Keep it coming guys! :)

(Or should I say...BUMP!)

I was saddened not to make the 2024 edition as the move to September doesn't work very well for me in general and even October is only 50/50 if it falls on a day where I might be able to 'come out to play'.

As things stand I don't think I can do any September Saturday, alas.

I've spoken to Retro Lemon, Jakub (owner) is interested in joining us, possibly with his goodies too :) Those of us who were there at Northampton in 2023 will remember him from then.

Am glad to see the progress on this, let's keep it going !

I'll also share the word around too.

Cheers

Rich.

Aww...shoot!

What about if we send an unmarked van over to your house with some masked goons to put a bag over your head and abduct you? :lol:

Yeah we can get them to call in after they've abducted exxos.

Do we need to syphon some of the hall costs to pay for 'abduction services' do you think?

I think so but if we can get them to do like a round robin, then it should be cheaper ;)

Seriously though @Badwolf if things can be changed, or just for future reference, when is a good period for you?

Perhaps people can chip in with:

1. If the suggested date (Sat 6th Sept) is ok for them and...
2. What other dates would be good for them.

Im not sure we ever will be able to do a 'one size fits all' with the dates, but if we can catch the most fish, that would be the best plan.

Hence why I based this date on the CL2024 poll results.

I mean, we can do another poll I guess, but I think we have to crack on with this to avoid it dragging on like last year.

Any suggestions welcome. :)
