hey all,

due to circumstances beyond our control we have only recently got anywhere with the venue, unfortunetly the preposed weekend of the 4th/5th of september is not availible, we have however received some alternate dates they are:

18th september
19th september
16th october
17th october

how does the forum feel about those dates? i understand if the september dates are too short notice, but the october dates may be a bit close to other events...is there any date you would prefer? thought i should run it by you before i make a definate booking!

thanks

Jack

I'm fine with all of them, although I'd prefer a September date if possible. Shame about the venue though, by the sounds of it you've had a bit of a nightmare with them :(

EDIT: Just found out that the October dates clash with Robots Live! in Kidderminster - which I was hoping to go to - so now I think I can only make the September dates, sorry.

I would prefer September.

a) I'm busy the weekend of 16/17 October
b) There's a Robots Live event that w/e as Joey says
c) It would make 3 antweight events in October - maybe a step too far!

Sorry If I am missing something but what would the venue be?

Or would that be decided once the date is?
