'The Outdoors Show' Meet 2010

[decorum]

Two names added. As maddave is (provisionally) down for Thursday night only I'm choosing not to see him in the numbers - so that leaves three spaces. I'll PM those who stated that they'd confirm closer to the date in a few days. This may, or may not, open spaces.

We've been discussing, off thread, about a canopied area - from what I understand, the canopy is 20' in diameter.

This area will be set aside to those who are doing craft 'stuff' and also to trading (there is no compunction to trade under the canopy).

Unless we decide to set times that area can soley be used for trading there will be a segregating barrier.

As the canopied area will be a working area it would be wise to not pitch too close if you prefer (or need) to 'sleep in' .

It shouldn't need saying, but ...

If you are using something which, by design, should be sharp, pointy, pokey or bludgeony, be aware of your surroundings and others in it - before you need to.

If you are in an area where one or more persons are using things which, by design, should be sharp, pointy, pokey or bludgeony, be aware that you are the softer item and need to take avoiding action - before you need to.

Just had an invite to a birthday party of a good friend I don't see enough of, so with much disapointment I must cross myself off the attendee list. I may try to pop down on the Thursday night and leave early Sat morning but only if I have no work on.

If you could amend the list please Phil I dont want to copy and paste it incase you miss it (I don't think you would miss it though)
I hope to get to the meet even if for a short while.
