Pipe Tolkien Events 2016

While aware that I'm rather late, by half a year(!), I thought that introducing this thread might be interesting.

Obviously, one of the main Tolkien related events this year is Oxonmoot 2016, again in St. Antony's College, Oxford, this time from 8th to 11th September.

I'm planning to go. Is anyone else here going, or planning to do so?

Another four day Oxonmoot. Good job. No, alas, not this year.

White-Hand Yes, another four day one

I'm sad to hear about that, Bęthberry, but will let you know how I get on.

I was also glad to hear that the TS Committee agreed this year's moot would also be a four day one; because it means more time for activities, including getting reacquainted with old attendees, and acquainted with new ones.

I see from the paper booking form that there are 1 and 2 day registration rates. Will have to look into this, and see what I can afford.
