Coaches will be cheaper and run 24/7

and probabaly also cheaper from London to Oxford. They will take longer especially at rush hour though.

I am planning on going at least for the lectures and I probably will stay Saturday night though if it is only Saturday I may make my own arrangements for accomodation.

Shall we persuade Dave to do one so I don't get caught in one that turned out to discuss the significance of the a bit of the film I missed because it during my dash to the loo about 2.5 hrs + trailers and a cinema small (ie bucket sized ) drink in. Even the consolation of Murray Smith getting impassioned and sounding just like Feargal Keane wasn't quite enough to help.

And since they have 20 minute slots... well I'd love to expound my theories about Blondes having more fun in ME but I am not sure I could cope with Murray Smith getting impassioned and Feargal Keanlike as he tore my paper apart .....

Actually the Cambridge Seminar sounds interesting ..and I have never been to the Other Place....

I always go to Oxonmoot, we should all try and get together for one Barrowdowns picture at least.

Mithalwen · 04-13-2007, 02:01 PM

Only if I take it. I never have my photograph taken ..it adds at least a stone in weight but would take my soul away. That's a double whammy and so just plain unfair....

I vote for letting some random non-downer take it. . .It would be a fun photo especially since we would need to constraint Mith

Mithalwen · 04-13-2007, 02:06 PM

Have a go if you think you're hard enough....

Hey Mithalwen just wear some dark shades (not anything like a Ringwraith), keep your eyes closed and you won't know you've had your photo taken, and what's more you won't see it.

.Until it's too late
