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.

Pervinca Took is a guest of Tom Bombadil.
Got home about half an hour ago!

What an absolute joy to meet Aganzir and Kath and have a good discussion with The Squatter Of Amon Rudh (sp?) (my last conversation with a group including the Squatter was on a roof about six years ago). The conversation of last night/this morning was also shared by Faramir Jones, whom I already knew before he became a Downer.

Poison Ivy and I had a brief conversation a few years ago which would have been longer, but she had promised to meet someone. We had a really good conversation this time - in fact more than one.

Have been attending Oxonmoots for quite some time now, so met quite a few Downers before I knew they were Downers.

Thumbs up

Oxonmoot was a much more relaxed affair than in past years. There still manged to be clashes of things we wanted to see, but it was still great and we all had a lot of fun.
I didn't think it was possible, but my Saruman of many colours costume was upstaged by Aganzir and Kath as Fili and Mr Dwalin! Next year I will wear EVEN MORE COLOURS!!
Squatter was mad as a hatter as usual. His hilarious impractical car nearly got crushed by a pair of gates, but at least he didn't think cheese was a viable currency, so I think he ended up ahead.
Pervinca Took was very friendly and to my shame I did not realise who she was until it was too late! If I knew that I knew you I would probably have been more talkative!
Poison Ivy is as enthusiastic and creative as ever! I will never look at otters the same way again!
