Summer Barbecue on Bruntsfield Links (Edinburgh) Apr 30, 2013

I know it's only May, but it's never too early to sign up for this highlight of the Edinburgh translators' calendar!

Summer Barbecue on Bruntsfield Links (Edinburgh) May 1, 2013

Yes, never too early Jules!

This is our 3rd summer BBQ. Last year 22 translators attended, and the year before there were 16 (those are the "official" numbers anyway), so hopefully this year will be a bumper one with lots of new and old faces.

Looking forward to it!

Becky.

I'd love to come to Edinburgh May 23, 2013

Hi. In a tongue in cheek sort of way, would you kindly accept participants from south of the border? I want to attend a powpow this summer and Edinburgh is the nearest to me. Would I need to organise some overnight accommodation?

All welcome, Gül! Jun 24, 2013

Hi Gül,

Of course you are welcome! It would be great to meet you.

I'd imagine that if you're coming from England you may wish to arrange some accommodation in Edinburgh, but I suppose it depends how far south you live. If you look for B&Bs in the Marchmont/Meadows/Bruntsfield area, that would be the closest to where the BBQ is being held, and not too far from the train station to get back home the next day. But Edinburgh isn't a huge place, and you may wish to stay closer ... See more

But Edinburgh isn't a huge place, and you may wish to stay closer to the city centre for a bit of sightseeing.

Cheers,
