a hot stinking full of piss and shit dirty box is ok??
Yes. And you don't have to choose the ones that are most dirty. There are always some that are OK.

Don't you have to pay for using the toilets at the presscamp? I think I was there last year, but I was a bit drunk...

I'm thinking of thinking of falling in love

here are some official Zombi tips:
-Bring hard alcohol. It's less weight per litre alcohol.
-Bring toilet paper. It's handy for more than you might think.
-Get an insulation mat, the ground can get cold.
-Don't bring too many clothes. You'll be filthy and smelly anyway.
-Go vegetarian.
-Walk around the campsite. Talk to people. It's fun.
Why that???:eek: :eek: :eek:

yeah if you are desperate! :rolleyes:


Indeed, They work fine as well as you don't mind the smell and the thing you sit on is (seems) clean.

But this can not be said enough:
Bring toilet paper, you always get in the situation where you REALLY need to use the plastic toilet and there's no paper...

You might get a fairly clean one or a bad one, tis all about luck

But when you are busting then you dont reeally have much choice! :rolleyes: :D
You open one and if it's not clean enough for you, you go to the next one.

And the flushed ones can be just as dirty as the other ones if you have bad luck... *sigh*

5. Get one plastic drinking glass and carry it with you at all times to spare having to continuously pay for the glasses

huh? Why that? If you bring back the glasses you'll also get your money back.
Just don't throw them away but bring them back!

But true, it also makes sense to carry one of those cups with you - just because you might want to fill it with your own beer/anything else at the campground and take it with you inside the festival area.

if you carry your own you get served faster too
