I just attended on the Saturday when at least 80 people were present. This is the Second Grassroots Gathering of 2008 following the long break after the Gathering in Rossport in 2005.

After the meetings on Saturday there was a meal and then a excellent cabaret and then an afters party that ended around 5am. Audio recording of one of the meetings and part of the cabaret to follow.
