Some problems with the weekend.

[dwarfbabe]

I now have a cold, full blast heating can have the same effect as constant freezing weather in some respects, it is a venue issue but SM would need to direct them to alter it unless SM had direct control?

 

I also picked up a cold it seems but I think that was queuing outside at 8am that did that. I wouldn't have had I known it was an outdoor queue. Also don't forget there was the other event downstairs - and heat rises, could hardly tell them to turn it down.

 

I also have a cold but, for me, that's not unusual after attending an event. With the number of people you come into contact with at on such occasions, you're almost certain to pick up something. For me, it just part of the experience. Admittedly it's a part I could do without, but it is a part of it nonetheless.

There's even a name for it. "Con Crud."

I'm not sick from this one.... yet ^^

But I hope this will still be the case in a few days time :)

I didnt do the queue this time, I waltzed in at 9.30 straight off the train baby lol

 

down stairs was dead lol and the heating was deff coming out of the air con on level 1, when I walked in I got round to the main stage and suddenly thought why am I sweating and so hot and realized i hadnt taken my jacket off yet (it was a normal jacket also not a winter one) also realized I was standing under one of the aircon units. day 2 I stripped off by the orgs booth as soon as I got in

 

but alas I guess those who hated the stadium were ok at this one ;-) lol

Indeed we were! And thank God we won't be back in the wind tunnel!

I wouldn't put money on that. I'm hoping they'll have everything completed for the next MK event but I'll be packing my thermals just in case lol

[JacknDaniel]

I think if it's not ready by that point they'd be best just moving the event to London. With it being(I would assume) easier to get guests for London, and a good venue(or 2) there, I'd much rather see it held there than MK.

 

Used to love going to MK when it was in the mall, but since it moved i've hated those events

To be fair though SM have been very unlucky with the two stadium events, the first one we had a week of great weather followed by a grotty weekend, and the second one we had a grotty weekend followed by a week of great weather.

It was shorts weather on the Sunday, I went for a long walk. Outside the stadium was fine. Just inside was the complete opposite.

 

I've not seen anything online to see the venue situation will change anytime soon. They've played some of the sports at the shopping centre!

[JacknDaniel]

That's my point though, they may not know what the weathers gonna be like, but who really wants a venue where we have to rely on good weather for a good event. With our weather?

The sports area was freezing half the time - it suddenly got very warm if you went about 5 metres into the rest of the hall, but as someone who spent all weekend working with the sports guests in the cold part of the hall, I'd have enjoyed a little bit of heat

 

 

Temperature was okay for me, it wasn't too hot, if anything the sports area was too cold.

 

As one of the Sports GAs for the weekend, I agree it was a tad chilly down that end, but this was due to the fact that there were two refridgerated artic trailers directly below us, keep the (beer?) drinks cool for the show downstairs, but my jumper was enough to keep me warm. Well, that, and the amazingly funny banter between guests who have known each other for decades!

Kenny Sanson didn't look too cold sipping away on his glass of white wine on Saturday afternoon!

I had loads of layers on at the start of the day at MK, but then ended up having to take half of them off cos my job had my bombing back and fore

 

Loved the whole weekend, didnt mind it in the stadium, cant wait til next time!
