GBC display in Fana'Briques, June 28-29 - call for participants

[Jean-Marc Nimal]

Hello GBC enthousiasts and others,

During the Fana'Briques event in Rosheim (France), we'll try to get use of the
extra space we have for the GBC to make it as big as we can!

Our ambitious aim is to reach 100 of modules,last year we had 29 but there were
a lot of known GBCers missing (Denmark, Germany, Italy, Netherlands,...), so
it's not that far-fetched.

I'm relying on people all over Europe, nay, the world, to come and participate!
GBC apart, the Fana'Briques event is set in one of the most lovely regions of
France, which double as very central for Europe... And it's as good a place as
any other to start a lovely holiday. Sun, wine... who needs sea anyway?

In any case, I'm trying to assess who will be participating in the GBC, so if
you intend to come, please let me know. Please keep in mind that participation
must be confirmed before may 15, especially if accomodation is required.

If you need more confirmation that this event will be a lot of LEGO fun (not
only GBC), have a look <http://www.freelug.org/article.php3?id_article=706 on
its page>

And if by chance you don't know what I mean by GBC, check
<http://www.teamhassenplug.org/GBC/ Steve Hassenplug's excellent pages on the
topic>. We usually follow his standard, which is a sure way to ensure everything
runs more smoothly than not. More or less :-)

If you have special modules (differing from the standard, flow-control,
whatever), just tell me - although we'll probably do most of the setting up the
good old trial-and-error way. It's the summer, things don't need to be
absolutely perfect, we're all there to get fun. And wine. And home-made
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tarte_flamb%C3%A9e flammekueche>. God, I can't
wait to be there...

So, who's coming?

Excellent, I was of course counting on you. Actually, I didn't even consider you
had a choice ;-)

Are you trying to turn this LEGO event into a gastronomical meeting! You're such
a gourmet ;-)

I'll be there - And yes that's a central place in europe. Many people from
belgium, germany, switzerland and the netherlands will have a shorter journey to
Rosheim than myself who lives in France ! But I don't forget that the trip is
part of the enjoyment of an event.

Jean-Marc,
Unfortunately, I won't be making it this year.  It's great to see GBC still
making waves in France!  I plan on an update to the website soon.  If there
are some links on it that people want me to add, just drop me an email at
webmaster@....
