The excitement is killing me and I am not even attending.

Why not, it is just up the road from you.

Family commitments. Having a 7 year old son, 3 year old daughter and a poorly mother is not conducive to attending bake off's. All my spare time needs to be directed towards faffing about with speakers and the rest of my hifi. Maybe when I have finished my DIY journey I may have more time. Nearly went to Owston this year (only half an hour away) until I heard you were not going. Saying that the Uddersfeeled bake off's aren't that far from me either.

You would be among a bunch of friendly enthusiasts there.
I'm sure your DIY speakers would be well received.

Maybe one day. According to the doc they look like bits of tree surgery
Aesthetically they do look rough (and they are) because what is the point with prototypes. They do sound killer though (IMO).
Do you attend Owston ?

I like rough, it is all the fashion now - shabby chic speakers
Things like working rusty cars are a fashion statement in the US.

That is a very kind offer Paul. I am very grateful, but sadly I can't make it.
