Ideally, I would like everyone who plans or hopes to come, to use the Festival Forum at <http://greekfestival.proboards52.com> to stay in touch, get the latest news from me and raise any problems they may have so that we can all look for solutions. Andrew Tarnaris set it up for me and it's under-used. I'll bet you can guess who's posted there! :lol: Essential information will appear there, some of which I won't be able to post on the Festival Website. So, all you naughty non-users of the Forum, YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED! :twisted: (Isn't it funny how Ancient Egyptians had names like web-addresses? :lol: )
