Hi all! Alas, I couldn't make the VCF - apparently I'm supposed to spend Father's day with my family, rather than do what I'd like to do ... I think something's gone wrong there somewhere! :(

So does anyone know if it will happen again next year? Those of you that did get to go, did it feel like a success?

It definitely felt like a success over 1800 visitors over the weekend, and the National Museum of Computing said that they thought it had been a success and they would have made good funds from it as well to help them through the rest of the year.

So hopefully, it will be on again next year - I would ask for some better signposting and details of whom has been confirmed in attendance earlier on their website - the traders section was only updated 4 days before the Festival, although they had known I was going some 3-4 weeks.
