V seems to be revelling in its 'corporate' image as it gives the festival the opportunity to charge through the nose for the most basic grub without a hint of apology. Similarly absent was any dissent from the muddy masses, who happily queued up to part with even more cash... twice in the case of the beer stands, following the organisers' introduction of drinks tokens. A good way, cynics might argue of collecting cash for, and not dispensing £3.30-a-pint drinks due to tokens being lost. A cheap burger would have been very welcome indeed. As it was, skinflint Brayster supplemented his V diet with cheapbrand pot noodles and beans. Thank you Aldi.
