Anyone got any pics up yet? As I was sitting here yesterday, I thought what a good idea it would be to have a webcam covering the event. Is anyone prepared to take up this challenge and facilitate the first UK fest to be broadcast on the internet?! (23 years ago, 4-Mar-01, to lugnet.loc.uk)

(...) I'll fifth it (or a higher number by now) First proper 'Fest' I've been to and predictably overspent at. Thanks Tony. Only downer was seeing Jennifer's M.A.N. skip truck in full remote working order, not good for one's personal esteem! (we're (...) (23 years ago, 4-Mar-01, to lugnet.loc.uk)
