Come on, guys. Someone here must be camping brown? We're hardly going to have the whole campsite to ourselves..

Not camping in brown, but whats your plans of getting there? I'm gonna be at the site from 9PM on Wednesday waiting until I can get in, so if you're up for beers outside then I'm game.

l usally camp in brown and have done for the last 3 years, but this year, l fancy a change and try Green. But l don't think the Mrs is wanting to change camps so l think we'll end up in Brown anyway.   It depends really on which car park we end up on cos we are only going to get there Thursday morning 9-10 o'clock. But the plan is, Brown/Green.  

Sooo looking forward to next week now, l just need my ticket!!

First time at Leeds for me too and I'll be damned if I'm camping anywhere but Blue. From research it seems like a great place to enjoy the festival but also a great place for you to be able to get away from it all when it counts, and I don't see the point of going to any festival unless you can experience the atmosphere of one. In Brown, I've heard it can become like a ghost town.

blue deff seems where its at. but avoid camping near the paths and too near toilets... we werent even that near them last year and it smelt horrid! but i think someone near us was using a wee tent as a 'dump-ing ground'

If you're lucky you may be avle to squeeze into Orange, there's normally a few spaces left. Unless your camping in Brown for the quietness.

We might be in brown, but we're heading to green first to see if there's any space there. We'll be arriving mid Thursday so there's a good chance we'll end up in brown through lack of space like last year.

[bollyhead]

Well ill be in brown site zone A.

hope to see you there mate.

Same goes for me  

The campsite DJ woke me up a few times last year, so I got back up and soldiered on.
