Don't forget, folks -

for the Jubilee Music Hall on the Sunday at the Falcon, you are invited to wear Victorian costume. Bring your glad rags. Celebrate 60 years of Queen Victoria's reign.

Another jubilee? Not heard of that one!

Yay! Nearly finished packing. I'll be travelling stupidly early tomorrow morning to (with any luck!) avoid the traffic, which was already building up on the M25 at midday. Looking forward to four full days of real life: this other one's the illusion.

Totally brilliant, as always. Sadly, I am already back home, missing the survivors' session :-(

Thanks to Lucy, Kevin and all the legions of volunteers and participants. And well done to The Teacups for their well deserved Rob Bader award. Then again, the Queen Victoria Jubilee music hall was chock-full of "moments"... and the whole weekend, for that matter!

What a fabulous weekend! Got back at 6am today, beating the traffic but missing all the fun today.

Huge thanks to Lucy, Kevin, Amber and all the team who made this such an excellent weekend. The Music Hall was just marvellous, well done to Carole and Andrew for all their hard work putting it together!

Will post the MudGather list later when I get a minute....
