I am booked on a train on Thursday so there is a risk that Wednesday's strike might have a knock on effect. Just waiting to discover if I will be affected, but I have a contingency plan to drive.

I'm sorted. Drive up to Hathersage on Thursday, then across to the nearby Qpark on Saturday :)

Will there be mugs on sale this year? So far, I've always missed out - either by being too late and they've sold out, or forgetting till after everyone has started packing up :(

Yes, that was extremely good.

I will be the one holding a copy of the Music Tech magazine, holding an umbrella and wearing a pink carnation.

And the SOS staff will be carrying copies of Sound On Sound magazine, as they escort you out of the door with your Music Tech magazine ;)

Obviously Martin's joking, the only thing that gets you ejected on the spot is a copy of the Russ Andrews catalogue! ;)

I'll be there, stand L-17 in the Modular Meet section with my own pile of circuits. Come and say hi, I've met very few of you in real life!

It's been fabulous to meet up with everyone again - and that's just the set-up day!

A few famous faces as well...

It's going to be a good one, and my credit card is already eyeing me nervously.

Cracking event again. Completely knackered now though.
I did manage to restrict myself to just buying a t-shirt but I was very, very nearly tempted.
