Greeting one and all. In this update:

1. All about food,
2. there will be prizes...
3. and free goodies
4. for 140 of those that register
5. and in the evening...

1. All about food
Due to the very generous nature of our sponsors this year's London Perl
Workshop will have a wonderful buffet in the evening. This should make
previous year's simple fare pale into the background as a veritable
cornucopia of delights are paraded for hungry workshoppers to feast
upon. Coupled with the almost obligatory free ales, as also supplied by
our sponsors, should see us well catered for in almost every regard.

2. there will be prizes...
Once again the wonderful chaps from Nestoria will be awarding prizes on
the day for the 'Best Of' workshop events. If you were with us last year
you will recall that these will most likely be some quality book or
other grand item. Prizes will be awarded after the lightning talks are
finished.

3. and free goodies
But fear not if you do not get a prize as there will be a raft of free
goodies at this year's event. Once again we have managed to procure fun
items for you to take home as keepsakes, though there is one small catch....

4. for 140 of those that register
The conference bags of goodies will be limited to the first 140 people
who attend and are signed up beforehand to the event. There will be a
spare few items over that number that will be free for all to take, but
the pre-made bags are restricted to signed-up people only.

5. and in the evening...
Don't forget to register on the wiki for the evening so we can judge
numbers please. Also, in order to prevent random people wandering into
the pub and taking drinks/food, we may have to evict people who do not
have an official workshop badge (not Perl people of course but Lardy
London Layabouts), so do please sign up.

And that wraps it up for this Update. The Schedule is now online and
fixed so sign up to your favourite talks. Don't forget to buy a t-shirt
soon as they take 4-6 days to deliver (business days) and I look forward
to seeing you all in London on the 3rd or the 5th.
