Considering we were told if Moto Arena wasnt available dont worry as the new venue is only 10 mins away still book accomodation etc so this wasnt true either?? Swings and roundabouts isnt it?
How much time should Nicolas give folk anyway?? People have obviously waited to see how popular Area51 and then made there decision to cancel??
As for the other thread about whos lost money... UNBELIEVABLE springs to mind!

Same here on the room, useless regardless. Especially as we were told it would be in the Northants area so we took that word and booked.
How much time should he give ? Good question, I would say as the venue has moved outside of what is a reasonable travelling distance from the hotels booked on a non refundable basis then there should not be a close date.
The fact remains that we booked in good faith to attend an event in that area, some may be able to afford to disregard the hotel and additional travelling cost but I for one cannot.
The area51 event i believe has spawned by the fact that petit cannot for whatever reason hold the event as promised in the original area and therefore many such as yourself are stuck with hotels that are now 25 miles from a venue or 150 miles from a venue and have to make a choice.
It definitely is swings and roundabouts but again I will not just lose money for something that has changed by no fault of my own.
As for the other thread, agree bit early to start ranting about who has lost what and as I replied Im sure Nicolas has plenty of people queuing to get into his great events and will gladly sort us out, I'm sure it's just a matter of time.
Not directed at you, just My two pence worth anyway, hoping Petit 2013 isn't too far away
