Tolkien Events 2013 - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Aganzir and I would like to say a big "Hello!" (or as Agan put it, bellow) from Oxonmoot! We have participated in the dinner and enjoyed thinking of Numenor (you know, the thing that involves standing up and looking towards the west) and also remembering the Professor. We have taken part in the Tolkien Pub Quiz, coming a respectable middle-ish according to the scorers! We have also discovered that they sell wine in VERY big glasses. Aganzir has the giggles over everything I mistype and I nearly fell over some other poor attendee on the way up the stairs. It's all going excellently!

We miss you Bethberry and Esty! Come soon.

(Addendum to the wine comment: I just asked Agan if any of this didn't make sense. She said yes. I said what? She burst out laughing saying no, no I mean no! As I said, all going perfectly according to plan ...)

Oh yes, and in honour of the occasion, we have just watched Where There's A Whip There's A Way because we persuaded our pub quiz team to take that name! Including Poison Ivy!

Good thing Poison Ivy is there - the Golden Girls need at least one representative!

We wants pictures, we does, many incriminating pictures. And are you in the Isis Guest House?

I know Pervinca and PI have met up and Bethberry I know that PI' costume is due feture something you might recognise.

Yes, I have been waiting an entire year for the rest of the (Tolkien) (Downer) world to know what you and I have known. It sounds absolutely splendid and I'm quite disappointed that I didn't come up with the idea.

And wonderful that PI has met up with Pervinca. I had no idea Pervinca was attending. Still a good number of Downers representing us.

Oh inhope she doesn't mind me saying. But she is running her Password clue via text message... so already public domain.
