Okay, so far that's:

Degas/Léođern
Eodwine/Rowenna
Kara/Erbrand
Garstan/Stigend
Garmund/Cnebba
Saeryn/Ginna
Javan/Wilcred

This is shaping up into an interesting race (fun and funny too).

Noggie, is Garmund the leader between he and Cnebba, being older?

Are we still planning on having lunch right now, or are we going ahead with the race?

Will lunch be a big scene - a sort of banquet?

-except it would make more sense to have a big celebratory meal after everybody's done running around.

Or will lunch be a sort of a 'and then we ate' and then moving on?

The latter.

To Noggie: it's a rare thing when there isn't a leader and a follower even between only 2 people.

Is this thread going to die when I'm not here anymore? I should hope not, but indications are....

Kath and I have been working on a joint post together. We should be getting it up within the next day or so.

No... I think at least I will feel more of an obligation to post... but now it runs so smoothly without me that if I'm busy I can get away with not posting...

I've been wanting to simply take a quiet lead, except I know I'm not sticking around. For that reason, I don't want to become needed in any way.

OK, thank you. I was a bit confused with all the talk about the race, it sounded as if we were doing that next.

I would imagine that the banquet would be saved for the evening if there was to be any. I would imagine that lunch would be a kind of time- out scenerio, to relax more than to eat. Besides all that food wouldn't go too well if there was to be a race right after lunch.

I dreamt that I thought I should write something here... Conscience knocking? I think I will write something this week now that I'm finally less busy. Everybody else seems to have been rather sleepy too of late, though...

Does one have leaders in three-legged races?

Well if there is to be a leader then Garmund it is. Also Stigend would insist Garstan is the leader in their pair as he is both older and lived longer in the MH. Garstan would naturally argue back that Stigend should be the leader as he has been left with the responsibility of all the buildingwork while Eodwine is away... But finally S has two points and G only one...

Woah. I didn't realize that in encouraging you I was creating an easier way out for Elempi. Not that I've really been devising to keep him here longer.

No fear, though, Fea. Just as soon as I have time, I assure you, I'll write something.
