IVFDF 1981

IVFDF 1981 was held at Leeds University

This was the closest that IVFDF ever came to going bust, which led to Reading staging a rescue festival in 1982. The festival was good, but the organisers had arranged for too many lunches to be served by the university buttery and they had to be paid for even though they were not eaten.

We slept in a church hall nearby along with several other teams. Sharon was particularly proud of her man-proof pajamas.
