Oh, I've got lots of 'em, ClaireBear -- including you, both singing your wonderful original song and making a fool of yourself with the rest of us hams in the mummers' play! Let me know if it's OK to share them. (You too, sweet Severn!)

And thanks to Bearded Bruce for bringing extra instruments to lend (though I didn't need to use his this time) and all that wonderful ginger to sell.

I'm delighted to know that the auction brought in lots of $.   Getaway-ers are so generous that my pre-owned capo, which sells retail for about $24, brought in $22, and several pre-listened-to CDs brought in about $3 apiece.   I brought my small washboard (as opposed to the pocket sized one) to sell but couldn't bring myself to part with it. Sorry. (Next year I'll bring a bigger one.) I got a great deal on Severn's 4-CD Patsy Cline set (still shrink wrapped) and someone's little step-on-lid-raising wastebasket too. Not to mention buying enough of Bruce's ginger to maybe get me qualified for The Biggest Loser if I don't ration my supply strictly.

"Froggy Went A-Courtin'" is processed and ready for viewing as soon as I get permission from Charmion (CeltAddict?) and Edmund. Terry's already given me a blanket (permission, that is).
