Default Tent pick up
Hi there

Only recently joined the forum so hi everyone! Suffice to say I am bloody excited !

I've ordered a tent to pick up from Cosy Camper website and they have instructed me to go to their stall 'located in J4 or J7' to pick it up.

Now I've been to Glasto a few times so know my way around, but this doesn't ring any bells, sounds like a grid reference on a map but the site map has no such references. Or could be a stall reference but I don't know how to find out where this would be.

Does anyone know what they are getting at?

Thanks in advance!!

The different markets all have references so you are looking for areas 4 or 7 in J market. Your best bet is to head for one of the Info points and ask them to show you where J4 and J7 markets are on the detailed maps they give out. I've got one of last year's at home. I'll try to remember to have a look and see if I can point you roughly in the right direction this evening.

Thanks for your quick reply tort (and thanks for your amazingly informative website!!)

It would be really helpful to find out before I get there as they are asking me which one I would prefer to pick up from. But they didnt explain what the references meant of course!!

I'm planning on heading to Bushy Ground so whichever is closest to there is best obvs.

Basically I thought I'd get a quicker reply from the forum than their customer service and I was right

Cheers

If they are both in J market then they will be very close together which would surprise me. Is it definitely J4 & J7? Might be worth double checking they have the letters right.

J4 & J7 are the market areas in the dance village. J7 north end, by the bar, J4 south side by the First Aid.

Some of the big detailed maps have the market id's on them, though not all.

Just seeing if it possible to add map as an attachment as the album option auto shrinks it too much....

1st attachment too small, try again....

2nd attempt failed, am guessing even attached jpgs are shrunk dimension wise when uploading....

J7 is actually at the bottom of Lower Mead on the track between John Peel & the Pyramid but yeah they are both in that general area which seems really odd. Why have 2 stalls so close together. Either way J market is the closest to Bushy Ground so that's a result!

OK thanks for your efforts tort and Roo, much obliged. I'll see if they can give me any more details, seems odd that they would be so close together doesnt it. But sounds like the stalls will be down in the area I want so I think I should be ok.
