Oxford!

[raven]

After some not inconsiderable pressure from certain people, I can hereby declare that I'll be in Oxford tomorrow, for the purpose of foulds's birthday celebrations. I really want to see as many people as possible - chiasmata and narahttbbs, I'm looking at you. I'll arrive round about two-ish, trains allowing. I'm only around for a day - got to get back up on Saturday for various boring reasons, but I'm really looking forward to seeing everyone.

In other news, dear book-buying public: telling me that it's a book about "funny things" is NOT ENOUGH INFORMATION. And neither is "that one about the fish".

But I found them both anyway, because I am just great like that. Okay, in the second case I happened to be actually holding the book in question, but still. It made me look like I had ESP, which is always good.

Anyway! In Oxford tomorrow, hope to see lots of you there.

Gah, just realised I forgot to answer your email - I do apologise.

It will be very nice to see you tomorrow!

(The reason being that after sending my email I got uncertain and started thinking there were still quite a few left with only one claimant, and was generally in a quandary, but I still should have actually kept in touch about this but am just generally in Freak Out Mode for totally other reasons, but I am very sorry.)

No worries. We can discuss it in person! And in the meantime, it can take care of itself - there still are quite a few prompts, and we're getting closer to the point where people aren't going to sign up because it's short notice.

Also, I should kinda think of possibly claiming my own prompt, huh? *g*

Hello! When/where do you want to meet? Do you have my (landline) phone number?

(I still owe you an email; this will be a good way of getting out of writing it...)

Have emailed you! :)

Yaaaaaaay! Ooh, that'll be lovely! I doubt very much whether I'll be at work tomorrow afternoon - I have work to do in the morning, but should be done by 2ish - and so whatever suits you best in terms of the others you want to see. Eeee!

Eeee! I'll give you a ring - right now five o'clock somewhere in town looks a good bet for me. Would that be okay?

[chiasmata]

Yaaaay! That sounds good to me. Looking forward to it!

I am not in Oxford, BUT: And neither is "that one about the fish".

Salmon Fishing In The Yemen? (Richard and Judy's Book Club. I have theories that they now single-handedly control the entire book industry.)

[loneraven.livejournal.com]

Yep. *g* I read it myself, and it's wonderful.

Very quick internet cafe note: greetings from Edinburgh. Meant to send a postcard but have no time. May text next week. Miss you.
