>    * a location - requirements detailed above
> So this is sorted now, yes

>    * food - breakfast, lunch, dinner, snacks for the two days
> Well, it's just the one day now, isn't it?

>    * drink - cold, hot, soft, hard - wine for \"geek dinners\" I know
>      this isn't really a dinner, but I'd be happy to make contact and see
>      if they could do anything for us. JC
> There's something on the Facebook event about this, istr.

>    * wifi - hopefully the location will be able to provide this too.
> Do we know about this: should probably print out (in a LARGE type-face)
> any keys needed, lots of times over. Perhaps lots of
> power-strips/muulti-pug extension leads, too?

>    * goodies - as is customary at barcamps, at least T-shirts for all
>      the attendees.
> Something our hosts could provide? Or do we need to look to other folks?

>    * entertainment - maybe some sort of social event on the Saturday

> Local to the event/West End/Vauxhall/Somewhere else? It's been a while
