Invitation to the Barrow Birthday Party
The Barrow-Wight invites you to his barrow to celebrate the Barrow-Downs' fifth birthday!
Please come as the ghost of your real life identity - we won't see you completely, only as much or as little as you want to show us. You may describe the real life clothes you are wearing; if you wish, wear a name tag that shows part of your real name. (For safety reasons, please do not reveal your full name here!) Bring your favorite real life foods and drinks; describe the journey you made from your home (again, no full address, please); bring a present for the Wight; entertain us with your real life talent(s) of poetry, music, art, etc. - in short, imagine that this is a Barrow-Downs convention and you finally get to actually meet all of your online friends!
Location: the Wight’s Barrow, temporarily located on the Novices and Newcomers forum
Time: beginning Sunday, May 1, 2005, early in the morning
Food, drinks and entertainment to be provided by all who take part.
Five years is too short a time to post among such excellent and admirable members, but it’s a long life for an internet community! Let’s celebrate the occasion with much joy and merry-making – and with sincere gratitude to The Barrow-Wight, our esteemed founder!
