It was a good event - about 25 people turned up, which wasn't bad for the first one. The aim of the day was simply to have fun, share skills, and introduce any newcomers to the basics.

A provisional date has been set for next year - more details will be on http://www.whipcrackuk.co.uk as and when they become available.

Cheers

Dave

There were people wearing cowboy hats in the video, will the next event tolerate more elaborate costume, maybe as Indy?

I'm sure the door wouldn't have been locked on you if we saw you approaching in your fedora.

Who knows? If there's enough interest, maybe next year, we'll have a movie theme.
