Morning all
Just a very quick message to gauge interest, but I’ve been talking to Michael about organising a workshop in Sussex...most likely in Worthing as I can get about and talk to venues, pubs, cafes etc, about renting / using space, but open to other ideas and locations for sure. Michael, Manish and Malc organised one on Hayling Island in 2016, which was an excellent day - gaining priceless advice, meeting likeminded folk from the forum, and immersing yourself in slide guitar for a few hours! Great fun :-) I would love to organise a similar event probably no sooner that July, and no later than maybe early October (as Pocklington is not far off at that point), or Feb ‘18 onwards. A summer event would be great for sure and I’ve already talked to a couple possible venues...will try and arrange a gig in the evening too if feasible.
Anyway, this has become less quick than I’d planned! If you’re interested please add a comment to this thread and then I can see about venues and possible dates.
For folk who struggle to travel up North for Pocklington weekend this could be a good alternative :-)
Cheers
Lew

There is also a Worcester workshop in August being discussed with TT (Deuce), which we are hoping to confirm for the 19th.

Ooh could two workshops be doable, Michael? I wouldn’t mind driving up to the Worcester one too! Car share anyone?

Excellent! If it goes ahead, I'll announce tickets here first, and give anyone interested a chance to book in. Several members from the forum were at the last one (Ian McW, Myk, Ajay and Richard Staines) - would be great to meet some more of yous. Venue is just off j6 of the m5 btw, start at about 12:30. TT

Great. Hopefully we can get a car share situation going from down south. I’m up for it, be great to meet some of you lot. With the southern workshop let’s see how many folk are up for it. It might work better to do one in early 2018 to spread Michael’s load, but of course if there’s enough interest and Michael is happy to come this way then I’d be happy to organise it :-) Thanks for sorting the Worcester one out Deuce!!
Cheers

I was on the beach all day yesterday, so apologies for my late response, and thank you for all your positive comments.
I think that we should condense this plan down to one event in Worcester on the 19th August.

Depending on interest would something more south be an option in the new year? Feb or sumtin? If so I’ll continue to ask around for potential venues Bang up for Worcester!

Hope this is OK, MM (can't seem to add an attachment to a message). If it needs amending, let me know. TT
