No glass bottles were aloud in so we had to empty our plastic bottles of bought water away to pour all the Bacardi breezers in. Thankfully they never found the cases of wine . Just a thought.

Saw that on the site regulations so had to buy a box of wine instead of a bottle......

so does that mean the search the van on entry

Not bringing any fire to this one, managed to scald my hand at the weekend, my finger's lost a bit of skin & has a stupid great dressing on it to keep it clean , don't fancy it soaking up paraffin, looks like the fire performing is down to Pete this time

Only the dodgy looking ones we had a load of Teenagersn in our van which is why i think we were stopped... noone else in our croud was just us lol

thats understandable

Amanda will have to pour her bicardi breezers into a plastic beaker in the awning

Just checked on the website, it does say "no glass on site", just make sure it's not clinking as you drive in

"Family camping area available for people with young children, allocated on a first come first served basis. Ask on gate for a family camping sticker."
Not sure how busy it'll get, or if they'll get funny that most of us haven't got young kids Trusting Alans superior knowledge of the event on this one

I was wondering about this.
Can I easily get a family camping area pass when I turn up on my own without any kids?

Just say that the rest of your (Bongo) family are arriving later

Let's start a list of who's going to be there and what day are you arriving.

Snow_Kiter (1) - Thursday afternoon

dont worry folks they havent searched us in 10 years, a lot of the rules are health and safty. single people just say you are going to join family later. what they dont like in family camping is van loads of young men just there for a pig piss up, but you do get some very noisey familys to. but we have never seen any trouble there. family camping is first come first served as is all camping, but theres plenty of room and you pitch were you want should be no probs.it is a party weekend so it will be noisey every wear, bring it on. sooty.

its no probs muzorewa, there is big partys in family camping, what i mean is they dont like to see about 12 young lads fall out of a ford transit and about 12 more in another one drink all day and all night and make it a nightmare for every one else, they put them in by the fair camping so they dont sound to loud. we will all be a bongo family no probs. sooty.

I'll have my flags flying



Just make sure you insist that you're meeting the rest of your family group in family camping, we'll save spaces

Have a great time - you lucky b*ggers
