Set
out below is a list of common sense do’s and don’ts.
It is by no way complete, but comprehensive enough to cover
nearly all aspects of the equipment in use.

In no way must an organiser or user of
the castle be intoxicated or under the influence of drugs or
alcohol.
At
the allocated time, the castle must be shut down and deflated,
making sure that the equipment are put in the bags provided
for their storage in order to be ready for collection.
We
hope that the event is successful and runs smoothly.
