I'll be there from Tuesday evening. Sadly I couldn't get the time off work for the whole event.

Yup! although we didn’t realise there was stuff happening in the evening on the Friday when we booked accommodation and cat sitting - so we’ll be leaving before the end :(

Looking forward to finally meeting you after all these years, and hopefully finding out what ball spinning is like with your cheating-saggy-balloon-things-that-aren’t-really-balls :P

Rumour has it that a) He's forgotten his Edge password, b) He'll be at Catch, and c) so will RM's clubs.

Im going!

Glad to see so many golf club balancers are going... :D

Regarding Friday evening: there is entertainment, a circus film will be shown, there will be food too. Also during the day food stalls and local vendors will be out in force. It will be in Appleby itself instead of up on the convention site, I didnt really organise it, I just suggested they do something, told them what film, and why and how, and then they are running it, which is why at first i never said anything was happening on the friday incase it didnt come off.

Anyway, looking forward to seeing you all there!

I'll be there.
I won't be bringing golf clubs but will bring wiff waff bats in the hope that there will be a table to play on...

We'll be there - and me and Jamie Fletcher are planning to make some crazy props (we're bringing some tools and materials and ideas, most of which involve balancing stuff on faces). We're hoping you'll be interested David, and that LP and Charlie Holland and others are too...

I'll be there late on Monday, but of course goff is a game reserved for the feeble of mind and other simpletons so I'm not going to bring any goff bats with me. I've tried LP's though, and they're bastard difficult! What's the bloody point of that then, eh?

Not gonna lie, I'm really looking forward to it, so it had damn well better be good! As usual I will bring a large bag'o'juggling-shite which I will not bother using, plus a guitar and much booze which definitely will get used.
