Make sure to post lots of pictures from the event. I'm also not located in the UK, so I will have to live vicariously through your pictures. This is definitely something I'd go to, though.
Im busy working, and down the bottom of UK, so would take ages to get there and back that it'd be pretty pointless me going. Shame really.
I'm considering it. But it will just be over priced, judging by people going. I'd be up for going if some ASSEMbler folk are going and want to meet up though.
You'd be surprised! We've worked hard to get a good mix of sellers, and there's quite a few coming that aren't traders who are looking to clear out lofts, collections, and spares. Besides I'm up for meeting more of the Assembler crew! I'm very much a lurker, but still
It's been a long time Adam, hope it goes well for you! Was thinking about when we used to bump into each other at the airport carboot sale the other day! How's that Amstrad mega PC I gave you?
