We just heard that 5 of the Scottish crew are heading down to the BKO. Great stuff.
Seems like a good time to announce that the titles of
Scottish...
Welsh...
Northern Irish...
English...
....Kendama Champion are up for grabs for people who hail from those countries.

I'll be making the trip too, don't fancy going back to Cardiff after the Saturday so going to get booking me a hotel for the night. any recommendations?

BKA

Kendama Europe will be trading at BKO.

@mreasyguy At least 8 other people are staying at http://www.almondsburyinterchangehotel.com, but it is a bit of a trek outside the city.

BKA

Kendama Europe are confirmed as a trader, and our main product sponsor at BKO. Thanks guys!

Plans for the Saturday!
12:00 - 13:00 Meet up by the fountains between St Augustine's Parade and Broad Quay. Hang out and click.
13.00 - 18:00 Wander on a little walking tour of Bristol, via college green, cabot tower, etc, ending up near the suspension bridge. Plenty of playing and sightseeing en route.
(For those hoping to meet us later in the day, an approximate route is shown on the maps. Please note, this is liable to change! We plan on having some phone-trackers active, so people can try and find us!)
19:00 Evening meal



That's the good weather plan. If things are looking a bit grim, then we'll probably be spending a lot more time in cafes, etc!

BKA

ROLL CALL!
It would be helpful for our planning to have a rough idea of who's turning up and entering what. Please can you confirm/adjust/add your details to this list. And don't forget we're still looking for help with judging. Thanks!

I'll be in for all contests on Sunday. I will be there on Saturday but am not sure when as we have some evening plans for the night before...
Also I may be bringing the support team, i.e. Chris.

Right now, I don't think I'll be able to come, it may change during the following weeks, but I'm not counting on it.

In any case, if I go it will be for the full weekend and to enter advanced.

I will definitely be there both days, As for division. I have been working on getting my time down on intermediate but Looking at the advanced list i may give it a stab, i will know by the end of the week which i wanna go for, there is just a few tricks i know that I haven't got so im going to work on them this week and will let you know for definite.
