I agree with Scott, we don't want to get carried away with the fests, the
longer the gap the more interesting stuff we can bring for trades/ sells and
the auctions. Jon you have to stop say Pound on every bid? :->
At the moment these are the planned fests
Cheshire minifest By Tony P (Can't find a date)
20 May 2000 Southport Merseyside by Michael Pratt
Berkshire/ Thames Valley Fest - May become a Eurofest late August by
Lawrence Wilkes
Essex Fest by Jason Briscoe, no date set
Would it be best to have 4 fests a year or 3
3 Fest dated:
April
Aug
Dec
4 Fests?
Feb
May
Sept
Dec
Any comments?
