brightlywovenYou know it's your last chance to join the international frolicking and so....
Our man in Christ Church has booked the Bayne room for revelry from 8pm on Friday night - it's booked under the Taruith name. Here we can have some revelry before braving the bookshops. In a more ambitious time I had imagined games, snacks (themed, of course) and general merriment. The tragic reality is that I will be working right up until 8pm, and am due back in the salt mines at 8 the next morning. So I can't promise carefully planned merriment, but I'm pretty sure any ideas would be cheerfully entered into! (All those on holidays might have time to come up with some!)
Thanks to those who have indicated an intention to be there. Since it's out of term and many people are away, and since chief lembas maiden Tora and I will be making some snacks, it would be great to have a vague idea of numbers, but don't feel bound to commit, or unable to come without rsvp. (And if anyone wants to turn their hand to making cockroach clusters or fizzing whizbees, knock yourselves out!).
Oh, and if anyone has a cunning idea about how you mull mead without a stove or microwave, would love to hear it!
In summary - friday night, 8pm, Bayne Room till about 10, then onwards to the Book shops of Broad St.

Date: 2007-07-17 12:04 pm (UTC)If anyone is driving in (and yes, I know this is Oxford we're talking about!), you can get drinks heaters that plug into the cigarette lighter / 12v power socket. Or you can get mini camping stoves that will heat liquid using just a candle or a bit of dry fuel. But these two methods, while they should work, will only do one cup at a time ...
Anyway, I hope you all have fun.
I've just had a nasty thought. My Amazon copy will be delivered to me at home. But we'll be stopping Friday night at MastermindChampion's house ...
