yep, that's it in a nutshell. The slightly longer story was that there was definitely enough interest to go ahead and try (whether interest would translate into enough ticket sales is another question but it would have been just before the C&TS flanger run giving a few days of events), but the overwhelming response was that it would kill Pete's trip if we went ahead.

Pete still needs tickets to make his trip a go, so please consider signing up for it!
