Hi everyone

The Edinboro Castle Blood Bowl League's Pearly Kings and Queens of 2008 is coming!

DATE: 19-20 April.


VENUE: The Escape Bar, right in Camden Town.
http://maps.yell.com/client/yell/?&nat_ ... LINDEX2%3D

We got a dedicated function room in a bar where we can stay in the evenings. We also have our own terrace to enjoy if it's sunny outside.

The venue is just 5mn walk from Euston train station, or 15mn by bus or tube from King's Cross - Saint Pancras (if you come direct from Hogwarts).

We have space for 45-50 people.


TICKET PRICE: £29 if you pay by the 21st March, £34 if you pay after that date.
Lunch is not included, but we'll provide nibbles + there are plenty of inexpensive places to get food from in the area (and you can bring your own food).
To get a ticket, send me a PM with your NAF number and name and pay me:
- by PayPal
Go to http://www.paypal.com and pay into the account lejjb@hotmail.com
please note the new PayPal account.

- or send a cheque to:
Justin Bukspan
26 Abbotswood Road
London SE22 8DL
United Kingdom


SOCIAL: The PK&Q wouldn't be the same without the Friday night drinks for the early arrivals and the Saturday evening curry/burger/whatever-strikes-our-fancy.

Friday night: still meeting at the venue as planned. Look for me (I'll be wearing a black shirt! - with ECBBL ) inside.

Saturday night: dinner with the best burgers in town, Haché.

Then clubbing for the brave.

RULES: same as last year. The rules and tournament pack can be downloaded from:

ACCOMMODATION -

I recommend the StChristopher's Inn in Camden Town
http://www.st-christophers.co.uk/london ... don/camden
It's the most popular hostel in the area, and fairly professionally managed.

Alternatively, you can look at:
The Camden Town Hostel (it's also very near, but I don't know about the quality of its management)
http://studios92.com/accommodation/CA55.htm

The YHA London StPancras
It's only 15mn away from the venue, very central and decently managed.
http://www.yha.org.uk/find-accommodatio ... index.aspx

and finally the Generator Hostel.
It's also well-known, acceptably managed, but a little further away - about 20 mn. Also in a very central and safe location.

Guys, could you also mention which of the two above dates you prefer?

Thanks,

Well as Monkeybowl is the 5th/6th I would vote against that date, I would probably prefer the last date as that gives me two weeks between the tornis

I will almost certainly be there (and this time staying out past 9pm on the Saturday :roll: :P ) and would prefer the 12/13th if given the choice as otherwise the 19/20th is four days before I get paid so I will be poncing beers like a good'un... :wink:
