What It Costs

Friday 31st July - Sunday 2nd August 2009
The Rose & Crown Hotel - Wisbech
http://www.roseandcrownwisbech.co.uk/

The vast majority of activities over the weekend are completely free.
The only things that costs money are accomodation, food & drink.

The costs of different accomodation is shown on the accomodation page of this
website. The only other things that cost money are as follows:-

On Site Bar & Food
Drinks are available all day and late into the
evening at our on-site bar. Snack food is also
available through the daytime for lunches and brunches etc all
at very reasonable prices. Nearby restaurants and takeaway
food stores are also within close walking distance.

Friday Night Tex-Mex / Americano Buffet
On the Friday night we tuck into an American extravaganza of
Tex-Mex Americana foods. There is an additional cost
for this if you wish to book it of £10.00 per person.
Vegetarian option is available.


Saturday Night PreHistoric Banquet
The BIG Saturday night event, which is usually the highlight
of the weekend and the event in which everybody gets involved
is the Saturday Night PreHistoric Banquet.

The premise: Three caveman tribes live in a small
area of resource-sparse land. The Secret of Fire
is hidden somewhere nearby. They'd all like it.
Each tribe suspects their rivals of already possessing
the secret. A shared meal is arranged to 'talk and eat
for help of all' (in the grand words of one leader).
It can only lead to trouble!

Fancy Dress is highly-recommended. This is a story-based
themed event in which all those taking part (usually everybody attending)
will take the part of characters from a puply prehistoric setting.
No attempt at being historically accurate or of even getting
the time zones right is required. Think 'Journey to the
Center of the Earth' and do whatever you think is funny.
There is an additional cost which includes all the food, beer and wine.
The cost is £12.00 per person.

Sunday Night Chinese Meal
Sunday Night is not technically part of the Minicon
but people often stay Sunday night as well to make it a full
'long weekend'. For those many die-hard players still around
on Sunday Night we usually go out to a local chinese restaurant
for a meal. Should you wish to come along, we just split the bill
evenly by the number of people who are going. (No bean-counting allowed.)

Nights Available
Although the Minicon's official times are Friday evening
until Sunday Afternoon, we can take bookings starting on the Thursday
night and/or including the Sunday night for those who want to make a long
weekend of it. Lots of players do this, so you'll have no shortage of
people to play games with should you decide to make your weekend
three or four nights instead of two.
