Mine too and I have to praise the ACO - not something normally seen on this forum but I feel I must.

Due to moving house this weekend I was concerned that maybe the ACO would be starting their annual ticket posting exercise soon, and although maybe it was a bit early, I was worried about the potential that my order may be shipped to my old address.

So I rang the nice ladies at the ticket office to inform them I was in the process of moving. "No problem Mr. Barton, we are printing them now. I'll go and find your tickets personally and make sure they are shipped to you this very day" came the chirpy reply. And, 24 hours later the tickets were signed for at my existing address. No more worries.

Hopefully this is indicative of the ticketing service in general and everyone else has no problems with theirs.

Not long now..........

lol @ Mike

Yeah all tickets are marked by a grid reference to the location in the campsite.

Have managed to find some maps and worked out that we are in zone C.

Hi Brad.
Are the tickets numbered to a particular pitch, or have the ACO just zoned BN.

Mike, Have a look on Beermountain, Mr Toad has posted a pitch diagram for BN.  FS

Have looked on Beermountain map and am disgusted to see that on MB, they have laid out 56 pitches measuring 15x7, this is three times the normal pitch size, all the way down the trackside where Drinking for Holland and others were last year, no wonder regulars have been evicted.
