It's not good, I know, but they have to put stuff on the licence for the council. I would have thought they'd be sensible and looking out more for dealers and violent types (I hope anyway!) don't they have cctv at other festivals now anyway? I think they do at glasto. Sadly it's probably going to be more and more common. _________________ Glade Gabba Mobile Disco - next year with batteries Joyous Sticky Bush Burbler Joined: 07 Jul 2005 Total posts: 4488 Location: Sunny Hove Posted: Wed Jul 16, 2008 5:11 pm   Post subject:     Re: Festival crime wave?   on glad talk there was a discussion about this document and apparently a lot has changed since it was made earlier this year. plus i cant remember where it came from but i think it was one of the organisers that there wasnt any cctv nor was there ever meant to be. who knows? in reality we have no idea. lets just hope the security are sensible and look after us, after all thats one of the reasons they are there, and obviously if they catch anyone doing anything illegal and obviously they will act. If its illegal outside the festival its illegal inside. _________________ A wife is for life, not just for Waveform.

All this information comes from a general plan that covers all possible areas - much of the information has changed since the plan was published...such as number of festival goers and the alcohol policy...i would imagine that there are other changes too, that we're not aware of. _________________ Glade it up! ouzodave Has completely lost touch with reality Joined: 13 Jul 2005 Total posts: 1172 Location: Draycott in the Moors Posted: Wed Jul 16, 2008 8:06 pm   Post subject:  Re: Festival crime wave?   Is there CCTV in the Portaloos? _________________ Tis Winter time....bah humbug.

Still out of all the glades for me, the security presence was appropriate & i didnt see or hear about any upsetting / unjustified incidences. _________________ A wife is for life, not just for Waveform. festive al Has far too much time on their hands Joined: 21 Jun 2006 Total posts: 897 Location: Stroud,Glos Posted: Tue Jul 22, 2008 11:00 pm   Post subject:  Re: Festival crime wave?   2 people in our camp had their sleeping bags stolen and they were either side of mine, luckily my tent was ok _________________ I can't see clearly now the eyedrops have gone Dr. Don General Malpractitioner Joined: 26 Jul 2005 Total posts: 5938 Location: Bristol, England Posted: Wed Jul 23, 2008 1:40 pm   Post subject:   Re: Festival crime wave?   I didn't see any trouble at all, security were spot on as far as I could tell. _________________ There he goes.

I think the guy hopped it into the woods though. Apart from that, I didn't hear of anything else and yeah the security were indeed spot on this year. Really smiley everytime I came across them and genuinely friendly - I sat down near the main stage at one point to have a cigarette and the dudes nearby let on and made sure I was alright (I was sober at the time, must have looked a bit rough round the edges ) _________________ Twist Forum Addict Joined: 19 May 2008 Total posts: 372 Location: Lancashire Posted: Mon Jul 28, 2008 3:28 pm   Post subject:    Re: Re: Festival crime wave?   The girl who got punched was near us, horrible story. I didn't get anything nicked but my tent had been open a couple of times - bastards couldn't find anything though, messy tents ftw! _________________ Glade Gabba Mobile Disco - next year with batteries davemac Zealot Joined: 26 Jul 2005 Total posts: 279 Location: Bath Posted: Mon Jul 28, 2008 3:34 pm   Post subject:     Re: Re: Festival crime wave?   You must have been right next to us Twist... we were at the top the field above Information near to one of the exits on the edge of the camping area just above a gazebo. Heard the commotion with the girl but left the chasing to the more sprightly vigilantes. hope they caught the fucker... _________________ Fuck - where are my reading glasses?

You were right near us! I did get told what happened but I was a bit munted so all this I'm about to say may be bollocks - anyway - I seem to remember he was caught, and he apparently had a car on site that was filled with people's stuff. I assume he got what was coming to him, anyway. Knob. If anyone got anything nicked it may be worth checking if it was recovered. _________________ Glade Gabba Mobile Disco - next year with batteries davemac Zealot Joined: 26 Jul 2005 Total posts: 279 Location: Bath Posted: Mon Jul 28, 2008 3:56 pm   Post subject:       Re: Re: Festival crime wave?   I had a quite weird experience my self actually... It was daytime and I came back to the tent (our lot were already there) and said ' hello darling' to mejulie when this lad jumped up from behind a (very) nearby tent and sprinted off! I couldn't decide whether he was a tent thief or a fucked up munter! Thing is, there were loads of people around and it was broad daylight so I decided he was messing about. Needless to say I got the piss taken out of me constantly for the next 2 hours... _________________ Fuck - where are my reading glasses?
