[hairychris]

I'm a maybe so not adding to official list. Will bring an EBMM USA Sub 5 and a GK MB800 if I do (and anyone's interested!).

[silverfoxnik]

And here's the 'rough itinerary' for the day, which as bluejay pointed out yesterday when we were discussing it, it may be subject to change.. [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]As ever, it's pretty much jam-packed but I'm hoping with everyone being suitably chilled, it'll all work out OK on the day...[/font][/color]

[b][color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Hall & Theatre:[/font][/color][/b]
[color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]We're having a bit of a debate amongst us as to whether to hold the talks in the Theatre or in the Hall at the moment, and that's because of noise levels..[/font][/color]

[color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Normally, everyone sets up their rigs in the Hall but because, the doors don't shut out noise very well, the sounds creeps into the Foyer, making things like talks, conversations etc in there more difficult. So we're thinking of switching it around.. Will get back to you on this with an update in the next few days or so.[/font][/color]

[font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif][color=#282828]Thanks for looking![/color][/font]

Nick, I should be able to provide some lucky-dip bundles of review/promo CDs for the raffle. Will have a look upstairs at what's kicking about. They won't be bass-focused but all of "3* out of 5 review" quality or more.

[gary mac]

I was very much hoping to come along this year but recovery from recent surgery has been a bit slow and my wife is refusing to let me out to play

[TrevorR]

Gary, so sorry to hear that. Surely a pleasant day out amongst like minded folks (albeit sans heavy gear) would be a perfect spirit raiser, release endorphins and promote more rapid healing...?

Worth a try with Mrs Mac...

I might have to be a tentative for this now. My re-re-rescheduled surgery is now scheduled for this coming Monday (I almost got out of it again with the doctors strike though), and I'm not supposed to drive for 2 weeks afterwards. It's going to be a cracking day, and if I'm anywhere close to capable I'll be there.

[silverfoxnik]

Good luck with the surgery Nick and if you can be there, great!

Despite 'all things bass' being super-important, health does have to take precedence...

..occasionally.

[NickD]

Thanks!

I shall of course donate my entry fee and gas costs if I'm unable to attend. It's wonderful that such things exist, and they deserve to be supported.

There are people from that London going. Maybe you could cadge a lift?

[NickD]

It's a thought, but I reckon I would wear out my welcome in anyone's motor. Worst case I expect and unbendable leg... could be tricky in a car full of gear... a roof rack might have potential!

And a gentle reminder that we could really do with some more Raffle Prizes to add to the list..

Thanks

I like your thinking, now if I could just get her to drive me around the M25, all would be good
