Night before get together sounds awesome for those with day / night passes. The Haseley pub does a great dinner and has good beer / Scotch. My lounge is only so big, but chat to Krikey, he and his missus stayed at a place up the road that I believe was quite reasonable. I don't think it's wise to book far in advance in case the weather is crap. Good to see this thread and meet coming alive!

So, yeah to all who offered, all that is missing are some heaters - maybe three electric and a table top projector - white wall should be fine to project to. I'll do some tests of the 3g with phone on a mast so we can explore the option of going live on justin.tv or Youtube livestream. I may make friends with the adjacent house and ask if they'll let me run a cat5 for network for same.

No way you can get off for Saturday? Everyone has sick aunties you know :) We've made it a Saturday so if the weather goes bad there's always the option for the Sunday. If we set it Sunday, then we halve our chances of a fly good day.

Gonna see if I can get one of the guys to swop shifts with me. Had too many little sickies recently to take a fake one. One strained back and two lots of Ghandis revenge!
Going to do my best though.
Wanna be there.

Holy  Moly it was friggin cold this morn at Heathrow, it's only gonna get colder before this fpv meet.  Themals and tea cosy hats all round I reckon.  Does anyone use those 'tit mitt'  covers where you put your tx in a case to protect your pinkies? ;D

Hi Everyone!

I have added a poll to the top of this page for you to confirm your attendance. Please to be sure to answer it.

In the next week or two we can then discuss specifics, who brings what etc etc.

I'm hoping for a frosty, sunny day. It's like that here today and the fields and scenery look spectacular!
