Don't the returnable cups have to be sent off site for cleaning / sterilising / checking leaks and so on  before they can be re-used? must add alot to the overall price compared to a paper cup.

Fairly sure I remember them being cleaned behind the bar at Hurricane - granted that would also be extra equipment required by every vendor - centralised would possibly work better.  I'm fairly sure they could pull it together to clean them somewhere on site.

Just a shorty stroll from car park to camping.
Stunning location.
Virtually no litter.
No mud baths.
Very reasonably priced good beer.
Communal fire pit.

Communal firepit sounds like a belter of an idea though.

You mean the one that is 80% s**t and piss? Nice.

Although I'll stick with Roskilde, and vote for the 6 days pre-camping - some brilliant camps at Roskilde throwing some brilliant parties...
