00:00 What's the story with the tents? Can you tell me when they arrived, what's going on with them now?
00:06 Yeah, so the cleaners arrived today and there was people in the queue with tents out ready to go.
00:12 They'd been having a few pre-drinks to get ready and a few coffees and they said they just didn't
00:18 want to get stuck and wanted to be out all day and make sure they got down. So dedication to be fair,
00:23 sleeping bags, pop-up tents, but they're first in and so they're guaranteed entry at least.
00:29 But yeah, bizarre that people will actually sleep out in the cold all night to come in for Paddy's sake.
