A Time, A Place

Right, folks!

[livejournal.com profile] nopseud and I have done much scouring of the internet, and have in fact found a place that looks perfect for this year's Camp Sparkle. SThe one possible disadvantage is that it's in the same general area as last year's Camp Sparkle—on the other hand, it's a very convenient area, whether you're, say, driving a minibus or getting a train or plane, and there's still *plenty* that we haven't explored around there. Oh, and it has a hot tub. Best of all, if there are twenty of us it will work out at just £61 per head - an incredible bargain compared to everything else we have found.

So nice is the place, indeed, that it is mostly booked already. I've just spoken to the owner and put in a provisional booking for the week of 7th-14th May, so what we need to do now is figure out if that week will work for Camp Sparkle, so that I can either confirm and pay up the booking deposit, or book for a week in, let us say, mid-September instead.

So what we need to know is - can you make it for May 7th, or shall we make it September (same rate as May, or possibly cheaper) instead?

[Poll #1513573]

Please comment with whatever extra information there may be - eg you can only make it for the weekend in May but could manage a week in September, or, you can't possibly do September so May is your only option—whatever.

My current students leave on the 8th May, which means I'll be working the 8th, but also means I can reasonably take at least one or two days off the week following, to come Sat night/Sunday to Tuesday or something - hurray!

(I don't have a firm calendar for Sept yet, but historically September tends to be full of students, but students who have *arrived* so I can have the weekend off, so, in conclusion, I can only do a part of the week either way, and whatever works for everyone else is cool, and OMG CAMP SPARKLE YAY!)
