Thread Name: Help: Quiet Festival nights?
Subject: RE: Help: Quiet Festival nights?
The problem with yobs is worrying...some people had hundreds of pounds worth of damage done....a couple of them got into a caravan awning and swung on the frame pulling the awning away from the side of the van...the van, a newish one was very badly damaged...several tents were written off..some people went home. This was all in the first couple of days, when we were a curiosity I suppose. I can imagine that some of those affected would think twice about coming next year....B&B accomodation is expensive, and usually full that week, most who choose camping have no other choice.

I enjoy stewarding at festivals, it makes me feel 'part of it' but I will not do the campsite again...sorry Paul, and I think there will be others who will make the same decision. So the person who complained about the noise will have a quiet time...if there is anyone to make sure he has a caravan to come back to!!
