Who is coming to Botcon Europe?

I've been trying to persuade Jetfire to come before he buggers off and realised no one has said much about it for a while. So are most of the UK crew coming? I'm just about to pre-register and wondered if I need to save money for alcohol.

Does that mean we can throw things at you? Heavy, preferably sharp, things?

impy, I'm pretty sure it's on a sundy. If you work on sundays, well...

in your face son!

Sorry.

Anyway, I will be going, I would consider the venue 'local'.

i.e. I live near it.

But it is also in Essex, soooooo

Ah, actually you might be right.

Hmm, I'm thick as ****. It's close to the border though.

*edit*

Let me just point out my honest mistake.

There is a special reserve in Cheshunt and Chelmsford, and I mixd the two places up

Well, it's a fiver, so if it's anything above a Spychanger, I'd be surprised.

Not that that would be a bad thing... Spies rawk.

Can I just have reasons why botcon Europe should be on mainland europe please?

Halfshell · Post by **Halfshell** » Wed Oct 02, 2002 8:55 pm

Bigger target market.

Hold it in, say, Austria, and it's within easy distance of France, Germany, Italy, Switzerland, Belgium and the Netherlands without having to break out the planes.

[note - my geographical knowledge of mainland Europe is cack right now.... brain's half asleep]

Whereas, in the UK, all these people have to go through France, which is traumatic enough. Or fly. Which is expensive.

Nuts to mainland Europe.

If they like tf's so much, they can get their own event together, then once it's proven that there is an audience, maybe botcon Europe will go there.

And I say this already pretty sure that they have their own tf events anyway. bu tthey should have more.
