Stone in Shoe Bob Posted January 4, 2008 Report Share Posted January 4, 2008 Pardon me, is that Porstmouth and Bristol, Rhode Island? :confused!: Only kidding! No silly, just like when John is counting Revs for the Global Rev count we only count the genuine article, reproductions and imitations don't count.

Baloo Posted January 5, 2008 Report Share Posted January 5, 2008 Not been to Bristol B4, hope to go this year. Dont forget Portsmouth is only the previous weekend if you are thinking of making the trip over here. You could sort of get 2 for the price of 1. I want to make it to both hopefully. I am sure someone will be able to help you out. Probably be more info on the web soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The website is still Blank. I've just Googled it, on the theory that the settings my UK based PC may be a little more successful than a US based one, but to be honest I’ve not come up with much about 2008 or even as much by way of reports on previous years as I had expected but here’s the best of what I found by way of an appetizer. http://myweb.tiscali.co.uk/teamspectrumkit...tol%202007.html http://www.gwrfmbristol.co.uk/article.asp?id=458780 http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=zN9PJoC5hNE&...feature=related http://good-times.webshots.com/album/553786484uNeuCS http://www.ashtoncourtestate.co.uk/kite-festival.htm http://www.thisisbristol.co.uk/displayNode...command=newPage http://myweb.tiscali.co.uk/teamspectrumkit...tol%202007.html http://www.totaltravel.co.uk/travel/west-c...l-kite-festival Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crazy.drivers Posted January 12, 2008 Report Share Posted January 12, 2008 Dear felix !!!!! we 'll reach international Portsmouth kite festival and also bristol keep in touch if you get more information about rev' kite birthday....!!!!!!! se you !!! crazy drivers... Hi Damien,Discussions are under way between various interested parties and there should be some celebration but the precise form has not been discussed at this stage. I think that it would be safe to say that any celebration would feature team flying! I understand that light wind team flying went well at Portsmouth this year!

KiteLife Posted January 12, 2008 Report Share Posted January 12, 2008 Aye, looks like it at this point... The Bristol thing is just too big to pass up. We're exploring having a 2nd squad at WSIKF though, we've got a senior member available with Todd sitting out of the England trip. Will keep everyone posted.

Felix Posted January 13, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2008 Dear felix !!!!!we 'll reach international Portsmouth kite festival and also bristol keep in touch if you get more information about rev' kite birthday....!!!!!!! se you !!! crazy drivers... Dear Crazy Drivers, It is great to hear that you intend to attend the events. Please could you and other respondents be aware of the following draft message:- <'It is great to hear you're interested as we are all very excited about this celebration. We are still in planning stages and neither Bristol nor Portsmouth can at the moment promise to cover any of your costs. We do want as many teams as possible to join the party but funds and accommodation will be limited unless you are happy to make your own arrangements. Please let us know if you could get your own sponsorshop to help cover costs of your travel and accommodation'.> The organisers need to know, on the one hand, the level of interest in attending the event, and on the other, the possibility of raising sponsorship given the level of interest, either by the fliers or the organisers. It would be helpful to know who would be interested in committing to spending time 'flying' between the events, probably based at or near Bristol. Obviously this would have to be self funded except possibly for the core festival invitees. Information about accommodation etc. will be researched in due course. I hope that we will have further information about the Rev' Kite Birthday as well, soon. Best wishes Felix Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PLease keep me informed about the ins and outs. Looking forward to this very special event ! Dear Time Out, I hope that you will indeed be able to attend the Bristol event. Please see my other message about the festival organisation. Please let us know the number of fliers in your team and any other details that may be helpful.

Felix Posted January 15, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2008 Dear Felix,We will attend the Bristol event with four fliers. Looking forward to it. Ruud Time Out Dear Ruud, Thanks for the information. I think we need a list. Can someone suggest the best way to do this on this site. There are a number of considerations. We need Team Names and the Fliers Names, Individual Fliers, attendance at Portsmouth, between Portsmouth and Bristol, and attendance at Bristol. Obviously these could be flagged as provisional or confirmed. I hope that we will soon have details of accommodation options for both events and 'in-between' but this is probably dependant on getting an idea of numbers. Would it be sensible to start another thread for this. Advice please! Thanks Felix Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
giuseppe Posted January 18, 2008 Report Share Posted January 18, 2008 Hi Felix, I think that a list is a good idea so everybody can take a look at what other teams are planning. In spanish forum http://foro.cometas.info/index.php, administrator creates a single thread were the very first post contains a table of people that is updated by him regularly (nobody else can modify it, obviousy), according to the comments people write down in the following posts of that same thread. So everything is in one single place. Well this is the idea. Best regards jose luis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
giuseppe Posted January 18, 2008 Report Share Posted January 18, 2008 By the way, I forgot to mention that Team Bolau will be present in one of the August events, we've not been able to confirm which one yet. We are really exited and happy to have the opportunity to participate in such BIG reunion. See you very soon ...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have to go to an event on Sunday, North of London, so it maybe Monday before I can set about drawing up the initial list.

david ellison Posted January 21, 2008 Report Share Posted January 21, 2008 Hi Felix Just wondering whether there will be any space for experienced individual fliers to join in the mega flys at Portsmouth and Bristol? I don't fly with a team but hope that the plans can handle a few buskers! It would be a shame to miss out on the party cheers, David Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Felix Posted January 21, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 21, 2008 OK, please could everyone check the attached spreadsheet.It makes interesting reading! Thanks Felix Who is going to be attending Valencia and Berck-Plage (final weekend)? After the 'proof of concept' fly at Dunstable yesterday I think that we should take evey opportunity to get all potential participants 'up to speed'. I have attached the revised list (DE added as Individual Flier). It occurs to me that we could add other events to the list for reference. Is it possible to host it on the Rev Site? Thanks Felix Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fraserx Posted January 21, 2008 Report Share Posted January 21, 2008 Wow - what a list!! Just about every 'big' name I ever heard is on it - and I was wondering whether I should try to come down!! :confused!: Fraser Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
