Ok folks, just a little update. As things stand, i have booked some tables at the Wargrave Arms for the 19th of November. I am currently trying to get in contact with someone from Kings head chess club to find out about borrowing some sets/clocks for the afternoon. Once i have done this i'm going to send out the full details of whats happening/when where, etc... Hopefully Russ will do a site announcement.

Here is a list of people who have shown an interest. If you are on this list can you please post and let me know if you intend to come on the 19th of November so i can find out how many tables to book. Many thanks 🙂

Yep I'll try and come up from Brighton.

I've met Edwardipov and Murrow before and they seemed vaguely normal.

I will (probably 😛) have met shavixmir by then, so I'll know at least one person 😛
Wonder if he talks about bowmannoids in public too, though...

Well, what i have in mind is to meet at around 2/3pm for a few hours of chess, say till 6 pm. Then we drink the bar dry till closing. I haven't arranged the tables yet as i don't have numbers, but this is what i'm thinking... 😀

I will be circulating an itinerary in the next day or so, so that people can make arrangements. I need a reasonable idea of how many people intend to come first though, as i don't want to book for 1000 people if only 10 intend to come. Chicken and the egg if you get my drift...

I'll be there.

And believe me Angie, what I write is nothing compared to what I talk about 😉

EDIT:

Could you please PM me when the date is 100% certain, because I can get a return flight for less than 70 euros!! 🙂

Yes, i'll do that in the next two days hopefully. I want to get this arranged while it is still fresh in peoples minds. If people are going to travel from abroad, i want it to be a good day with as many pawn stars as possible!!! 🙂

I'll try my best, pending my financial situation. All depends how the busking goes during the crap weather. Should be okay though.
