Anyone excited?
On the choice of the Easter weekend - it"s great for me with no children and not having to have days off work (actually I teach so I can"t usually have Mondays off). Also, I have a partner who lets me go/comes with me if it"s held in a city which she fancies visiting while I"m playing (which is the case with Newcastle).
Do the majority of APATers have children or not. If the latter, these Bank Holiday weekends are perfect.
I suspect that the range of familial arrangements runs the full range with, perhaps, a slight skewing towards younger side without the full-on apron-strings
That"s not to say that the younger side don"t have other commitments which will mandate that they can"t make the more "remote" events, prior commitments, significant others, etc., will have their demands at weekends...especially holiday weekends.
Personally as a middle-aged single fellow with no kids, I"m VERY happy with the way S5 has been scheduled...but I fully acknowledge that I"m probably in a significant minority.
