quick question - coach tickets

[rhysieg]

a friend got a coach ticket online because he couldent get just an average weekend camping. i thought you HAVE to go by coach if you get these tickets, just wondering if that is the case? will he be able to get his ticket and drive up and ignore the coach?

dont post if you "think" you know the answer please i want a definite answer

They give out the wristbands on the coach so if you dont get on the coach, you dont get your tickets.

I bought mine here, says you pick them up when you get there from the big green coach tent. I'm planning on ditching the coach and picking them up there.

If the coach tickets are anything like the arrangements that exist for R&L it's to dowith the site's license that a certain proportion of people can't come by car (i.e. have to be on coach) and they enforce this by giving them out on the coach.

You'll just need to find some friends who're going by car and give most of your stuff to them so you can travel light (and slow!) on the bus

Surely if you were desperate for tickets the coach option isn't that big a deal. I take it the guy who's now selling them on ebay didn't pick a coach stop near his town? I went by coach in 2008, and i'm going by coach this year. You get on and they give you a ticket which you have to exchange at a ticket tent when you're inside. There's no way you'll be able to get your tickets unless you get on the coach....

I got the seetickets coach last year and we were told that we have to get the coach and we then had to stand in some queue to get wristbands. The queue was right by the car park so you could probably get away with not going on the coach. We had to get coach tickets again this year as were too late too get normal tickets.

Contemplating whether to go by car aswell as is much easier than pissing about with those stupid coaches
