Owston meet, 21 & 22nd Oct '23
#91 Re: Owston meet, 21 & 22nd Oct '23
I eventually got through to darios last night, arranged the buffet numbers, and Andrews gluten free. The manager was supposed to ring me today to confirm the costs, but as yet not rang me, but i can't see it being more than £20 a head room / tea/coffees and buffet
I'm told someone will be there to open up at 9.00am Saturday morning.. let's see !
I'm not sure about the sunday, so far there's only 3 of us , I'm happy to come back on the Sunday, but was planning to discuss it on Saturday with the others.. if there's more interest let me know.
Im looking forwards to it, but I've a busy lead up, as I'm at the NEC tomorrow and a wedding on Friday afternoon
I'm sure those wanting a meal on Saturday evening will be able to, previously when they are full they've set a table up in the main room, but I doubt it will come to that !

As always, thanks for all your work on this Steve and I hope the next couple of days aren't too stressful for you.
I'm looking forward to hooking up with people again.

Pity about the hotel room costs so its Saturday for me, I will stop for the evening meal as well.

I forgot about that, of course, shouldn't be any problems then.previously when they are full they've set a table up in the main room, but I doubt it will come to that !

Thanks Steve for all your work organising once again. I'm sure I'm not alone in saying that you've held this event together over the years, through difficult times and challenges. It's morphed from what it was back at Eggborough and that's also a reflection of the way people have learned and moved to new challenges and got the sounds and systems that suit them.
There's always more to learn and more fun to be had trying to improve the audio kit but for me it's a lot about the friendships and fun times and sharing the knowledge.

Now, that is something I do remember.

I am very vague about that evening...

You didn’t need a boat then? That bodes well for my trip in the morning.

Car felt like a sailing boat coming over the M62. It's damp here for sure. The lane has a lot of puddles.vinylnvalves wrote: ↑Fri Oct 20, 2023 6:15 pm You didn’t need a boat then? That bodes well for my trip in the morning.
