[what size tent can you use on campervan pitch]

Do you need a campervan ticket if you are staying in a tent next to a friend's campervan, or is it fine with just the standard ticket?

Thanks

[A question about arriving on Thursday]

Hi,

This is probably a question which doesn't have a definitive answer but any advice would be much appreciated.

My friends and I are arriving on the Thursday morning and, as there are two sets of us, intending to meet at a service station on the way. However, in case we can't meet on the way what are the chances of us being able to find each other and enough space to camp together (two tents)? What campsites are less busy on the Thursday? My friend has suggested near the John Peel stage and we are not worried about being anywhere lively.

Many thanks!

Name: Gemma

Age : 27

Campsite (if applicable) : Red

Veteran of how many V years (or Vnewb) : 2005, 2006, 2009

Most looking forward to seeing : So many but rather excited about Florence and the Machine and Madness!

Fascinating fact: Last year I shamed a guy who was about to throw a cup of his piss into the crowd not to do it. He put it on the floor in front of him and someone walked past and kicked it all over his and his friend's feet. Ha!

[VIRGIN MEDIA PRESALE]

It took me about half an hour, then I got an error code, then I had to enter everything again... but I got two red camping tickets! Although reading this thread has made me panic that I've entered my email address wrong or something, and now the confirmation email is taking ages. Arghh! Stress!

[Well as expected really]

Saw a guy "filling up" a Carling cup but when he saw our shocked and disgusted faces I think shame kicked in and he just put it on the floor. Best thing is that someone walked past and knocked it all over his and his friend's feet!

[Moving between campsites]

Oh well, I guess we'll just have to make some new friends then!

Thanks guys

[Moving between campsites]

Hi, a friend and I have tickets for the yellow campsite but some other friends have tickets for the red - does anyone know if you are allowed into other campsites if you are not camping in them? Also, what's the yellow one like? I've only ever camped in red before.

Thanks
