Guys ive just spoken to Roger H and he tells me BCUK will have a stand at this years WG :biggthump whats the score on it? any details on what will be going on yet :?: great idea as its the biggest and the only gathering of its type in the UK and if its anything like the last 2 years it will be one Not to miss and will be good promotion for the site and get more victims er i mean members in :-P :biggthump
 
Agree totally, I missed lat years so fully intend to make this 1.

Maybe we could all agree to meet at the stand at a certain time???

And I am sure you would have plenty of "willing" helpers.
 
I had only just arrived on the forum at the time of the last one and didn't want to be the proverbial mormon at a proverbial house of ill repute.

I'm definately going to this years though :-)
 
That great news.

I'll be there too. I missed last years due to a prior arrangment but this years has been marked in my diary in permanent ink since mid Jan.

Even if I have to swim I'll be there.

I've been to both previous WGs, though the first one I was only a day visitor.

It's getting bigger all the time and I hope we can make it again this year. It was a great event last year, and of course it's right on my doorstep! :-)

How exactly does it work. If you have a weekend ticket you can go in but need to pay extra for the courses but a weekend ticket includes that?

Here is the site. I'm thinking about it at the mo'. :wink:

Reading the webpage it looks like:
A Weekend ticket includes any of the courses you want to do.
A Day Ticket gets you onto the site but you pay £10 per course.

That's how it usually works but in previous years (dunno about this year) courses are a first come, first served basis and a weekend ticket in no way guarantees you access to a course - you'll have to queue and take a chance.

That's right - and you have to queue early to avoid disappointment. To be fair, last year there were extra courses laid on.

I think that having only two programme streams is not enough. For an event of this size, you need three or four, otherwise at £65 a pop for the weekend people won't get their money's worth.
 
just spoke to Roger reference this issue and he assures me that this year they are encouraging the instructors to take larger groups, and there will be more classes plus pre bookable indepth classes booked when bying tickets. :biggthump
