Would be well funny if there was a thunder storm with mega winds whilst this was on, Id love to see the video of that. Imagine all the nerds diving over their PCs to save them from the rain, comedy!

The marquee is pretty sturdy and the weather around early September is still very nice.

Hello again, We have been busy working on the LAN getting sponsors and listening to peoples requests. We have introduced clan and group pricing and the option to buy single day tickets. Prices below Clan/group prices 5 or more = £35 weekend ticket 8 or more = £30 weekend ticket (To book a clan/group ticket please email me) Day tickets are £15 for each day (Hog roast not included with day ticket) Weekend ticket £40  Projector Games (www.projectorgames.co.uk) will be making an appearance at the LAN. If you haven't heard of them, they have a unique set of specially written games for a projector. This means that you can all play on the same screen at the same time. It's crazy stuff. One game we are definitely playing is Bomberman. These guys hold the record for the biggest game, 35+ people in one game at the same time! We will be looking to beat that. They also have a load of other great games too. Check them and their site out. If you have any more suggestions please let us know Andrew (duckandcover) sales@planbgaming.co.uk PlanB Gaming Ltd 0118 9662190 07736 298961
