Regarding camping at festivals, with 'staff for stalls' and 'mates' - some places have limits for the staff. My complaint is that I am looking at going to one in which the 'staff' and 'normal attendees' are put in separate camping areas. I don't mind paying 'normal price' for attending, even though I will be helping out my friend on the stall (might even have some items on her stall too) - but having to be in separate camping areas will be a real pain, as several of us were planning to camp together. We will no longer be able to organise food etc easily, as now we will require 2 smaller tents rather than the one big one.
