Maybe that's why Galadriel wanted someone to refill her cup.

Permission...? You don't need permission. You don't even need approval. Lemme know, and you're in. In fact, even if you don't let me know, I tend to pick up that you're learning Quenya and add you to the list of Quenyans.

In light of the rather lacklustre response to the last poetry contest, I think we should maybe tweak the frequency. People do have lives to live, I realise. Once every six months sound good to everybody? Bad? Perfect compromise?

Six months is a little too long, I think. Maybe every three or four months?

Hey, you crazy Quenya kids, you. Let's get this going again, huh? Or else I'm switching to Klingon.

Ouch. Ouch, ouch, ouch.

Did everyone else stop, uh, take an indefinite break as well?

I intended to start but didn't, then I studied in the Christmas Holiday but I have been now having a break of some three weeks and so...

I think I need a pair so that I can keep studying...

Kath and I sorta stumbled, unfortunately, due to my exams. And then didn't start up again.

What say you Kath? Shall we force me to star up again?
