The Edinburgh QLis30 event is booked for 11th October 2014. This was the
date that most people wanted.
The venue is the Gyle Hall of the St. Thomas Episcopal Church, Glasgow
Road, EH12 8LJ.
The venue is on the main road from Edinburgh city centre to Edinburgh
Airport and Glasgow. The bus service too and from the airport has a bus
stop outside the church.
We shall be posting a dedicated website giving details of accommodation
and travel arrangements, but this is unlikely to be online before mid
June. I need to go to Edinburgh to do some research and photography for
the site. I am in Edinburgh on 31st May and 6th June so it is saves me
time and money to wait until then.
So far 17 people from 6 lands have expressed an interest so we have
achieved our first aim of getting an international group of QL-ers
together.
There are Marriott and Holiday Inn hotels on the same bus route as the
church but we shall publish detailed information of these and other
hotels on the website.
Also travellers from the continent may like two early details. Any one
wishing to come by car may like to consider the overnight DFDS ferry
from IJmuiden in the Netherlands to Newcastle. This would save a long
drive in the UK. Any one thinking of travelling by Eurostar should note
that the London terminal is next door to Kings Cross station with trains
to Edinburgh.
We hope to have Skype at the event, but none of the organisers has Skype
experience. I hope to have this by October,
Best Wishes,
Geoff
