i know these people, and this is not “standerd” im not in possesion of the facts so will comment no further,

fair play for the comment, a bit strong mentioning names,

I stand representing the *** on this issue. We bagged up as much rubbish as we could on the Sunday morning and took it on site. As the photos point out, the rest of the rubbish was arranged in to piles to allow for collection. And collected it was, long before this thread was started. It’s hard work tidying up after the people when running these events and would be good if people could take a bit more responsibility for their own rubbish, but if they don’t we WILL go back and clear it up.

If anyone cares to go down to the site now they will see that it is TOTALLY DEVOID of all rubbish. i personally went down there today after all of the fuss caused here and cleared the last of the bits from the floor (which wasn’t actually all that much) something we had always intended to do with this site. This thing has been blown out of all proportion and quite blatantly been used as an excuse to drag our name through the mud, hence why the original poster has NEVER made an attempt to get in touch with us personally before he brandished our name all over the internet. Blatantly BAIT! He has tried to spur people on here to do his dirty work by posting our email contact on here also. Also as an attendee of this party who revisited the site the least he could have done is taken a bag himself rather than having a big whinge about it.

Leigh Wood was spotless after we finished there.

I am negotiating access to clear the rubbish after the notorious gorge party last sat that made the paper because of the moaning doctor. And none of this is to do with the slagging off some people are unjustifiably trying to give us on here but because I will take personal responsibility for ensuring the rubbish left after parties is cleared away.

We’re good hard working people, if you choose to label us based on your own assumptions that’s up to you.

It seems to me that this was just an attempt to slag us off publicly but looking at a lot of the responses here it has not worked and I’m glad. It light take us a while sometime (quite rarely actually unless the police force us off site before we can clear up) but at least we go back and clear up. I’ve seen party sites left in a hell of a state by rigs that just up and leave, never to return. Naming us in the title of this thread is further evidence that this was just bait. If anyone has any further issues regarding this our contact emails are one here and we’re all ears.

Peace out.

was all fine (though its still one persons word against another without further evidence) until he mentioned the “moaning doctor” (which has been well reported in the mainstream media) – the doctor, same as everyone else has a right to “moan” and go to the press if he’s been kept awake by raves.. and its guys like him what patch ravers up when they’ve fucked up from drugs.. but at least someone is taking responsibility..

I accept the action is bait when it comes from someone claiming to be a “fellow raver” (and the motives may even be linked to rivalry between crews and/or competition for legal rave venues) – but a normal would have just gone straight to the OB or the mainstream with their photos!

In East Anglia the crews didn’t even get a “warning” from within the scene the locals took the power back into their own hands and contacted the Police, Councils and media asking for “more robust action” and it happened. People I know lost stacks and others went to jail…

it has been posted on other sites as well with the exact same title. ill see what the other mods reckon, maybe edit the title now its sort of been resolved and remove it from being a sticky…
off topic, but are you off to that spin psycle thing this weekend ellie?

possibly, peace in the park up here, but doubt theres gonna be any psytrance 🙁 im off to zogg tonight so ill decide tomo depending on how rank i feel…

Also with regards to the story in the paper. We were buried in the wood with a 1k system. Hardly a massive rave that would keep people up all night. I agree that people have the right to complain but sometimes this is just nitpicking by people who want to use their position to gain sympathy for something that really is not as big a problem as they make out.

Peace out.

aluminium fetches a pretty penny at the scrap yard…

Personally i don’t think it’s entirely the rigs fault. Anyone who went to the party and littered is equally as guilty. Any rubbish people make they gotta be responsible and take it with them, Don’t just rely on others to clean up for you. 😉

So you think there could be some “tit for tat” going on here?

s’far as i’m aware this was posted on SJ, tribal living and bare more public forums. as much as we could have hushed it up immediately, there was already a 10-page thread on squatjuice and names/pics up all over the web. the OP did a fairly throrough job of publisicin it
