*Great - now I'm humming "I've been to the desert..."

Unfortunately I missed the event much to my regret, although I was aware of a civic reception in the city in January of this year by the Lord Mayor at the Central Library.

However, I did spend most of yesterday at the "Middle Earth Weekend 2009" just down the road at Sarehole Mill. It was very good and well attended, even though the weather was quite appalling for most of the day.
