(Note that it's generally RPGs that get played, with the odd boardgame happening in breaks between games, or during a slot with people at a loose end.) WHO'LL BE THERE? Traders We're getting popular, so we're trying an experiment this time. We will have two traders along! They're all old friends of Concrete Cow, so hopefully everyone will know what to expect.
All the traders are nice people, so if there's something specific or special you want, make sure you ask them to bring it along! The traders won't be there for the full fourteen hours, but details of exactly when each trader will be attending will be fixed nearer the time. Gamers That's you guys! And all the fantastic games you'll bring along and run. If you let us know what you're planning to run, we'll put it on the Concrete Cow games (http://www.mk-rpg.org.uk/Concrete_Cow_games) page. (Note that for child protection reasons, under-16s will need to be accompanied by an adult at Concrete Cow.) WHERE? The Old Bath House, Wolverton, in the north-west corner of Milton Keynes. The full address is The Old Bath House 205 Stratford Road Wolverton Milton Keynes MK12 5RL Maps are available on MK Web (http://www.mkweb.co.uk/mkmap/home.asp?X_Coord=481675&Y_Coord=241213&Xpt=0&Ypt=0&bgimage=1&icons=no&osrefs=no&panonclick=no&quickchangemap=no&SearchTerm=mk12+5rl&Scale=3), Google Maps (http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?ie=UTF8&hl=en&om=1&msa=0&msid=109875040320471981688.00043b8384fd19ad697b9&ll=52.07191,-0.808182&spn=0.178743,0.363922&z=12), Streetmap.co.uk (http://streetmap.co.uk/newmap.srf?x=481745&y=241233&z=0&sv=mk12+5rl&st=2&pc=mk12+5rl&mapp=newmap.srf&searchp=newsearch.srf), and Google Earth (http://scripts.njae.me.uk/downloads/concrete-cow-09.kmz). Directions for drivers are on the Concrete Cow directions (http://www.mk-rpg.org.uk/Concrete_Cow_directions) page. Regular trains to Milton Keynes run from London Euston station. The nearest station to the con is Wolverton (one stop north of Milton Keynes Central), about five minutes' walk away. (If you're coming by train, beware the ticket price difference between Milton Keynes Central and Wolverton. It might be cheaper to get the train to MK Central, then a taxi (about £5-6) or a bus (http://www.mkweb.co.uk/Travel/Buses/) (£2-3) to Wolverton.) The Old Bath House is next to the large Tesco store in Wolverton. Once you get off the train, ask for directions to Tesco, climb the stairs by their front door, and you'll be outside the entrance to the Old Bath House. HOW MUCH? Still only £5.00. The costs will just be to cover the cost of hiring the hall. Under 16s are free, but note that we can't take responsibility for them. |
