Expo / The Smartphone Show

If you're planning on coming to the Expo and/ or pub meet and are interested in representing All About Symbian (that can mean as little as just doing a bit of writing) please could you let me know here (or by email).

If you would also be needing a hotel bed for the night please say so (and don't mind staying with other AAS people!). I'm puttting together some of the plans for the 10-12th October. I can't make any guarantees at this point (sorry!) but I may be able to provide some accommodation and limited expenses.

Cheers

Rafe

I'll gladly help out, both with the pub meet and the show 😊

Rafe, do you want me to enquire about the pub's availability?

Leave already booked.

BTW, if people need to book into a hotel the Easy Group now offer a cheap hotel in Central London and I have checked as rooms are still available for the Expo dates.

Address is:- http://www.easyhotel.com

Read this article earlier, and just wondered if there would be an Expo Special "The Mobiles Show"?

Just thought I would throw in as an idea. Maybe even a Pub Meet Podcast?

Just confirming that I'm for this, of course, for the meet/Monday night/first day of the show, at least. Really looking forward to it!

I should really get out of the habit of not lurking here when I format my PC. I don't come for a few days, think "they'll be too many posts to read since I was last there, I'll do it later" then when I finally lurk again I miss the important bits, and there hasn't been as many posts as I thought....

I doubt I'll ever get to one of these.

Oooh I'm actually off the 10th, though I'm on nights on the 11th. So I could make the pub meet. Though this does present a getting into London, crashing somewhere, getting home debacle.

I'm driving there and back same day just for the pub meet as I didn't get a response on the Show (So didn't make any hotel plans).

Looking forward to the meet though. 😊

So far I have registered Ewan, Steve, Paul and myself as AAS press. If you want me to register you as press I need your details (phone number, Symbian phone you use and an up to date email address).

If you;re not worried about being registered as press please feel free to register as a normal delegate on the Smartphone show site. Anyone is welcome (J2theIzzo - I may have missed your message(s)).

Jordan, the Congestion Charge in �8.00 per day. Congestion Monday to Friday 7am - 6.30pm, excluding Public Holidays. Please can we add Congestion Charge info too the Pub Meet Post as may affect Any/All drivers attending.

I have already registered but I think I can update them to press on day as last year. If you do need my details then check the email I have sent.

Thanks Paul!, i'll try and find suitable parking space and post what I find here.

Rafe, no matter now. I'll just attend the pub meet 😊

I've already registered for the show, but if you can upgrade me to press, then so much the better. 😊 I've PM'd you...

Thank god for TomTom 😊

DO NOT go anywhere near anything run by Apcoa!

(they're the bunch of shisters who run most of the London council's parking departments, and are known for having attendents who make up fake tickets)
