Sorry for the late notice, but unfortunately the Glasgow Jam scheduled for tomorrow is cancelled due to a lack of venue.  I'll keep trying to get a venue for future though.

Hi all

Just a wee reminder that the next Edinburgh balloon jam is this Monday 19th March from 7.30 at The Orchard Bar, 1-2 Howard Place, Edinburgh EH3 5JZ.  As always it's free and open to anyone (over 18) who wants to come along, regardless of experience.

I thought we'd set a theme of transport, just in case we're bereft of ideas for getting started, but obviously we can play it by ear.

Just an update on the Glasgow Jams – I'm really sorry to those over west, but I'm struggling to find somewhere in or around Glasgow to hold this.  (I live and work in Edinburgh, so it's difficult for me to get over there to see anywhere and book it).  If anyone wants to take this on, please just shout, but otherwise I'm only going to be able to organise Edinburgh ones – sorry.

If anyone needs more details, please email me on neilatstylecelebrationsdotcom (substituting @ for 'at' and . for 'dot').

Hopefully see you Monday!

Ali, thank you, sir - it was great to meet you, as well as Gareth and Dave.  Here's to many more jams together.

Just a shame there were only a few of us last night, but we had great fun and a few of the diners/drinkers in the bar got some very nice freebies!!

Thanks also to Travis for taking a few snaps - we'll get these uploaded as soon as poss.

Next jam scheduled for 16th April at The Orchard, as usual - will send a reminder out nearer the time.

Thanks again

Are you all being paid for product placement? Cans of Irn Bru and copies of Balloon Magic Magazine! Only joking - looks like you guys are having a great time. There is talk of a skype link up between the London and Scottish jams at some point in the future - now that would be clever!
