I wont be able to make it, but will be in the CCR the following day on a couple of occasions.

On a side note, will there be any sort of raffle? I have a navy blue BA bag from the 70's-80's (looks like this one - https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/GREAT-CON...AAAOSwLlpZsZal) which I'm about to get rid of?

It's never been used, but I'm having a clear up with a baby on the way.

Will there be enough space for all of us in the area to the right when coming down the stairs? I remember it being very crowded last time.

I was in there recently, on unrelated business. I do not see how 30 people could squeeze comfortably into that space ...

You’ll be fine. You are not restricted to that space, I am sure they will allow FT’ers to also occupy the spaces for normal people
