I am trying to organise a steam gathering on the friday night outside the lilly on the West shore,i thought this would kick of the event and be a good photo oppertunity,hope it comes off.

Yorkie has promised to come along and generate some hot air. 

Seriously, good idea, Wrex, hope it does come off. 

[Nemesis]

Please let us know the time later Wrex. Tks

[wrex]

If it comes about Nemisis it will be between 6 30 and 8,if its a nice evening it could be a good start to the weekend.

[Nemesis]

Sounds a great idea to me.

I would not even attempt to exceed your own powers in this respect and will be pleased to leave you in charge of the firing, stoking and total steam generation - I would however suggest that you have your boiler certified prior to lighting the fire!   After, of course, checking that you are allowed to play with matches!   ZXZ

Sorry i made a mistake the lancashire fisiliers will be in the parade and playing in the Arena on the Sunday and not the saturday,there are at least 60 in the band and will look impressive leading the parade,remember this year it will be leaving from the Albert hotel at 1pm ZXZ

Just been checking availability for the weekend of the event,been on lots of sites and lots of hotels are full already with 8 weeks to go,really glad the hoteliers get this weekend to kick start their season.

[wrex]

Book your weekend away because its coming.

[wrex]

Programmes are out and available in the tourist office for £1 ,we have had to bring the price down due to the times which is not a good reflection on the event,i personally think there is not enought people who want the event to carry on,it does bring people in but we cannot change anything without the help of the people who benefit,i really think its hard to explain to the tourist trade that we are doing it for them and the town and not ourselves,the responsibility is enourmous and the support is dyeing,until we call it a day,people will not give us a hand.

[Fester]

Well Wrex, I don't benefit from it financially, but I love it nonetheless.

As usual, I have several members of the Fester clan booked in for the Extravaganza weekend, they all spend like sailors on shore leave, (especially my Mum) ... and the hotels, charities and stalls will all benefit immensely.

Thanks Fester,do you think the Hospitality assoc should run the event as they may beable to get some support.
