Where is everyone planning on camping at reading ?

Right, there's a load of campsites, I'll give you my own overview, everyone has their own opinions however.

Red - Chilled but cool, a bit secluded

Green - My personal favourite, close to the arena, still a party area, but you can sleep.

Yellow - Batsh1t mental, don't bother even trying to sleep. Gets a bit horrible on sunday night. Closest to the Arena.

Brown - Used to be the mad one, said to be rough, last year it was tiny and far away, so didn't bother going there. Though apparently somebody managed to get a butane tank (for big ass BBQs) in there, causing all sorts of kafuffle

Purple - Also very party like, but more toned down than Yellow

White - Far away, chilled out, family and relaxed camping.

Indigo - Doesn't exist any more.

Am I missing anything? And as I said, this is from my personal experience and from what I've heard, everyone has their own experiences.

Green is my favourite, if it's your first time camping, you've probably heard this from everyone before, but best to be nice:

Don't camp near toilets, stay at least five metres away from the paths when camping, it gets bad (I learnt that in 07), loud, people fall in, it's unavoidable. And have a great festival!

Hopefully camp in green this year, was in green in 06,07 and err I thought Purple/Indigo last year, green was full, we were in a campsite near the bridge, there was basically the bridge one campsite ..then bit further on one we were in..that was indigo/purple right?

what's the campsite to the left of reaper bridge, backing on to the river?

anyone know?

Me and my mates are planning on arriving at 8 AM on thursday morning but we need to go to school at 10:30 AM to collect our results so do you think we will have time to go to Reading at 8, get our wristbands on and set up our tents by about 10:00 AM ?

Well I wanted to camp in Orange again this year since I had a great time there last year, but my mate's girlfriend has been convinced that Red is the best, but I'm not sure

Anyone have any opinions on Red?
