[Sca-cooks] RE "A Market Day at Birka"

[JAMES REVELLS]

Hej!
    It may become a 2 day event some time in the next 3-5 years, so it won't 
be as short of an event.  A lot of us have started arriving on Friday night 
& keeping the bar open late as well as closing down the bar on Saturday 
night.  Many of us also finish off the event at the breakfast buffet at the 
hotel Sunday morning.  It has grown a lot, last year was around 1800 people 
& we expect to grow more this year.  You might consider defraying some of 
your cost by bringing trade goods with you from Sweden.  See the web site
