Does anyone know the date and venue (or at least the region) for Hidden Earth 2008?

There had been speculation that it might be in Bury - somebody had mentioned.

Les mentioned in in Chat the other night but I'm blessed if I can remember where. Yorkshire I think.

Bury is no longer in Lancashire - whoever has it now can keep it

Its not booked yet. Several sites are being persude but until then there is nothing to announce.

It is due to be up north this year but until we have a confirmed booking nothing is guaranteed.

Like the sweep-stake idea. Whats the prize? I could be a winner.  :

Hi Les,
from past and personal experiences of HE, please take it on board to,
A; (if you are running the event through input of a public bar on site, get them to get lots in and then some, remember Kendal!!)
B; (If the crew are doing the drinks, think of those who do not drink Bitter,
the Lager & Cider ran out far too fast at tea time on Saturday HE 2007, much to the disgust of all us non bitter drinking so & so's!!)
Better to have surplus to sell to folks "cheaply" on Sunday afternoon, than have so much pissed off and not pissed on Sat night?

Just a personal observation,

Thanks,

Basher

Lager & Cider drinking soft so & so's, like me!
So Yorkshire produces the best bitter and Somerset produces the best Cider.
Les, we are living in each others garden of Eden?
As far as lager goes, who's moving to Germany??

confused as always

Whatever, just don't run out of caver type liquid fuel this time!!
Be it unleaded, super, or diesel, sorry bilge oil you call bitter!
This could go on for ages, Les , sort it if you can, even if we want to drink alcoholic beverages that do not meet your approval.
Flat Bitter drinking, caving so & so that you are!

To get back to the important stuff,
Have we a clue to a venue for HE up North yet?
Or maybe some ideas??

Not prepared to say yet but discussions are ongoing for an Ooop Norff venue

Current favourites in no particular order are Yorkshire, Lancashire and Cheshire. This list is not exhaustive though.

I would add that it is hoped to have more info before the end of this month.
