Which assumes you know where Hook is without looking it up :)
Hampshire :)

A surprisingly large county. I looked it up - its between Basingstoke and Farnborough. If coming from Wales, down the M4, turn right at Reading.
Not as large as Yorkshire.
Incidentally, the venue is approximately 1 mile from Hook railway station.

Any idea what games are being played?
Nope. I suggested to the organisers that it might be worthwhile listing games already booked on the event website.
Indeed.
I followed the link, but found very little info of any substance.
ie No clue as to whether this is a 'show' style event, wargaming only (an expanded club night) or plus eg 'Magic the gathering' and Monopoly, or whatever...
And as it's only 15 miles from home it might hold some interest. But it's all very, very vague.
Well yes, what you see is pretty much all you get. One imagines that the flavour of the event might depend to a large extent upon who decides to put on a game.
FWIW, the organiser participated in the Mantinea Battle Day last year in Newbury.
