IF YOU WANT THIS EVENT TO HAPPEN AGAIN PLEASE DON'T TRY TO CAMP ANYWHERE ON THE SITE. SECURITY STAFF WILL ASK YOU TO LEAVE!!
YOU'RE WELCOME TO LEAVE CARS OVERNIGHT AND GET A LIFT OR A TAXI HOME AS LONG AS THEY'RE MOVED BY NOON THE NEXT DAY.
WE NEED TO GET THE SITE CLEARED AND BACK IN THE CONDITION IT WAS IN FOR THE FARMER.
LOCAL TAXI PHONE NUMBERS WILL BE POSTED HERE WHEN WE'VE SORTED SOME OUT!
ANYONE WHO TURNS UP ON A BIKE (OF THE ENGINED VARIETY!)
