CoRigRig

Post by Matthew Green »

I will be heading out to Chad for a short getaway later this year. If anyone else happens to be in South East Chad around the 22nd November lets get together and organise CoRigRig.

If we get more than 32 participants I will organise some pre-qualifying rounds.

PM me

I'll actually be passing throught there in 2054 - so if we could arrange it then it would be quite convenient.

Im very wary of it clashing with other events. I believe CoOnSkInCaP is starting soon, a 4-venue event taking place simultaneously in Ontario, Skelmersdale, Indiana, Canberra and Pontefract. Should be a good un.

There has already been mention of CoCoa, the venue for which would be Coalville, Leicestershire. Others that have not so far been mooted include:
  • CoLic - held in Lichfield, Staffordshire
  • CoVen - held in Ventnor, Isle of Wight
  • CoZen - for Buddhists
  • CoAches - for people with swine flu
  • CoAlmen - held in a small village in the Netherlands
  • CoGent - held at Howard Somerset's house
  • CoArse - held at Jon Gaunt's house
  • CoHere - spontaneously conducted wherever the participants happen to be at that moment
