Discworld 2008

[Who's Wee Dug]

this is a cross posting as I could not find the con thread when it moved.

Full details of membership and hotel costs will be announced when we
launch the revamped website at Easter, but we are planning an
introductory membership fee of £50 (a £5 increase on the 2006 starting
price).
The previous three conventions were hosted at the Hinckley Island Hotel
and many of the attendees at those events have very happy memories of
those events and of the hotel. For many members (and committee staff),
the Hinckley hotel became almost synonymous with the Discworld
convention. However, while the 2006 convention was a great success, the
hotel itself did not provide an entirely perfect experience, although
the friendly and helpful attitude of many of the staff was, once again,
an important contributor to an enjoyable weekend.

The committee thought very hard before choosing a new venue for the
convention, but we are very excited by the possibilities of the new
hotel. In particular, we are looking forward to making the most of a
main event room that can seat the entire membership (so no more people
missing out on the opening ceremony or Terry's interview).

Most of all, though, we are excited about seeing you there. We want to
see our old friends and regular attendees, who have done so much to
create the happy memories of previous discworld events that motivate us
to work towards the next convention. We want to see the new members and
the suprises and new ideas they will bring. And Terry will be turning up
at some point, don't forget.

Much more information will be available when we relaunch the website:

Until then, hello again and I'm looking forward to seeing you in
Birmingham.

The Conventions board is now in the Publishers section.
