A bit short notice, but how about a meet at Old Sarum?

English Heritage are doing a knights tour, which looks like it could be very good indeed. It's completely unchoreographied so all the action is real.

Details can be found here.

Oooooooo, that looks interesting
I'll have to think about it since I do have to save cash for the London Film & Comic Con, so perhaps I should miss this

What time will the thing start? It's not very specific.

And what time will people be there? If Rachel's going on Sunday it'd probably be the best day for a meet, as I can make sunday, and it's generally quite a free day for people.

The site says 10am-5pm, so I'm hoping to be there from 9:30am, it depends on when I can get my family to go as I'll be getting there with them.

I'll try and talk Blade into it, so we can make it an official meet. I'll probably get there at 10, if I can find it. I'll just have to walk up Castle Road and keep going until I get speared or somthing tongue

I have important news!!

The event starts at 11:30am and not 10am like I thought it did and the site only opens at 10am!

So, because of this, we need to change the meeting time to 11am. This should give up pleanty of time to meet and find a good spot to watch the events from.

I hope everyone who goes gets this message, I don't want to turn up and find someone's been waiting for an hour and a half. worried

Right, so it seems that only myself and Rachel are going, and it'll be at 11am. Anything else, because I won't be able to get on between now and then.

I would, but he's all weird and depressed again, and he's too busy looking for his direct out lead between his amp and Mbox tongue And I have to stay over my dad's tonight so that I can get there easier, and no internet, so I can't convince him. He's not online now anyway tongue
