I'll probably be going to the Oxonmoot in September, it being a day longer this year. Is anyone else thinking of going?
Yes, I'm thinking of popping down to the moot. Will have to think of a show stopping costume, though.

That's true, Hookbill. As someone who was there, your Saruman Manero, sorry Saruman of Many Colours, will be hard to beat!

It's not easy for me to get away from home now, but I do have hopes of being able to come to Oxonmoot in September! I'd love to see all of the regulars again, and it would be marvelous if other Downers could join us for the first time.
As for costume, I will certainly think of something - it may not be a funny parody though. After a few years of being silly I find myself wanting just a pretty dress!

I'm hoping to attend, but no guarantees yet. Have an idea for a costume but nothing super.

I haven't booked Oxonmoot yet but I've booked the flights, so count on me and m'lady Kath being there!

1420! Good news
Nice to hear, Aganzir and Kath, that you'll be along!

It'd be great to see you there, Bęthberry, if you can come.

I know what you mean, Esty, about getting tired of being silly! For some years, I sent people funny Christmas cards, but then got tired of keeping it up...

If any Downers are interested in coming to Oxonmoot for the first time, they'll be guaranteed a warm welcome from us 'older folk'!

The Downers are the most fun group at Oxonmoot and if no other BD members come for the first time, we simply adopt other guests and recruit them for the site!
