Pack your moot kit NOW! Move it separately and keep it all together. You'll not be giving a talk to people you don't know. You know them all from here. They are just a bunch of friends you'll be meeting face to face for the first time. When I do demos and talks, I just treat it as if I'm talking to a bunch of mates. Works for me.

Cheers for the advice, I will try it.

I started packing Sunday! Repairing kit and assembling Medic pouch back as a full first aid kit (not that I'm accident prone, ahem).

Good sound advice and it works for me as well. :)

The other thing to remember is that everyone there wants to be there to learn which is a great help as well.

And will be hanging on your every word waiting to pounce on the smallest slip up you make. :lmao: But that's a good thing... right?

I'm sure you'll be fine though, justlike Eric said you know us already, just not to look us in the eye. Sadly I won't tbe there this year and I so wish I could. Maybe next year. Have fun chaps and chapeses.

Biker how comes not? Are you worried about meeting up with John?

I've not started and won't until a few days before! As it's my friend ben, steve and my two ex scouts coming with me in my tiny Prius I'm having to buy a roofbox. Cheaper than hiring another car though...

Mostly that reasoning. I've seen some pictures of him and I have my reservations. See what I mean this is him at last years looking for Tesco's

Actually it's a combination of being double booked and a slight cash flow problem and the logisitics of getting there. Think I might book a ticket next year to Portsmouth early and just worry about the details later once August 2012 rolls around.
