Fringe timescales
As AK mentioned, we're at the same point now as when we started the Fringe last time. This year however, although not much has actually been done yet, everything is in place. We've got the message out to a lot of people already and started a lot of balls rolling. I think once you get down to it you need that little edge of pressure to really kickstart everyone. We've been lulled a little bit into a sense of security by starting so early and having ages to plan. I don't know about anyone else but I'm really starting to feel the sense of urgency that we had from the beginning last year.
Now is the time when we really need to start doing stuff, not talking about it. Not that I'm a shining example, I've missed the last few meetings and have done very little actual work so far.
It's definitely not too late to get involved if you want to. http://www.readingfringefestival.com for details. Next meeting is at the Outlook pub in Reading on Wednesday 10th May at 7pm. That is, inconveniently, my brother's birthday, so hopefully I can make that one.
