    Vodafone seem to be offering a free charge station.
    They have some times that are just for Vodafone customers but then times when it's for everyone too.

    As far as I know they take any can of Heineken (whether it was bought on-site or not) and exchange it with a cold one.

    Am I right in saying that there is charge stations for phones in the campsites? Anyone who has been to Aldi lately, have you seen those portable chargers that people on this thread have mentioned or anyone know of a place I can pickup a cheap one?

    The don't exchange cans. You drop your cans in and they count them taking your name, phone number and fingerprint. Then throughout the weekend you can go back and collect however many you like at a time using your scanned fingerprint.

    She's not on it currently.

    She is playing the Electric Powerhouse Stage, (power ballads etc)which is run by Electric Ireland, it doesen't seem to be on any of the apps either:

    Lineup For Electric Powerhouse
    https://www.powerballads.ie/line-up
    (stahe located near the cashpoints by Global Green)

    She plays Saturday night at 7pm to 8pm.

    Also missing from Clashfinder and all the APPS is the whole Mindfield Area, which has 6 plus tents in there, but probably left off due to space limitations.

    Programme here:

    That's what I thought, wouldn't have believed it if I didn't witness it myself. Happened to the two lads ahead of me in the queue on the Friday morning. I'll just put it into a plastic bottle myself I'd say, if nothing else, it'll speed up the queuing process!

    That happened to a friend of mine last year on the Friday morning, we were near on the first ones there (queueing before 9), and probably the first to have something confiscated. Litre of vodka gone because it wasn't transferred at the bottle transfer station by a steward or some bollox.

    If the security give me grief again this year I'll start a dirty protest

    I doubt it, I am actually carrying out "official business" at the festival so I have to go to gate 6 for authorization, just don't know where it is?
