okay, early result suggests £200 would be a reasonable absolute max, which obviously, we will try and go under as much as is able
some places are coming back at £7k, which with 35 people hits the £200 mark
and if we can get 40+ is in to the <£170 territory

<@&1032739312804049009> We are BOOKED for the Manifold Farmhouse on FRIDAY 8TH SEPTEMBER 2023 to MONDAY 11TH SEPTEMBER 2023. We have an absolute max capacity of 48 this year, which is the biggest meet we've had so far.
I have paid a £1800 deposit, with the balance due in June.
So, the next step? Book your annual leave. Book your travel. Most importantly, SEND ME YOUR DEPOSIT. This year I'm asking for £70 up front - the final calculation will depend on exactly how many people attend.
Please send payments to my UK bank account if you are a UK resident (ending 753). For those in funny foreign money, please use my Revolut account. If you don't have my bank details, DM me.
Please remember, once you pay a deposit you are committed to coming - we can't afford for people to not pay their share. If you have to drop out you can try and find somebody to take your place. Partners are welcome as extras.

from my copy of the mabinogion which has a rough pronunciation guide, y in welsh is 'uh' unless it's in the last syllable, and then it's 'ih'
because my teeth are a bit mangled the ll is always a bit tough for me to chain into other syllables but if you get from uhn to lleth there's a tiny bit of an implied t there? more just of a function of putting the tongue in the right spot to do the proper ll sound rather than part of how you said it. So I imagine.... mach (ch like loch) uhn lleth. And I just said it to Jade and she said I got it right so I'm the winner.

Hi <@&1032739312804049009>
I am making the full payment on the 16th June to the venue, which means I'm taking a big hit on my credit card. It does, however give you all a bit longer to firm up your plans and gather some cash dollar. I do however need to get final numbers locked in by realistically speaking, the 23rd of June. I need payments from that date, once we've locked numbers, by the end of June in order to pay the credit card.
@wooden tulip are you able to come? I know you were investigating!
@pliant iris anything from your friends?
If we have the current sign ups as is, we stand at 32 people attending. Honestly, this is lower than we had expected and planned on, based on previous years, which is going to negatively impact on the price per head. It also means for future meets I'm going to be a lot tighter on bed control.
At 32 people we would work out £222 per head.
So final plea. If you have friends who may want a fun weekend, please invite them.
NB: This is not payment for everything required, just accommodation. Food/Drink money is not needed until mid August)
(I do realise I shouldn't be too sad as actually this is still ridiculously cheap compared to what a decent hotel or airbnb costs for a weekend)

Could come back the Sunday too I suppose

I do not need food or drink money from you until mid August.

Is this in addition to the deposit or in total?
spare mauve
in addition
the accommodation has come to £222 per head, which is more than expected due to lower sign ups and a bunch of drop outs
we were expecting 35-40 people to be coming
I won't deny being disappointed, but the flip side is we have plenty of spare beds, so less sharing

- Please put your travel details in to the spreadsheet so we have an idea of when planes land, trains arrive etc.
- Do not arrive at the venue before 1600
- If you haven't booked travel do it right now
- This is your last opportunity to tell me what food etc. I need to be buying, especially if you have dietary requirements
- Join the Signal group (pinned) for communication
- Feel free to reach out to me directly if you have any problems or queries
- I will be allocating bedrooms in advance, look for post-its on doors. Swaps are of course allowed
- I will be travelling on the Thursday evening, so issues ideally need to be raised in advance or via Signal at this point

It's going to be really hot in the UK over the next few days. Make sure to get some sunscreen once you get to the UK. Keep plenty of water with you while travelling, particularly as it is unlikely local bus and train services will have air con available.
If anyone finds they're struggling with the heat during travel, or at the meet, make sure to let people know.
In fact, I'll buy some bottles of sunscreen for communal use so when you get to the meet and want to go on walks, spend time outside you can safely
