Besides, I'm not sure about taking a seven-hour coach journey each way

It is interesting to see various people's perspectives of Autscape. Some fly to Autscape all the way from New Zealand, while others aren't comfortable with journeying from the north of England.
(I'm not being critical. Everyone should do what fits them best. I'm merely noting the various perspectives).

To be honest, I'd prefer to go to a day school, as it doesn't involve a residential aspect.

The nicest hours at Autscape are the evening hours, when everyone tends to relax and chatter.
One guy even claims he only goes to Autscape in order to drink beer in the evenings.

If not -
Is it because of financial reasons? Is it because of geographical reasons? Yes and yes
Is it because of other reasons? if so - what other reasons? I don't feel comfortable around other people...even other autistic people and I probably wouldn't be allowed to bring my bearded dragon with me. She helps me cope around other people. I wouldn't be able to enage in special intrests and would get upset as a result.

And it just feels like a very long way to go for three days, ( to Bath from the south of France ). I'm less and less into travelling.

Less and less into travelling... even to Morocco?
(last year, you wanted to organise a WrongPlanet excursion to Morocco...)

If your bearded dragon is a pet, you probably wouldn't be allowed to bring it.
If your bearded dragon is a service animal, you probably will be allowed to bring it.

I'm getting a bit worried about the lack of timetable/more information. Are we going to get that soon? The time is fast approaching for the conference!

Autscape 2010's timetable will be similar to previous Autscapes' timetables:
http://www.autscape.org/archive/2009/timetable
http://www.autscape.org/archive/2008/schedule
(but it will have this year's presentations and workshops, instead of previous years' presentations and workshops...)[/quote]

Do you need to know exactly which presentation happens at each time slot? (perhaps it's not finalised yet).

If you need specific information (other than the exact timing of each presentation/workshop), then I am here to answer you.
