Cleoclaptrap Posted July 2, 2022 Report Share Posted July 2, 2022 2 hours ago, Alvoram said: I never did post an update to this... The ban being revoked was because it was never intended for the public in the first place. It was intended for the caterers on Sticklinch. They weren't allowed to sell crisps that were not bought at the in-fest wholesale area... (Where they had a specific brand in compostable bags.) So there you have it... The rule was that caterers couldn't bring crisps on site, but could buy the compostable ones from the wholesale market on site... Somehow this got confused by security to mean that we couldn't bring crisps... No biggie, mistakes happen. They even saved all of the confiscated crisps at the gate for people to go back and collect them if they wanted. Thanks for the update. So nothing to do with cows and definitely nothing to do with innocent punters on gate A then. Glastonbury daftness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hence why they wanted the traders to use the compostable bags. It was the farmer who owned sticklinch who insisted on it. No idea if anyone came back to claim, but I worked the last shift on Sunday and security came round with a big bag of them and dished them out amongst us all Edited July 2, 2022 by philipsteak Sunday, not Wednesday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spindles Posted July 2, 2022 Report Share Posted July 2, 2022 I swear this nonsense got me proper stressed on Wednesday. I'd chosen to hide my contraband in a multipack of mini cheddars and was sweating it the whole journey as it was in the hold of the coach with no way to easily get it out.

The only reason I got told this is because a lot of the security team up there were from Derby / Derbyshire, so spent a lot of time talking to them. 3 hours ago, Cleoclaptrap said: Thanks for the update.

But it makes a lot more sense now as to why there was confusion. The ban was intended to be for caterers / retail only, but was miscommunicated. (I have no idea what / if anything happened at gate A, sorry, I'm only talking about Sticklinch here.) I did see one person collect a multipack for sure! (We were camped right next to the security post / gate on Row A2) But I have absolutely no idea how they, or anybody, would have known that they could go and collect them, so I guess most were left uncollected.

Well to tell you the truth in all this excitement I kinda lost track myself. But being this is my MASSIVE PRONG, the most powerful PRONG in the world and would blow your head clean off, you've gotta ask yourself one question: "Do I feel lucky?" Well, do ya, punk?

The best thing about this new wave of trolls is that they’re so shit at trolling, it’s actually quite fun to watch them embarrass themselves 😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
