those little fee's all add up, lol forgot about those in my earlier comment.

How the fuck did you spend so little? 
I pulled out near enough £400 at the ATM's whilst there and i thought i was being pretty stingy with the cash as well

£400 and you didn't go to Shangri-la?
What the fuck were you doing Dom? I must of spent about £120 cash on drinks/food, we had BBQ sorted up till Wednesday/Thursday and I ran out of booze on Friday night.

Didn't bring any booze nor food (apart from snack things) and neither is cheap at the festival - ie: pint of Gaymers is ~£5 and you're paying £6-10 per meal etc. It all mounts up i guess and doesn't help i drink like a fish.
Hopefully there will be a bigger group next time round, was only two of us this year, so bringing BBQ and booze will help things.

Ahh that is understandable, we didnt take much food either but booze is a must, even if it involves two car journeys!

@ dom, im a chef , so made up loads of food that can be warmed up on my gas burner/stove. ie curry, chilli, stew, plus cans of soup and all day breakfast, got a good deal on beer due to knowing a supplier! im good with keeping costs down and only spending what i need to.

God knows how you spent so much money. I took around £200 but only spent £80 including parking - I could never find a bar when I wanted one!
