Edinburgh Conference Partners?

[Peter Reid]

Hi

Will there be any alternate programme for partners?  I'm interested in coming to the conference but I'd like to bring my wife along as well.  She's not a LiveCoder, just married to one of longstanding!

Despite having used LiveCode for over 15 years (dating back to MetaCard days), I've never attended a conference in person (although I have been a virtual delegate).  As my health isn't what it used to be (Parkinson's), I'd feel happier with my wife accompanying me. However, it would be nice to know there's something organised for partners to enjoy during the day whilst we're in the depths of the LC-coder's boiler-room.  Is there any chance of this?!
