As marco observed...we are now sold out. No more tickets available. Please don't turn up expecting to get in at the gate, we've got very fierce security guards this year. I've even given the registration people a photo of Simon Chiles, in case some clever impostor, thinking Simon might be hay-making, pretends to be him to get his ticket. Security is that tight.

Without sounding patronising, well done. How many will be attending? If anyone wants to offer me a large sum of money i may part with my ticket! Will there be touts at the gate?

Thanks. Always happy to be patronised! There's 1800 attending. That is the figure we worked out as being the maximum we can cope with, without too much pushing to get into the more popular talks etc As it is, we're planning on screening Allan Savory live in the Seminar barn, whilst he's talking in the Conference shed.

I figured it might be standing room only. Will have to get in early to get a seat.

I doubt anyone could impersonate being that grumpy for too long. They’d also soon regret it, it’d be like 750 mastermind and they wouldn’t get time to see all the interesting talks you’ve arranged.

I’m pleased that the weather looks good for your special event, I just hope you get some time to actually enjoy it.
