    Really good sound. screen a bit small and needed more screens. Network coverage poor and couldn’t order food. Ordered at the bar in the end. Good food with sesame bun and delicious chips. Queues too long to get drinks. Needed more hands on the pumps. Range of drinks a bit poor! Loo floor flooded and no hand soap which was awkward as we were also eating. Fantastic potential by the water so come on folks please try a bit harder.
