The European Quiz Championships take place at the Savoy Hotel Queens Promenade, Blackpool, UK on November 9-11 2007. Details at
http://www.eqc2007.comThere is the opportunity to meet European contestants who have participated on various shows - including some formats which are making their way to our shores. There is an old joke that someone who knows 3 languages is trilingual, someone who know two languages is bilingual, and someone who knows one language is American - no worries here as everything on the main schedule is conducted in English.
It would be great to have an American "shadow" team participating at the event - thus far Paul Bailey and Ed Toutant are going + there may be a special suprise participant arriving from the USA. Airfares are reasonable for this off season time and there are lots of frequent flyer seats available, but to sign up for the ground portion you need to register by Monday October 15th... Let me know if this is even within the realm of possiblity for you by sending email to pbailey at esri dot com.
