Dr Who fans alert!!!! The glorious Lass is holding it's next 'Pubcon' very soon. Here's the latest from Mein Host, Gareth Kavanagh:


Hello,Yes, it's that time of year again and I'm thrilled to announce we're back for our third annual pubcon at the Lass O'Gowrie.Taking place on Sunday, July 18th as part of our inaugural fringe festival in the Lass (Lassfest), our theme this year is 'six of the best'. Essentially, our assembled guests will take us on a journey through their six favourite things about their time of Doctor Who - beit a person, a character, a scene - whatever they fancy really. As it's us, you can bet we'll be using all the technology at our disposal and with our good pals at Kasterborous will be streaming and harvesting questions via twitter to boot.Ticketing and guests will be announced very soon, and we've got some fabulous treats in store to boot.
Naturally, our fine pies and ale will be available throughout the day and with only 50 tickets being made available, the relaxed atmosphere you've all come to know and love will be retained, no fear.Keep 'em peeled!
A little more info to tickle you with....
Ticketing is now set up and will be imminently available from
www.wegottickets.com (it's just in admin hell for a short time, relax).
Tickets are priced at £19.50 a head
MC is once again, the great John Cooper. Guests confirmed to date (subject to availability, fingers crossed, don't shout if someone doesn't make it) include Terrance Dicks, Andrew Cartmel, Dez Skinn and Rob Shearman.
We hope to confirm at least a further three guests in the next few weeks
