Been a long time since I posted about Milton Keynes Juggling Convention, mainly due to the venue not actually confirming availability until last Friday! However it is still going ahead on 12th November. The website has been updated www.mkjc.co.uk
The Edge normally gets the full line up first with a trickle feed happening on Facebook for several months beforehand. I can't give you the full line up as yet as I am still waiting for four acts to confirm whether they are free from other commitments but the acts that are currently confirmed are:
Mark Watson (Compere)
Concrete Circus
Brook Roberts
Jay Rawlings (performing his material rather than Steves)
Jonathan the Jester
Arthur Hyam
Hope to see you all in a month,
Nigel

If it's the Milton Keynes Juggling Convention time of year, then it only seems right for me to say that I was in MK Museum on Saturday, and your Mum said hi and remembered my name.
There was the traditional slight confusion over the sandwich ordering system (which truth be told, I rather enjoy!) and I remain as complimentary as ever about her cakes. This year I had a scone and a slice of victoria sponge, which were both excellent, although I'd have had the lemon drizzle cake if the person in front of me hadn't snaffled all 4 of the remaining slices!
Unfortunately, I have other commitments on the 12th, so yet again - I'm unlikely to make it to the MK Convention...
If anyone making the trip to MK is staying over in the area for the weekend, I can thoroughly recommend a trip to visit the museum on the Sunday. https://www.miltonkeynesmuseum.org.uk it's a cracking day out!

That's unforgivable in web design, IMHO.
Can now add:
Emily and Joe - Acrobalance
Nader Tuniziano - Cyr wheel
Just need one of the two people who said they would get back to me to confirm and we will have a full line up. Until someone cancels that is (four in the last month last year)

What will be happening in the Nigel workshop?
I wondered who would be the first person to make that comment and also who would make the obvious joke afterwards.
Thank you Danny and Void for not disappointing me.
