Made me titter!
Here, I thought you only had monitors at school? Marshals would be more appropriate surely ... especially as you're a bit of a cowboy!!!

The Drinkalot Tavern you mean? Severn Cider will be running it again, they promised they'd improve the lager this year - not their past speciality it has to be said. I am also sorting out the bands this year, that way we can have a REAL party!
That's point. I need live music for two nights - Friday (a duo would be fine), and a 3 or 4 piece Saturday night. They have to be able to do covers, their own songs would go down like a lead balloon. Ideally they need to be fairly local too, as fuel costs would obviously affect their fee.
Anybody recommend a decent band?

Okay, here's some news that will please forum members - why not get a few together and pop over to Germany in October?
Over a 2 week period you could attend Adventure Overland Show, Stratford-upon-Avon Racecourse (26-27 Sept 2015) as part of a "Difflock" Display Stand (I've always said the forum is welcome to have a free stand at the show, this could be the year to do it if enough members are up for it - totally up to you!)
... then explore the delights of Northern France, Belgium, Holland or Germany for 3 or 4 days
... then attend Adventure Northside, Vethem 58, near Walsrode, Northwest Germany (2-4 Oct 2015) with another "Difflock" display - this would be free entry for all members who previously attended Stratford Racecourse!
In a nutshell, you only pay for one show! The following Press Release explains:-
PRESS RELEASE
BOGOF to overland shows in England and Germany!
Featuring 4x4 campervans, adventure bikes, expedition trucks and bushcraft/survival, Western Europe will play host to two major overland exhibitions in 2015 ... "Adventure Overland Show" at Stratford-upon-Avon Racecourse, England (26-27 September 2015) and its sister event "Adventure Northside", Vethem 58, near Walsrode, Northwest Germany (2-4 October 2015).
Held late summer over consecutive weekends, visitors booking into either event will automatically receive free entry to the second event. This BOGOF (Buy One Get One Free) offer includes admission and camping, thus making attendance of both events over a two week period a lot kinder on the pocket!
The same scheme applies to traders from Central Europe, Scandinavia and Eastern Europe who likewise can attend both shows for the price of one. This together with language translators to assist wherever necessary will enable companies to explore new markets.
See websites for full details: www.adventureoverlandshow.com and www.adventure-northside.com/?lang=en

Maybe a better itinerary is Adventure Overland, dash down to Munich for Oktoberfest, Adventure Northside...
Though it might just be Adventure Overland, Oktoberfest...

The event has a new website ... wey hey!!!
I've only just launched it, so before you say anything - NO, no mention of TC as yet. Me being a total technophobe, I'm still trying to get my head around all this new software. Loads more to add to it, but getting there!
Same address as the old one - www.adventureoverlandshow.com
I'll be at Billing with my local group - Bedworth Berts 4x4 Club - who have a pitch there, so by all means pop around for a cold one or a cuppa!

I'm sure a lot of you reading this are aware that straight after the Adventure Overland Show at Stratford-upon-Avon 26-27 Sept 2015, we're off in convoy to the second overland event - Adventure Northside in Vethem 58, Germany 2-4 Oct 2015.
Well one of our merry band can't travel due to an unexpected hernia operation, thus a spare seat has become available in a LR130. I estimate it'll cost the co-driver approx. £80 to £100 max. in fuel/ferry. Back on Wednesday 7th October.
Any takers?

Nearly forgot ...with so much going on, I'd suggest the best way of reading about the show is via the "Show résumé" - http://www.adventureoverlandshow.net/showresume ... otherwise you could be there for ages!
The SEMINARS page is especially interesting, but then again I may just be a bit biased!!!
