I am one of (hopefully) many :)

Not much. Just enough to have a table for my laptop & opened up Amiga. I could bring a
few issues of 80 Microcomputing aswell, which would be the ones I have duplicates of. The
duplicates aren't in particularly good condition so it doesn't matter too much if
they were to get accidentally damaged :)
All the other issues of 80 Microcomputing I have are pretty much in mint condition and I
wouldn't risk bringing to the event (is that bad? Would anyone else feel the same
way?).
I guess we would need to double that up to
allow for aisles etc. Then
we'll know the size of venues to look for. By
the way, I was really
thrown by the mention of the planet Venus, it
took me a while to work
out it was a typo for venues :-)
Then there's the question of vehicle parking.
How many and are we
talking only cars and small vans or big vans
and articulated lorries?
I'd just bring my car.
Roger,
who is planning a 1300 sq ft extension to his
computer room, and who
lives on a farm in Kent. Probably too small and > not central enough,
but who knows.
