Thank you for pointing this out to me! But I don't like the prospect of eating all the meals alone ... Heck, I can't make up my mind, although time is now really getting short.

You can eat with me, I am not signed up for the meals. . . (it was quite expensive and at the time of registrating I was not sure if I was actually going)

Let's do lunch! I signed up only for the dinners on Friday and Saturday.

Oh, great!

After so much dithering I have booked my flight now, so I will definitively be at Oxonmoot!(despite flying pigs...

)
I'm looking forward to seeing you.

Bethberry, are you doing any sightseeing in Oxford on Sunday? If yes, I might perhaps join you, since I will not immediately leave, but go by train to see my cousin near Worcester, either Sunday evening or Monday morning.

Nice! It looks like everything is working out just fine, now we just need certain people to change their minds and join us and it will be perfect.

Bêthberry · 09-15-2009, 08:06 PM

I plan to, Guinevere. I have a long list of things to see from a friend who frequently visits Oxford. Let's talk more when we meet.

Estelyn Telcontar · 09-18-2009, 04:05 AM

It's great that Guinevere decided to join us at Oxonmoot! Do we have a Fellowship of Nine together yet? The more, the merrier!

I will be in Oxford from Thursday afternoon on, so can easily join those who want to get together on Fraiday afternoon. Time and place? Some of us met at the Bird and Baby (Eagle and Child) a couple of years ago, but I'm open to other suggestions. Registration doesn't begin till 17:30, so we could meet at 15:00 or 16:00 and still have plenty of time.

Let's definitely plan to make group photos on Saturday evening, so we can document the BD meeting. Costumes optional, of course - but do bring and wear them if you have some!

The Bird and Baby is the place,
