority of the so called current debate is to a great extent utter twaddle.

I will equally not respond to any comments on this posting.
