Well not long now Folk's till the UK5 meeting on the 14th. Just like to say we have had quite a few bit's, and bob's donated, so we can have a Raffle on the day. I would also like some idea of the number of people who are going to be attending, so i know how many Pie's to order :) So just reply to this Blog and i can get some idea of number's. As i have stated the day is free ie/ no admission fee, but we will have to pay for the food, and there will be a donation box, anything that we raise is going to be donated to the local Hospice Willow Wood which is totally self funding, and is dependent on donation's. See yawl on the 14th :)

	joemac says: 3/8/2015 3:36:26 PM It's my pleasure Eddie, if anyone needs a bit of beginners advice I will gladly give it, I don't mind doing two beginners workshops throughout the day, I'm sure us beginners can find a corner somewhere.
	alanjg1 says: 3/8/2015 3:37:10 PM Eddie I'm glad you rang him at last! I'll probably bring my drum dial, so if anybody wants to check their head tension they're welcome to use it. Is Ian Tofte coming? I remember he helped with set up at the last Hilton meeting.
