Not missing this one

However Lady H, I think the title is a little misleading.....
Plane from Liverpool to Bristol don't exist
Train journey is a ball aching 3.5 hr journey and there's no direct route
Coach is 5hr journey with 3 or 4 changes! :eek:
So car it is.... I agree, once you get to Junction 18, it is pretty straight forward, however the actually getting to Junction 18 is the nightmare that lies ahead

Looking forward to this. With the trouble some of us affiliate go to in order to attend these events, lets hope networks tell their merchants and encourage them to attend, after all they are the people most of us want to meet face to face.

I've already started on my Sun dance to ensure the weather is top banana

If you want to meet up with a particular merchant let them know about the event - some networks don't like their merchants attending these events which is ludicrous, so sometimes its up to the affiliates to invite them.

If everyone does one or two merchants now by MSN it will make a difference.

I wasn't sure if this was 'acceptable' or not to be honest mate as it may upset networks. However I agree that it is ludicrous and will get straight on the case

First merchant to target is those A4uExpo people on POR

Sadly the DB9 isn't arriving until 18th August, but yeah, a chopper could be the best alternative

Hi Frostie,

I can confirm that we are actively encouraging our merchants to turn up and I have received confirmation today that two of mine will be there. I agree that it is a bit strange for a network to attempt to shield merchants from the competition and if the campaigns are being run well, then the client will not want to switch will they? Plus I'll fight any network that tries to talk to them, unless they're bigger than me!!!

If I get the merchants to turn up do you promise to put their links on your site?

Matt
