Hello Harry.
It's no excuse but I try to have nothing to do with the site and leave it all to the other organisers (I can't do everything) but thank you very much for brining it to my attention. I will ensure that it is sorted today and some sort of copy as to what is happenning in the future will also be posted as well as the dates.
With regards to The pub in Stonegate we no longer store equipment there as we were very fortunate to be offered free storage in the city centre by York council.
However there is a sword an armoury shop opposite where I also store some equipment for a Roman tour that I run and if you ever need to contact me that would be a good place.
Infact if anybody is ever coming to York and wants to go on the tour let me know and I will arrange some free tickets for family friends etc.
The guy that is doing it for me is quite new and it would do him good to have some large crowds, even if they are critical! it's every Sat at 1pm
With regards to marketing I know it is a major problem and it's something that will be severley addressed for next year though I really wanted to get the formula right. We've spent the last few years haviong to jump through hoopes for sponsors stretching us all over the city but I honestly think that to have the whole camp and arena together is the right way forward, and what better place than behind an original fortress wall that stands almost (give or take a few inches) to it's original height.
Hope to see you there.
