I'm very happy to have CCTV if it's used properly, i.e. to catch thieves and violent people (including used to prosecute overzealous security guards who assault people). *edit better not say anything more*
So as well as the undercover "spies" that the police and security had last year, we also have to deal with CCTV.
My advice is to keep it real, be discrete.
*edit*

I've emailed Elvis to ask him straight out about this and he vehemently denies it:
"DEFINITELY not - we have fought hard to stop this from happening - No CCTV at Glade."

WOW! Looks like we all jumped the gun there then!
All rants and bad feelings re: CCTV retracted and sealed in nuclear waste grade steal containers then buried 1000 feet down an old mine.

I suppose the thing that gets me about the control of booze thing is that I want to drink the stuff I want to drink, not the stuff anyone thinks I should drink. I care about what I drink and the only way to ensure that have what I want is to bring it myself. I don't want overpriced crap beer and wine nor can I afford to drink spirits at bar prices in the quantity I like.
*sigh* I suppose I will have to work out where on my anatomy I can stash a bottle of tequila  ... a right pain in the arse

Got my Glade ticket today!  woo hoo
Rule number 9 under Information and Notification.....'Due to licensing restrictions, no alcohol can be taken on site by ticket holders. There will be random searches.'
Rule number 1'........All caravans and camper vans will be searched'
*sigh*....and no kites, or anything that may be used in an offensive or dangerous manner  , you go under trees at your own risk......
Ah well

I'm deffo bringing spirits too; lots of lovely polish honey vodka (unless i can't resist drinking it beforehand)
Resealable juice cartons are the best as they are opaque.
