Who else is going?
Mrs English Bloke and I are looking forward to it immensely...  An excellent opportunity to meet Derek and Elaine for the first time as well as Hamish who I believe is acting as compare for the event. Apparently there's some good beers on as well as some good music.

Barring any International Apocalyptic and Cataclysmic Disasters, I will be there. Saturday for the Fest and returning home on Sunday.
Regards Chas

Yes, John, I'll be there, and a fantastic line-up of talent has been booked for the occasion. You will just love Derek and Elaine, believe me! Looking forward to meeting you and Mrs. English Bloke - and Chas too. Anyone else?
Take care,
Ham.
