There is another event the same weekend which is very close to Bristol that could also be a meet -

JOUST 2006

"29 (Sat) - 30 (Sun) July 2006
Berkeley Castle, Berkeley, Gloucestershire,
Cost: £13 (adult) / £5 (age 4-14)

The UK's largest and most spectacular mediaeval festival! Join the feuding Lord Berkeley and his arch enemy Lord Talbot at the 850 year old Berkeley Castle. Full contact jousting, thundering sieges, concerts from the Mediaeval Baebes, booming cannon displays, real ales, pig roasts, wandering minstrels, noble knights and flirting maidens all combine in this festival of mediaeval mayhem."

Cool stuff cool , that is two of us and a newish member of FFUK North who is coming too I believe happy
Midlands have shown interest and I think are organising themselves, I will talk to FFUK Wales and see if we can get them mobilised too.

Meeting of the clans maybe? happy

Anyone else from the South feel like a trip out?

Cool grin

Well, I think I may have to really start booking this, one of the Dark Horse Comic writers is attending, I can't not let him go to a UK con and not be met by a DHC poster.

Pencil me in for the Star Wars fantasy event boss dude.

Sounds like a laugh, is close to where I live and will be a great opportunity to meet other posters.

Welcome aboard Welshguy, I best make sure I can make it now lol. I am like 99% certain, but there is always the chance I get a job again that messes me up. But Friday night-Sunday should be ok still.

Strangly enough, whereas I thought I would be on holiday in cornwall, I'm actually going to be stopping off in Bath for a few days on the way back then shock

I'll see what I can do, but I think what we're doing has been pre-planned sad

But we'll see happy

Just bumping this up to see what interest there is with people going. I might be able to attend this, possibly.

odj_310388!!!! Excellent! Well, aside for Welshguy and myself, I am not sure how many in the South can attend, but we have some from London, the North and I believe the Midlands is coming enmasse. So we will have quite a few people there, it'd be great to meet you cool Two welsh members! Excellent grin
