  • Apart from the weather it was an infinite improvement on last year. My missus hated the queues though!

  • Depressing. Was really looking forward to Hawtin but couldn\'t even get in the tent :(

  • I saw a lad crying after he got gripped by a sniffer dog. He was stupid for having drugs on him but it was a horrible way to start a festival seeing that. Loved Foals and James Holden

  • I thought it was great. Apart from the weather, which let things down a bit. They still need to sort out the toilet situation

  • I was there last year and thought the bars were vastly improved but not the toilet situation - which led to some heavy handed police/security action for people peeing against the fence. The police presence was a downer as i saw young people led off in handcuffs - I’m sure a stern warning and confiscation would have done the business in scaring the shit out of young people. Not very relaxed, not very cool.
