In previous years a degree of rank amateurism has been evident at this festival.
Tonight it descended further into insanity.
Dead on 11 pm the bar closed - no problem with this.
At the same time the organisers decided to remove ALL the money from the festival area. Unfortunately they had completely forgotten that 200+ still at the festival had paid a refundable £3 deposit on the glass and may want a refund. BTW these were not branded"festival" glasses - just a random selection of glasses that happened to be branded with a beer name - including keg lagers.
After 15 minutes notes appeared behind the bar (the person responsible for taking the glass deposits at a separate location had already run away to hide!). To get the glass deposit back customers then had to find an extra £2 in order to get a £5 note back. This process was not quick!
