Portfolio Night 7. To be or not to be?

Anyone who's anyone on the junior circuit will be well aware of the forth coming Portfolio night 7 - scheduled for June 11th this year. 

In 2008 JWT hosted the London leg , and it was a real success. Everyone got placements, as well as a free mug and T-shirt*, and all was right with the World.

So this year i've been keeping an eye on their website, www.portfolionight.com,  to find out when the tickets will be available, only to find out that London (as well as many other cities around the World) has yet to find a host for the event.

Which seems strange. The teams that turn out are usually pretty clued up, the CDs** that give the crits usually find some potentially good new blood, and it's another night for everyone involved to get nicely sauced.

If nobody steps forward soon, PN7 ain't gonna happen in London - which will be a real shame. And another kick in the goolies for the juniors out there...
 

*Not strictly true, the tickets were £15 or something.
** Except Mr Fink, who i saw make someone cry last year. Oh snap.
