Guidance on COVID-19 Safety In the interests of our attendees’ health and that of our friends, hotel staff and others, we strongly advise adherence to COVID-safe behaviour. This includes being vaccinated, hand hygiene, and mask wearing when appropriate. Guidance is now on our Discord channel and in the at-con publications. Our advice to our members parallels that given to Novacon 50 members; many thanks to the Novacon committee. Virtual Corflu Like many events in fandom and in the wider world in the wake of the pandemic, we are going hybrid and encouraging participation via Discord and Zoom. Before coming online, if you are not already a member of Corflu Concorde you will need to register as a Virtual Member. This is free, though a donation is welcome. You can register via this Discord link: https://discord.gg/rcQmjNdUCH, and once you are approved you will get Virtual Member status and be given access to the Zoom link. There are events Friday evening 5th November, Saturday daytime (start 10.30 am UK time) and evening, and Sunday lunchtime (the traditional Banquet and presentations). Events are moderated and politeness is of course the norm at Corflu events. |
The venue is the Mercure Holland Hotel, Redcliffe Hill, Bristol BS1 6SQ, UK. Room booking is now available. The Corflu 38 rate is £100 per room per night single occupancy, £110 per night double occupancy, both including Bed & Breakfast. As is standard in the UK, the room rates includes all taxes. The booking form is available *here* for download as a fillable PDF form. Don't forget that to book a room you do need to be a convention member. The form asks for credit card details, but the hotel's system automatically password-protects this type of fillable PDF, so your information is secure. Note that if you need to cancel a booking, it must be done at least seven days before the arrival date. |

Membership Rates
Attending membership is inclusive of the Sunday lunch banquet. The cost of converting a Supporting membership to Attending is the difference between the amount paid for Supporting and the current Attending membership price at the time of conversion. Membership Payments PayPal may be used for memberships from any country, but if your account is in a currency other than British pounds or US dollars, please enter the payment amount in pounds and let PayPal make the conversion to your home currency. Important: On the final PayPal screen, please choose “Sending to a friend” instead of “Paying for an item or service” to ensure that Corflu receives the full amount of your payment. UK cheques should be made payable to Rob Jackson and sent to him at: Corflu 38, c/o Rob Jackson, Chinthay, Nightingale
Lane, Hambrook, Chichester, West Sussex PO18 8UH, UK. |

| FAAn Awards for 2020 Activity:
The results of the 2021 Fanzine Activity Achievement Awards, for activity during 2020, were announced on Sunday 28 March in a ceremony hosted online on Zoom. Claire Brialey and Nic Farey (FAAn Awards Administrators) and Chair Rob Jackson opted to announce the results in the Spring rather than wait till November when Corflu Concorde will (barring further adversity) actually take place in person. Thanks to Jerry Kaufman for presenting the awards as MC; to Nic as Administrator and for preparing The Incompleat Register Results Issue, which includes a breakdown of the voting; and to the 49 fans who voted for the Awards this year. Winners: Lifetime Achievement Award: David Langford The Ceremony is publicly viewable on YouTube |
