[Wamvan] A film outing! VIFF?

[Natalie Hill]

Yes Sue, I think we will all buy our own individual tickets and meet up.

The festival begins in one week, on Sept 26. I suppose if we decide this
weekend that would be sufficient time? That is, of course, if the film(s)
we want to see aren't already sold out..... (let's hope not!).
