Day 1 @ i33 - Setup
Posted 21-03-2008 at 10:05 AM by EAUK_Baker011
When we turned up we were left slightly speachless at the sight of our stand. To say it was large would be an understatement. We had only seen mock up images of it before today so it was amazing to see it and be able to touch it!
We spent all of Thursday just setting up the stand, handing out leaflets, testing that things are still working. Things went pretty smoothly to be honest with only a couple minor problems.
We also spent some time catching up with the Multiplay staff and fellow exhibitors. There is an incredibly friendly atmosphere here between all the exhibitors.
I also had to check in to the hotel, which tunred into an adventure in itself. I am now on my third hotel room within the space of an hour! The first one was built for incredibly small people and being a tall guy it clearly wasnt going to be a good fit! So off I went to reception to ask for a slightly more fitting room which they were only too happy to help with.
Upon moving out of this room I then get chased down by the receptionist to be told they had made a mistake with my new room and had to give me yet another one. Oh well, the current one is nice and we are holding a sweep on how long until I have to move to another one!
The hotel is completely empty too, it feels like we are the only guests in it. Not quite the busy and energetic atmosphere I like in hotels. But hey, not like we will be spending much time in it!
Not much else to report really, today was just setting up and making sure we had everything we needed. The real fun begins on Friday when we open the stand to the public!
