After months of inactivity, I have provisionally booked the next event for Sunday the 2 of November. So if you are reading this then it means
I have got the major parts of this site up and running again :P and you can book your place HERE. As always I will need a
minimum of 12 people to book and pay their deposit before I will confirm the event. Cost will be the same as always £15.00 if you pay at
NEP or by one of the online methods, but people turning up on the day unannounced will be charged £20 and people who book but pay at the event will
be charged £17.00 . So why dont save some money and pre-pay!!. By doing so we can confirm the event all the quicker. |

Final week now and things are going well and we have just upgraded to a larger Function suit, the only minor point is its on the second floor but
there is lift access and there are a few trollys you can bag for getting your gear upstairs. Numbers are up to 24 now which is great. Where did you
guys hear about us?^Deadulas^ has given me the last of my Linux downloads so I better get back the other computers and get them sorted for Sunday.

22 people have now booked which is great. This actually puts us over the limit of for the Albyn Suite. So I have been in talks with the Thistle
Hotel and they are quite prepared to upgrade us to a bigger room (for a price of course
). I have not seen this room
myself by ^Daedulas^ has and he assures me that the room is much bigger, has more power sockets and has windows so we will have adequate ventilation.
The room is on the fist floor but there is lift access. All in all it is a much better venue. Before I can book this room more people will have to
pay their deposits. SO I am asking everyone who has not yet paid at NEP please do so by Sunday at the latest. NoCHex users will be getting a request
within in the next day or two.The forum is still down but it appears to be a server crash that is causing all the problems. As soon as I hear more
I will let you all know.

Lots of news at the moment. First we now have 20 confirmed bookings, I will be going to NEP tomorrow morning and will
Hopefully pick up a lot of your payments/ deposits.Second it turns out that the reason the original forum crashed
was because someone has been php bombing Lycos web servers. Ok I thought I will move the forum over to my new site
and use the mySQL database there. Everything was going well until ^Daedalus^ and I were checking the reason why the
forum had gone down on Thursday. What we found was the forum was down temporarily but the new site had in fact been
hacked by anti war protestors. But before I could change my passwords it appears they have infact deleted the whole
site. I have been in contact with my web host and I am trying to get control placed back to me and with any luck
back ups of the forum. So hang tight and I will have everything running a quickly as possible.

Bookings now stand at 17 and I have confirmed the venue with the hotel. I will be going to NEP on Thursday /
Friday to collect payments. I will then ammend the Who's coming page. If you intend to
to come to the event, but have yet to contact us please do so as we do have a maximum amount of people we can
allow to the venue, power being one of the main reasons (and the hotel an other
)

Bookings are now up at 14 people and there are still quite a few regulars trying to get Sunday off, so it looks like
we might well get a full house. I would like to say hello to all the new people who have joined the forum its great
to see so many new faces (well we'll see them at the next event!!). So if you havent booked your place hurry up and do so
the more people we can get the better. |

Bookings are starting to come in now, which is great. If you are paying at NEP I am starting
a new system where all your details are put down on an evelope and your cash placed inside. This hopefully should
make things a bit more understandable. As you see the web site is undergoing a facelift. Please be patent while
I make the changes. I'm afaid it will be a slow procces.
