Trashfest UK 3rd Sept

Well, us European types got a bit jealous of all the excitement going on over Trashfest South so we decided to get in on the act ourselves. To that end, Jazzbeaux & myself are attempting to organise the first ever European trashfest on 3rd September in the teeming metropolis of Trowbridge, Wiltshire.

Seriously we don't know how many people might be interested in this, so we're starting small. Jazzbeaux's FLGS has table space for hire, so we've hired some for the entire day 10am-6pm to try and get some gaming in. They have drinks & snacks on sale at the shop and we've got the green light to bring our own beer

For anyone wanting to come from a distance there's a cheap travel lodge nearby or there are probably some decent hotels in the town itself. Or you can take the Friday off, visit & stay in the lovely city of Bath, and travel in with me in the morning

We need some idea of numbers so we can make sure we've got enough space reserved, and can start to think about what game(s) to play. So if you think you might be able to make it please post here.

Looking forward to seeing y'all.

Looks like Matt has covered all the bases there, so now we just need players!
This is the opportunity to crack out those long games, with a full eight hours to play.

See you in September.

Yeah Baby. Now that is what I'm talking about. Way to step up and get something going. Good luck rounding up those BritTrashers.

For those of us that have never visited Great Britan, you need to talk it up:
Tell us how the streets are paved with out of print games and beer falls from the skies. England is steeped in the Fat:tie lore. Everyone gets their own copy of excaliber and the Fay folk leave golden dice under your pillow.

I took these one lunchtime during the winter.







You need any more reasons?

Very pretty...Do we get the replica of excaliber and fairy gold dice too?

Yes, but you have to pay for them in the Abbey gift shop.

Wow. I'm overwhelmed by the rush of enthusiasm.

It's good to know our European user base is so keen and active.

Your photos of cultural heritage scared them away. I *told* you to promise beer falling from the sky instead...

Just back from the UK, and I will be back in September, but two weeks too late for Trashfest.

But if anyone of you likes to join in for the Washington Conference game , I'll be glad to meet up.

Hopefully bouncing this up the list as a reminder that it is only a month away!

Am gathering players and games, with beer to be bought.

So will we see you there?
