The UK Convention From: Carol Mulholland <Carol@flagship-uk.demon.co.uk> Date: Sun, 26 Nov 2000 00:00:00 +0000 We regret to announce that we shall be unable to organise the annual UK PBM convention as usual next year, because of Ken's ill-health. We'll be prepared to discuss arrangements with anyone reliable who's interested in taking over. We'd recommend using the same venue as last year. It seems unfair to expect GMs to run this - they need to spend their time on their games - so it's worth reminding everyone that the first conventions were organized by a committee of players. The main thing to face is that the hall and bar need to be paid for in advance. But you can offset advanced player bookings and GM stall payments against this. We think that it's important to run an annual event where PBMers can get together - last year's was good fun. Ken and Carol Up
