Ferocious Mingle Verified!

Hi all,

I have some great news! We are provisionally booked with Ferocious Mingle for the 14th of December. Rainey and Eamon, the gracious owner/operators, have said they'd love to have us back this year, a real testament to students past. The Ferocious Mingle Marcade is now in the process of setting up shop, with a grand opening party scheduled for the 23rd of November. The new store front at 60 Camden Street (next to Daintree) is lovely:

Added bonuses for us: it's indoors, and they serve really good coffee and sweets at reasonable rates.

To secure our place, we will need to pay up front, which we should do asap. The rate for a day is e35, so if everyone is willing to pitch in e5, I can pay for and secure our place at the market. I suggest that the class rep collect money from everyone, and either give it to me, or leave it in Marita's office for me to collect.

If you haven't yet been to the market, pop in to help you prepare. Make a few notes about the space, and what you think you will need on the day. We'll go over everything in class. Look at what the other vendors are selling, what their pricing is like, and how they're set up. Take a few photos (with permission).

I hope you are all as excited as I am about this opportunity for your class - both to raise funds, and as practical experience in selling your designs. With proper planning, the day should be very enjoyable. I will, of course, be there to help and guide you all (and maybe help hawk your wares).....

I trust you are all enjoying the design process, and I'm really looking forward to seeing your progress when we return on the 4th. Remember to bring your Design Boards and Prototype to class on Monday. Enjoy the rest of the Mid Term, and I'll see you all soon.

For a bit of history and to get the flavour of the Marcade:
