I just got back from an absolutely wonderful German Tolkien Seminar, filled to the brim with interesting talks by international speakers - including yours truly on "The Autobiographical Tolkien". We had gorgeous weather in a charming city, Jena, and the people were fascinating to meet/remeet. So many of them have said they'll be at Oxonmoot that I am seriously considering going this year; now that I know the German society members and a number of others, it would be fun to see them again - to say nothing of the Downers, of course!
