Bath Juggling Convention 2015 - Mini Review

Here follows a brief review of the Bath Juggling Convention 2015.

Liked
Great big hall, plenty of room for everyone.
Nice show venue with a good view of the entire stage.
Seeing some folk who I do not get to see very often due to geography.
The show acts were of high quality.
The place on campus where we had our tea. Good food and we arrived before the rush.

Disliked
The show venue having a maximum capacity meaning some people were unable to purchase a show ticket.
Arriving at the reg desk only to be told that the convention tickets have to be purchased from another building across campus. We weren't the only ones who had to make this trip.
Having felt pen drawn on my hand to prove I have paid. Is my convention ticket not valid proof of payment?
Having to move all our stuff in the hall halfway through the morning as that particular wall was needed for a unicycle workshop. Perhaps stick signs up before people arrive and put their stuff there?
Halfway through the day the Uni staff declaring that only white soled trainers were allowed in the hall.

Found very funny
‘half shower’ being called during 5 club endurance. I ignored it because I thought it was joke...
Marky Jay’s compering of the show, I was greatly amused.
The raffle. (deserving of its own thread..?)
Convention thank you’s.


There were just a few organisational things which need clearing up to make next year run a little smoother, however Bath remains one of my favourite conventions of the UK convention scene and I look forward to coming again next year!

Cheers, Jon
