to find out how to get there.
PLEASE NOTE: We won't be putting up road signs this year. (We always stay
up till 3am putting up signs, and by 8am most of them have been nicked, so
we've decided there's no point).

- Cost: £5
- Juggling Space: We have a large hall for all day juggling, extra
rooms for workshops and a bar next door.

strong language. It might not be suitable for parents who are easily offended.
(It should be fine for children though).

the free Circusoc Sunday Workshop from 2.30pm to 5pm, at the same

For offers of show acts, chocolate or anything groovy, please email Ali.
If you have a workshop you would like to run, or would like to offer a nice cup of tea, please email Oli.
For general convention enquiries, and early or late xmas presents, please email Ellie.
Yes, Ali, Oli and Ellie. So there. :-)
BoB ended up being organised a little later than usual this year, so if you would be so kind as to download the flier/poster, print it off,
and display it at your local club, that would be greatly appreciated - Thanks!
