    HEXUS.social - Mfestival - 8th-11th August - Stonleigh Park, Warwickshire

    Thought I'd put this one out there....

    following on from the LAN discussion... i found this:

    M Festival

    It's the extension for I34...

    Computers and game + Hexites + beer (it's a LAN, there will be beer) + tents = a damn fine weekend.

    it's £10 for the day, or £25 for the weekend... which should make for quite a cheap weekend all in all.

    Good idea? Bad Idea?

    Sounds good. Will be working Friday, although normally it's a half day and Stoneleigh is only an hour away or so, but should be able to attend the most of the weekend.

    It's all fun and games until someone gets hurt; then it's bloody hilarious!

    Will take a bit of organising this one, as we'll need tents and things.
    Will have to check the rules on BBQ's and Beer (BYO!)

    Should be a fun weekend though...

    Past I-series events have been strictly no BYOB, due to Newbury Racecourse being a licensed venue. Im not sure about Stoneleigh park, Il have a look and post details later.

    There seems to be surprisingly no info about teh camping arrangements yet, it might be that they don't know them of course!

    You can't, there's a licensed bar on the premises. Annoying isn't it. (Applies to i34 not sure about the M Fes though)
