    I'll be going!

    Below are two emails from Nicky to the emeraldcircus yahoo group (worth joining for info on juggling in Ireland) with all the info.

    Stephen.


    The location will be Queens University which is in a
    nice area of Belfast just outside the city centre
    (Queens area is where most of Belfast's night life is
    anway).

    We have a good sized hall in the students union for
    the following times:

    Friday 10th:
    7pm till close (~1.30am)

    Saturday 11th:
    10am-7pm

    Sunday 12th:
    12pm - 7pm

    There are hostels very close by Queens. The closest
    hostel is the Ark hostel, their site is:
    http://www.arkhostel.com/
    though there is currently no info there besides a
    contact.

    Do *NOT* book in Linen House hostel as this is not
    close to the convention, is crap anyway and in a crap
    area as well. There are also lots of B&B's and stuff
    near Queens in addition to the hostels close by.


    Queens University Juggling Convention 10th - 12th
    February 2006

    Colleen has arranged a deal with the Ark hostel which
    is very close to Queen's Student's Union. If you are
    making reasonable sized bookings, the price per bed is
    £10 instead of £12. Apparently the hostel has just
    been re-furnished and they currently have plenty of
    space for the February weekend. It is extremely close
    to the convention hall. Their site has contact info
    only. Contact info is below:

    Ark hostel
    16-20 University St
    Belfast, BT7 1FZ
    Tel: 028 9032 9626

    There is another hostel called Paddy's Palace very
    close by the main convention hall as well. The contact
    details are as follows:

    Paddy's Palace Hostel
    70 Fitzwilliam St
    Belfast, BT9 6AX
    Tel: 028 9033 3367
