Greeting All!

Only a week to go and I thought I'd post a update to bring you all up to speed.

Remember parking is CRAP! ... please check ahead for any parking issues or needs. There is fuck all parking at the pub as their carpark is normally full of vans.

Upon arrival, please Sign in, we have a huge RV poster for all to scribble on :-) + please help yourself to a little freebie pack ;-)

If you have booked food for the weekend please see me for food tokens. Just present them at the bar to get food. There is no set time for food this year. Please see below for start time, then just make sure you grab something in those times.

As for 'Whats On' ... here is the final list (subject to panic and alteration at any point) -

Thursday - Setup - YakYakers welcome to come along.
Friday - 12 Noon - 1am - PsychoRobs Game Zone, Exotica from noon + WorldOwonder and Starship Zone from 5pm. Raffle called at 9pm.
Saturday - 12 Noon - 1am - AS FRIDAY + Kenz Binary Zone. CURRY FROM 6pm - 7.30pm. Raffle called at 9pm + DJ Skitz bringing a massive c64 and Amiga remix session.
Sunday - 12 Noon - 6pm - BINARY ZONE DAY + PsychoRobs zone in full! + LlamaTronics Circuit Benders. ROAST FROM 12 MIDDAY - 2pm!! Binary Lucky Draw called at 3pm AND those staying Sunday night and have booked in for the curry we will be leaving the pub at 7.20pm - 5 minute walk to the curry house. Then back to the pub for a couple a pints after.

Finally, please do drink lots! Our record for drinks total is £2,650! Lets do our best to beat that this year .... ;-)

Any problems please PM me NOW! and I'll see what I can do. Please DO NOT PM me after Wednesday - as I'm going to be a tad busy ;-)

What is a "Binary lucky draw"?

"OK, the next number is... ONE... ONE... who has a ticket with ONE on it?"
"And the next number is... ZERO... ZERO anyone?"

I'll come down Thursday evening after work :)

I can bring along my X-Arcade Stick (only got PC adaptor though), and my new 360 Hori stick if they'll be of any use?

Are there going to be many people around on Thursday? Travelling down by train during the day, might be fun to have a pre-event meet-up...
