silverfoxnik Posted August 31, 2014 Author Share Posted August 31, 2014 Hi again, I forgot to say that the hall is nowhere near local shops to get lunch/ refreshments etc, so there will be some: Tea/coffee/herbal tea Squash Pastries On sale today, for those who need it. However, if you need more sustenance, there's a local Tesco store about 5 minutes away by car.. Nik Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silvia Bluejay Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 (edited) Jack and I will get on the road later this morning - after The Gig From Hell on Friday evening and a great but tiring gig last night. Not sure we'll be able to arrive in time to catch Jake's talk, so if anyone can take a pic or two of him, I can then add them to my mini-blog of the mini-bash See you later!

spaners Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 Sorry guys but im not able to come down now! Work has to come first unfortunately and I have been summoned. :-( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silverfoxnik Posted August 31, 2014 Author Share Posted August 31, 2014 Hi Folks.. I'm at the venue and have encountered a bit of serious problem! One of the 2 rooms here that I'd planned to use today is now unavailable to us, so it's going to be a much, much tighter squeeze in the hall than is desirable. So we're all going to have to be really, really nice to each other.. One thing it will mean is that we won't have a separate space for Jake and Jack's talks, so we will have to improvise as we get to it. Really sorry about this folks; I hope it's not going to spoil your enjoyment of the day? Nik Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silverfoxnik Posted August 31, 2014 Author Share Posted August 31, 2014 A quick thanks to everyone who came to the West Sussex Mini Bash today and helped make it such an enjoyable day! Thanks also to jakenewmanbass and Happy Jack for their talks, which were informative as well as being really practical and helpful. Have to also thank bluejay for her help with everything leading up the Bash in terms of social media stuff and to Loraine (Mrs Silverfoxnik) for doing such an amazing job keeping everyone fed and watered.. Will try and put some pictures up later tonight when I've recovered. Nik Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silvia Bluejay Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 Thank you Nik and Loraine for organising the bash, and everyone who came along. Predictably, I took about a million photos and wil be working on them asap for my blog, while also comparing notes with Loraine.

Bassman Steve Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 Yes, thanks for all the work done in organising the event. It was a superb afternoon and very informative. Nice, also, to put faces to names and real names to noms de Basschat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JapanAxe Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 A cracking day indeed, met some great folks (some for the second time!), and got a lot from Jake and Jack's talks and chatting to them after.

andyonbass Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 A great way to spend a few hours on a Sunday! Thanks to all involved in the organisation and running of the event. Look forward to the next one..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phil.c60 Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 Thanks Nik for all your hard work organising things, I had a great day - I also thought Jake's and Jack's talks were interesting and informative, and everyone was very friendly. As the token left-winger unfortunately I couldn't take up the many kind offers of "have a go on this", but I did get to try some very nice cabs especially a Barefaced Super 12. I've been trying to justify buying one of these for a while, and I can feel the pull getting stronger........ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r16ktx Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 Many thanks to Nik and the others for giving their time and effort to organise this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
