Oxonmoot

We are back from Oxonmoot 2014 - the 41st altogether, my 22nd in a row, and [livejournal.com profile] adaese's 36th in a row. I think the weekend went well - met lots of friends, god-children and father-in-law, bought books, attended more papers than I usually do, saw four libraries and three of Tolkien's houses, had two good dinners, saw the stunning LonCon 3 masquerade-winning costumes, and got to imitate the action of the Samaritan.

A longer write-up, and photos, may follow at some point.

I read that as "imitate the action of the Saruman," and wondered exactly what Sarumannish (Sarumanly?) thing you'd done. None of them options sounded very promising.

That sounds great fun - what came up in the papers? (I'd love to see the costumes, if that's possible.)

I beat Adaese by 2 years, my 38th in a row. I wonder if Charles or Jessica can beat that?

So glad you had what sounds like an amazing time! Those costumes were amazing.
