Subject: RE: So how was Sidmouth 2012 for you?
To follow up on Steve's comment about alcohol, the bar sells as much non-alcoholic drink as alcoholic. If the bar was opened up to customers outside of the marquee then I would expect as many, if not more, non-alcoholic sales. The bar is run extremely professionally, with rigorous ID checking, and in all the years I have been on the volunteer bar staff we have never had a problem with drunkenness and bad behaviour. I see the bar as a service to the festival goers and a means of raising money for the festival, and if we can do more in both areas then I think that would be a good thing. Better they buy from a well run festival bar than from the Coop.
