A reminder that we have 30 tickets for this event and they go on sale this morning. We've hired the on-site cabin for Saturday night for a social. Cost is £8.50 for adults, £5 for kids. Price includes free drink on arrival, fish'n'chips supper, free raffle and the Big Quiz (with prizes).

There is also a free shuttle bus service during the day on Saturday to link with the Nottingham bus, forest visitor centre, and local pub.

Is it OK to come as a day visitor? I'll have my new Bongo by then and it would be great to pop in, say hi and talk bongo :)

A very big thanks to Ian, Marianne and other helpers for their hard work to make this event a big success. =D> Great weekend and good to meet old friends and new bongonauts. Pity it's the last of the year. Already looking forward to next year's bashes.
