NEBO 6 set for November 2015

[Gazjam]

I went last week and had a look at the floor plan and sockets etc. I will take a picture of me drawing and post it tomorrow.

Worth remembering Steve that on the Day, you'll have as much help as you need, were all in the same boat!

Yep. Spot on.

I went down to the Schooner this morning and did a bit of a reckie.

Our venue is the “Mermaid” function room and is approx. 12m x 14m with a 3m ceiling.

It is split roughly in two with a lower dance floor having a wood floor and the upper seating area being carpeted.



The Bar is in the corner of the lower area and I believe they will be opening this, if not we will have to use the main bar in the next room.







The upper level is thickly carpeted and there are power outlets in all the likely set up spots.






There are plenty of sturdy tables to use, 2” thick wood tops and cast iron legs, they weigh a ton but are very stable for setting up a turntable etc.


Getting there:
We probably all have Sat Nav, but the easiest way of finding the Schooner, is to drive out of Hartlepool and along the sea front towards Seaton Carew. Look for the Staincliffe Hotel on your right and turn right just after it into Queen Street. Keep straight on as far as you can go through the housing Estate and when you reach the T-Junction at the end, the Schooner is straight in front of you.

For those whose Sat Nav brings them in from the South. Drive from Seaton Carew along the sea front towards Hartlepool and turn left into Queen Street just in front of the Staincliffe Hotel. You will see a Beacon Basket on your right just before the turning. Then straight on as above.

Parking:
Go to the left of the building and into the “L” shaped car park. Go along the side of the building in the car park and park round the back. The entrance to the “Mermaid” room is on the left corner of the building for unloading gear.

I think Steve has found a good venue here, hope you don’t mind me giving folks a heads up here Steve, not trying to take over or anything like that mate. The tables are very heavy so I will get there early to help arrange the room.

Excellent work Ken!

[Halfway Tree]

Looks like it's about 35 mins from my place so I can get there early to help setup tables, Steve.

Excellent work Ken and thanks Gordon. I did intend to take some pictures myself but due to one thing and another didn't get the opportunity so this has been very helpful. I have drawn a very rough floor plan which i will post this evening.

It looks like I'll be able to make it as the job I had an interview for isn't starting yet, although I have managed to secure some temp work (just down the road from Seaton Carew in Port Clarence) which means I'll be working until 1am on Friday night/Saturday morning. I hope to arrive by early afternoon if a get a decent nights sleep.

Looking forward to meeting you all
