Hi
Colin,
I'm
very sorry to hear about the ordeal you've had to recently go through. I'm glad
your son is now on the road to recovery and may I wish you, your wife and
Stephen a happy, long future.
Peter

Subject: [Fairlight-CMI] 2004 Meeting
It's Colin here. I had to put the 2004 Meeting to one side for 6
weeks because my 6 year old son Stephen has been threw a great
ordeal. He was in an intensive care unit for 3 weeks off the 6 weeks
fighting for his life and the other 3 by his bed in hospital. A few
members of this forum know about this and I want to openly thank
them for their great support shown to my wife and I when we needed
it most. I'm glad to say that Stephen is making a recovery and is
back home now were the healing process continues.
I want everyone who wants to attend the 2004 Meeting to email the
forum to state if they will be attending. I need 35-40 in numbers to
pay for the room and the whole day basically and keep the cost down.
(I want the day to cost no more than 40UK pounds each) Everyone will
have access to a very large standard sample bank and a bigger sample
bank for trading with other users. This alone is worth the price of
the day. It will be great to me all of you. I will still have a
couple of special guess on the day and it will happen this time with
or without me as another Fairlight user will take over if I can't
attend. BUT I'LL BE THERE!!!!!!!!!
pmjtaysom thankyou.......if you can bring the instruments, as I will
be flying in, you will get whatever samples of the largest libraries
I know for a Series III for your help. I will bring the HD full off
samples. I have 220 tapes also full of some very interesting samples
and songs. I have to work out how to get them off tape to a HD as I
do not have a tape streamer internally. If anyone has an external
case or Tape Streamer that they could lend me ASAP I will also give
them a copy of whatever samples and Hits I have.I will have some
parts, cards and IIx samples on 8" disks. Can anyone who has
anything that they can share with the rest of the forum please bring
it along.The Last Saturday in June (if everyone agrees)is the date
and the venue does not have to be in the middle of London but it has
to be London for people flying. It has to have internet access to
link up to Greg and the USA/CANADA members.I'm flying to London
within the next 2 weeks to finalize the venue. I had a choice of 3
venues and these at the time was around Islington. I'm staying with
a friend in the Bedford area the night before so if that area is ok
I can get somewhere around there. Tell me what you all think.I need
to work fast.
I NEED THE NUMBERS ASAP ASAP ASAP SO I CAN BOOK SOMEWHERE. CLOSING
DATE TO GET YOUR NAME DOWN IS THE END OF MAY. I WANT TO MAKE THE DAY
SPECIAL SO PLEASE ALL ATTEND. I ALSO NEED ANOTHER SERIES III AND IIX
OR II FOR THE DAY SO IF SOMEONE CLOSE TO LONDON CAN MAN THEIRS TO
OVER SEE THE TRADING THAT WOULDALSO BE GREAT. I WANT EVERYONE TO AIR
THEIR VIEWS.
ONCE AGAIN THANKS TO ALL
BEST AND KIND REGARDS
COLIN
