DK has let me know he will be too strapped (time and cash) to make it, so I will be coming alone.

the sooner we get things set-up the cheaper the hotel and car deals I can get guys so hurry up

Cost is about the same for me.
£55 for an Event I do not need Accomodation for, or £25 + one nights Accomodation (1/2 the Price of a Twin room). Still not sure I can make either one of them yet though.

The Roze Bowl's original aim was to offer an alternative to the Blood Bowl as it was felt that the Blood Bowl did not offer value for money. Games Workshop, together with the NAF, have also identified this as an issue and have jointly agreed to add reasonable value to the event, commencing this year. This is a welcomed move, but also brings into question the continued validity for running The Roze Bowl. After re-evaluating the situation it has been agreed that there no longer remains the need for this event and therefore it has been decided to withdraw The Roze Bowl from running on May 10/11 2008 with immediate effect. The option to run this later in the year will now be looked at instead.

If this causes any problems for coaches who have already booked flights then please contact gp@enos.ltd.uk immediately to discuss.

The NAF are still in talks on the specifics, we do have the NAF's word that it is worth it though

Post by **voyagers_uk** » Wed Feb 13, 2008 12:07 pm

is this like a government election promise or an internet delivery promise similar to the dice and ID cards from the NAF's past......

My wishful thinking - a full new Slann team

I suppose as my main reason for attending was to meet all the people I have spoken to for years I will end up going to Nottingham (assuming the tickets don't all sell out on day 1)

Even if they do, come on the weekend - I'm sure someone will give you a game or two while you're there, and I think someone ('Dook?) payed on the day last year.
