[interactionfilk-discuss] Glasgow Worldcon (Interaction) Filk Hotel announcement

[rafe@xxxxxxxxxx (Rafe Culpin)]

I just realised this never got copied here. It's from Bill.



With hotel reservations opening this weekend for the 2005 Worldcon in 
Glasgow (Interaction), we wanted to make sure everyone knew what hotel 
all-night filking would be in. Unfortunately, we were not able to get 
the information in time for PR2, so pass this info to anyone that you 
know will be likely to attend.

All-night filking will take place in three function rooms of the Glasgow 
Moat House Hotel, which is the main convention hotel and is connected by 
covered walkways to the SECC and all daytime programming.

The good news is the location, in that the nighttime fan program and 
real ale bar are also located in the Moat House, plus convenience to the 
main programming for those hauling instruments.

The (sort of) bad news is that, like most UK hotels, space is limited, 
so you will likely want to get your reservation as soon as possible.

For those who are unable to get a reservation at the Moat House for 
whatever reason, we are looking into the possibility of a having a suite 
at the Moat House set aside for instrument storage. We would try to make 
sure the room is staffed for instrument check-in and check-out for as 
many hours as possible (particularly during and after open filking 
times), but this will completely depend on the number of volunteers we 
can get.

For right now, if you are planning to attend the Worldcon in Glasgow and 
would like to be in the late-night filk hotel, use 
http://www.infotel.co.uk/worldcon/ to make your reservations as soon as 
you can after September 3.

More filk information should be contained in future PRs, including 
volunteer opportunities as well as concert and programming plans.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact bill at bsutton

Cheers,

Bill
