The Square Festival 2009

haha I was gonna say the sheep were f**king awesome!!! nice one man I think the 4 can thing was a council obligation or something because it was originally meant to be unlimited booze in the campsite and I cant think of any other reason why it would have changed. I know the organisers and they defo would not want just 4 cans per person in the campsite, that is a bit feckin rediculous. like I said tho, use ur intuition and throw it under/over the fence! or dress up as a friggin sheep!

Heard security say it was police that put the four can thing in place...mind you...I walked through with 24 cans of strongbrew under my arm (having said it was for the four of us) and a flask of jackdaniels in my rucksack and they didn't bat an eyelid!!! Not sure why but I think they must have got stricter as the day went on.

First time at this festival and I'll agree there were a few hiccups - the long long long long long wait to get in and the cans limit and I would have appreciated the toilets getting a clean more than once a day (but I survived).

The bands were excellent and we had no trouble camping in the second field, loads of space it was great.

I think I'll be going back next year because I had a great time - there seemed to be a lot of stuff not happening like mentioned but we used that opportunity to go into Borth and chill on the beach, go for a swim etc - and if I'd done my homework on the festival I wouldn't have brought any food with me and just picked it all up locally - the local butchers is great!

If I go next year I'll take my nephews and do the same thing - beach for the day - bands at night.

I did have a great time and we took 4 festival noobs who all had a great time as well so hopefully next year they'll learn from the mistakes and it will be even better.

Funniest sight all weekend (apart from the sheep) was the police officer patrolling the crowd during Skindred who stopped and sniffed the air everytime she passed people smoking - have they run out of money for sniffer dogs in Borth?
