Hi Guys,
I was there as well, and as part of the instructors-group there, I can offer you some insights on the event looking at it from our direction; as teachers. Oh, by the Way, I was the Dutch guy teaching flintknapping.
You are very right when you say that the workshops were way to busy! this was especially true on Saturday. (I had 75 people on my Saturday workshop) On Sunday the attendance to workshops was a bit lower. (About 20 to 30 per workshop). There are plans to lighten the load on the saturday workshops by having more workshops to choose from.
For everybody involved in organising this, it was VERY difficult to gauge how many people would attend, what they would attend, and so on... We have all learned now what to expect, and how to work to make things better.
If anybody on this forum joined my flint-knapping course, I wish to thank you very much for your attendance. it was really great to work with you all! Any questions, you know where to find me!
I would also like to stress that Roger was not alone in organising this event! Dominic has done a great lot!!
So... Thank you Roger and Dominic!
