I'm pleased that some of you have said your going but that isn't exactly what I had asked.


We need to advertise a bit and try and get more to go, if we fail that's it no more.

Can we get new roll out banners?
Tag them into sigs on other sites.

Unfortunately I can't attend. Quite pissed but nothing I can do.

A good and free way to advertise; If anyone works in an office they could print-off some copies of the flyer, discretely of course. Then take them to their local Forbidden Planet or comic shop and ask to leave them on the counter.

Eddie, have you got a PDF of the flyer, A4 would be easier to print at work discretely.

My flights are booked. I wasn't going to make the trip this year but the prospect of another romantic weekend with Eddie is too much to resist!
