Awww. It was last Friday.

Well, I can't speak for everyone obviously, but I certainly had a lot of fun at the 2012 Event and it seems as if most people enjoyed themselves.

We managed to fit some presentations in amongst the refreshment breaks, cocktails, and dinners, and Saturday night was enhanced by some pretty spectacularly bad performances. And then after Eurovision we outdid ourselves with masterpiece theatre the likes of which you will never see again (we can only hope).

Shortly the presentations will be available here as vodcasts, and the minutes of possibly the shortest AGM in the history of Writercon UK will go up.

But before you come over all flush with those exciting prospects consider this: There will be mini-meets later this year! Oh yes, there will! And next year too!

And before you hyperventilate yourself into a faint, any day soon the poll to decide dates for next year's Event weekend will go up!

But wait... There's more! We already have a full line-up of presentations for 2013's Event!

Yes! You read that correctly! (Can I get any more exclamation marks into this post? Yes! I can!) We have a full line-up!^* And it's not even 2013 yet!







*All presenter appearances subject to work commitments

Event 2012.

Oh dear! So much for group members at the event keeping those of you who weren't able to be there up to date... I apologise on behalf of everyone.

The only excuse is that we were busy 'doing things'.

The Ramada Hotel in Coventry now knows us pretty well - and upgraded almost all of us from basic rooms to the slightly more up-market ones that have their own wee sitting area.

They also coped with the request for us to be able to watch Eurovision as a group - reserving the TV end of the bar for us so that we could all sit and snark and cheer/jeer as the acts required, whilst drinking assorted beverages, many of them of an alcoholic nature. I have discovered that I rather like Martini after-eight cocktails!

But this is looking past the main part of the event...

I return to Saturday morning ( under this cut )

And I will finish there for now - much fun had, things learnt - and the report still to come from when we actually shared what we had learnt with each other on Sunday morning.
