    I know... I know all too well... the mental and physical scars of 2006 still haven't healed :cry:

    Actually, I remember my friends bringing police tape and cornering off a section for us in 2006 :lol:

    I'm not TOO worried about us all camping right on top of each other, just so long as we're close enough to see our tent if we come see y'all for a BBQ and we can have drunken shenanigans until the wee hours :mrgreen:

    We picked ours up from the sorting office last night... including the lovely pink car park pass :lol:

    Oh and we've got a sacktruck so we should be ok in regards to transporting stuff :)

    Right, I won't worry about bringing any BBQ's for the Thursday then :) We're gonna bring the usual BBQ gubbins... burgers, batches, sausages etc... If I'm feeling adventurous or flush I might partake in quesadilla making or some kebabs :D
    My friend Damien is bringing a stereo so we'll see which is more powerful... hopefully we'll be camping close to you guys so we won't be dragging half our tent contents across Donny fields just for a BBQ :lol:

    I'm glazing over your 'Southern Softie' comment... :evil:

    Between the two of us we have 60 cans of beer, wine, a bottle of Sailor Jerry rum (premixed with 2 litre bottles of coke) and Vodka (also premixed)... I thought that was about the norm :?

    Usually, they still have tickets for sale when you get to the site from their box office. It's either that or search eBay hoping for a miracle.
