To be fair it is all relative whether its north or south.. for me..

Coventry was 3 hours south
Cardiff was 5 hours south
DTD was 2.5 hours south
Stoke was 3 hours south
Luton was 4 hours south

Really don"t care where the events are, as long as they"re professionally run as always, the casino / staff are pleasant, dealers have banter and the bar is well stocked.

We are not there yet, lets see whether Fri and Sat brings the answers needed.  Either way we"ll definitely be posting a 24hr notice of the announcement because its likely to be a busy night with some of the stuff we"re going to put out.  




TBF didn"t quote which Fri or Sat it would be..  ;D

We are awaiting one important confirmation at the moment. Frustrating for all of us. Coventry at the end of June will be the second event of season seven, so you can start planning for that weekend and we will get the rest of the dates out when we are able to announce the season as a whole.

I"ve not been to the casino in Coventry, but apparently it"s very, very nice isn"t it?... Vegas style fountains in the lobby and everything?...

Alas, I"m unable to attend this event (have a stunt driving lesson - really! lol).

Fountain/Waterfall is actually downstairs by the bar next to the escalators...and I presume you mean the Don Roberts Memorial Fountain...so named when he attempted to walk on water one particularly balmy night.



Oh...is it definite for 29th / 30th?...there are some cracking hotel deals about.

Ricoh Arena is £40 per night which is not bad. Is that hotel any good?

Steve,

It"s fine, I did it for one night after a late Sunday Omaha victory a couple of years back.

One of their images which gives you a rough idea



Normally I would be at the HI a few miles away which I can get for a few quid cheaper than the De Vere (Travel Tips coming up once the date is confirmed) but it"s about only about £3 difference and I wouldn"t have to drive so this will probably be my first option this time.

Don"t forget to give back to APAT via the Laterooms link

Hmm...on thinking about it...I may, for purely personal reasons, do the HI.

Pub nearby suits me and if i have to get a cab back on the odd occasion, so be it.
