 ===== Consulate Space and Layout =====
-The location of the consulate, and it's layout, are coordinated with Milliways. It will eventually appear on [[https://map.events.ccc.de/camp/2023/map|the map here.]]
+The Scottish Consulate at CCCamp is [[https://map.events.ccc.de/camp/2023/map/#17.23/53.03254/13.307707/m=53.032526,13.307782|located at the marker here.]]
 The plan is to take everything on our [[ccc2023:packing_list|CCCamp23 Packing list]] to Germany via van and ferry.

 There are some costs associated with this: the ferry; insurance for the drivers; and fuel. We are still estimating this but it's somewhere around £1500. This compares favourably to the cost of [[https://tickets.events.ccc.de/camp2023-villages/|renting a tent from CCC]]. Scottish Consulate attendees are encouraged to contribute towards the cost of our collective infrastructure, details on Signal and email.
+===== Report =====
+We had a great time in Mildenberg after four years and a pandemic. The CCC team did a lot of hard work preparing and decorating the site. The art and lighting were banging, especially at night.
+The consulate was set up as a sub-village in the Milliways cluster. A big thankyou to Hibby, Allie and Eth for schlupping our junk from Scotland to Germany in Midder's van
+It was hot, especially so for those accustomed to Scottish summers. Occasionally it rained, which helped to enliven the heat with some humidity. Afternoons were mostly for sitting still and chatting, evenings were quite pleasant.
+Whiskeyleaks was a roaring success, raising a decent chunk of donations for Milliways. The Consulate supplied an MC, a DJ, and some bar staff. A brief pause in the tunes from 6am to 8am was negotiated with CCC orga.
+The DJ setup was superb. The ScotCon system had enough watts that we ended up supplying tunes for the whole Milliways cluster.
+The new tent was a great HQ for the consulate, enjoyed by visitors and Consular staff. We managed to bring enough tables and chairs to keep everyone happy. Saddam's Palace had its last outing, sorry Nordin, it was wonderful while it lasted.
+The suffering of those without blackout tents was only compounded by the gloating of those who own such magnificent contraptions. Buy [[https://www.decathlon.co.uk/p/3-man-blackout-tent-mh100-f-b/_/R-p-313085|this £70 tent]], enjoy hacker camps more, and join our community of smug.
+Ideas to improve for next time:
+  * We still need a music box of some description, to avoid personal laptops and phones being tethered to the tunes.
+  * A kettle plus a water butt.
+  * A new dormitory/chillout/beanbag/sanctum tent to replace Saddam's Palace
+  * Perhaps a separate dedicated DJ/kitchen tent (stretch goal)
+  * A chilly box (esky)
+  * Some collapsible shelves from Costco (fast to put up and down)
