There's the plan for the day!


Kris,

I am, but I don't yet know if I'll have room. Depends upon whether or not Leigh's coming. Leigh ???

If he's not, then no worries.

Michael/Teo,

List fixed; thanx.

Lunch will be something light Feathers anyone?

Probably sandwiches or similar.


Tripods ... up to you; not really needed, but I want to cover what y'all think you want to learn ... so that's a ball that's in your courts.

No.

Or yes.

We're a part of the AW too, don't forget. :)

But see my earlier comments referring to Peter's Pikers. :)

The reality is that, were Peter's Ferry Trip Tribe to meet with us, it would only be for a ferry short time, due to their travel constraints, so Peter decided their time would be better spent elsewhere, and that is fair enough.

As to local eateries .... no ... that would take 90 minutes (minimum) out of the day, and many of us will be eating at the AW dinner a few hours later, so it's just light snacks for lunchipoos. :)

Michael,

Yes: the $15 is for the room.

What Geoff's asking for is voluntary, and for Benedicta's time.

Yep, $5-$10 extra (from each of us) for Benedicta, not including the room hire. I've just sent another email around stating this. Come on guys, she's giving up virtually her entire day for us :).

Hi Tiberius, and welcome.

Please take note of the FAQ, and put a meaningful location into your profile; it's a requirement of membership.

As to the workshop, we'd love to have seen you there ...

a year ago!

Please check the dates on the posts; this is an older thread. :)
