I have never drunk in the Castle - but I certainly do agree that there should be something for everyone. There are people who prefer the gastro pub, those who want a child friendly place, those who like cocktails and those who want to watch sport. Surely we are all capable of accepting that in a diverse area like ED there should be a diverse selection of places to relax and have a drink. Why should anyone (even if taking the p*ss) think that everything should cater for their tastes?

Indeed Cassius, they should not paint the castle, or spruce it up in any way. All of the lovely Paddy builders and local artesan types need somewhere to go for a drink after a hard days work. I would rather they had somewhere separate to relax, where they are not worried about spoiling the lovely seats. I hate to see these untidy sorts in Black Cherry.

      I completely agree.   Pride used to be in Brixton and Brockwell Park before it outgrew it and moved to Finsbury Park.  Quite reasonable to accept limitations and respond properly

      Yes, but most posting on here against the festival have not said they hate all festivals, it is about location, scale and footprint, duration of the event, including build and dismantling, and the level of impact on wildlife and residents living close by.    Last year I said on here that I would, reluctantly, accept the three day event, provided it was no more than that and the footprint was not extended to include more of the park. Now it is reasonably clear there is an intention to scale up I think a new, more suitable location must be found.

      Have to admit, I did have to check myself - I've been to many festivals and it seems a bit contradictory to challenge one, but our local park is not the place for a festival of this size. It just needs to either scale down to the environment (smaller footprint, less damage) or find a better location. There is a VAST difference between festivals out in the countryside and the same in an urban park.
