Following the suggestion that T D L might like to contribute, here are our thoughts.
1. Please put some info about performers in the programme. We asked Doug who Roy Goulding was, as he was in Expectations for hours, every day. He explained, and said we wouldn't want to see him. We ignored Heretic, because we didn't know who they were. If we'd known it was Jon Loomes, we'd have been there.
2.With regard to the outside disco at Enigma. Yes, it was noisy, but it was keeping the queue of yoofs entertained, and stopping them running amok. That's not an excuse though, it shouldn't have been open during daylight hours.
3.Yes, I have trouble with stairs and cobbles,but that's Rochester, I live with it.We can manage the walk to and fro the GI, but would rather not have to run the gamut of the yoof population to get there.
Perhaps you should consult with Clive Lever and Dave Reay, they are unsighted which is a greater handicap than ours.
4.It was a shame that the visitor centre wasn't used more, having no licence keeps the yobs away.
5.If gigs were more spaced out, it might also keep the yobs out of town,provided the pubs were devoted to the Festival,and not to tv football etc.
6. Leave the gigs in Strood,if the pub wants to support the Festival, but yes, bring Ron and The Strangers into town, they deserve more of a hearing.
7. If you set up a campsite along the Medway there would be huge security issues,such as we already have to contend with at Broadstairs.
8. Lastly,Trevor has a theory to expound ,which is possibly very contentious. This was his first "Dry" Festival", he can't drink with his heart tablets. For the first time he felt far less threatened by the yobs and chavs, and wonders if the amount of drink consumed by ourselves,heightens our anxiety levels. Is there a doctor on the Cat who can confirm or deny this? (Maybe it's the tablets)

Thanks for giving us a hearing
