Countdown to Sherwood Forest Faire 2012

[*Teach*]

I can't believe it is finally almost here. I need this break (like most people I am sure).
Tomorrow night I shall arrive, do some minor setting up thanks to being able to put up my tent in advance, and the drinking shall begin.

*wonder if I should try this new rum thing I keep hearing about*

[Ronald the Bald]

Is new rum better than old rum? How come we never hear about 15 year old rum? Does it not improve with age? Or is it that you drink it all before it has a chance?

[Merlin the Elder]

I think Teach has an IV from the distillery... No chance of rum reaching puberty around him.

[Lady Gryphon]

Dog is at the kennel, Car is packed, We'll be leaving here in an hour or two.  Going to do the trip in two parts, makes it easier on the driver that way.

See you Saturday morning, except you Merlin we'll catch up with you Friday night at the hotel.

Drive safe everyone.

*Old rum does exist. Though not for long around me*

Almost there!!!!

[Merlin the Elder]

This is as bizarre as it gets...two nights this week I had great difficulty with sleep. My mind was on overload about faire. I actually have butterflies, I think. I must need this getaway a lot worse than I realized!

2636 Minutes....

[Magpie Flynn]

I've been the same, Merlin. Last few days I've been feeling like I'm about to jump out of my skin.

[mpullen]

Heading up in the morning. Much to do. As we say in the Navy: "Things to do and people to do them to".

Will try to stop by the tailgate on Saturday AM as I have to check the campers in the main parking lot.

Otherwise, please say hello if you catch me circulating in the Faire area. I have no fixed schedule, as I am subject to go where the radio calls. I try to hover around the Seven Sisters, glaring at those who put cigarette butts on the grounds or leave trash. I should be at the Seven Sisters during the Fairy Tea Party, as the Chaos clan act as protectors of the Fairies, as they are the source of our BBQ Fairy Wings we relish (plus we have had some drunken idiots harass the faie folks). Will be at the full contact jousting in the afternoon, plus trying to be at as many Circa Paleo performances as possible.

If you are camping, wave at the old Phart in the golf utility cart as I pass through.

Signing off for the weekend. I may be able to receive emails at the two hotspots in Faire, but may be too busy to check. This is my soul battery recharging season. I work my weed puller off, but feel so good at the end of every weekend.

Peace and love. If not applicable, floggings called for.

[PollyPoPo]

MikeP, looking at the entertainment schedule, there is a Fairy Pic-Nick scheduled at 3:00 at the Chess Board.  The Seven Sisters tea party is not on the new schedule. 

Might want to make sure because fairy wings are tasty, err, most delicate and pretty.

[Merlin the Elder]

Leaving right now for Bastrop!  See you soon!

[maeven]

Safe travels, Merlin! See you Saturday!

[Alerrick Afon Adou]

Only a wake up away. Then My carriage heads out to the gates of Sherwood............Huzzah

[Magpie Flynn]

The excitement builds! I'll be heading out around 5pm today (ah! so late!) which means I'll get into Bastrop around 9pm. I wish I could leave sooner, alas, I still have classes today

[Zardoz]

rolling out in a couple of hours   see everyone at the Tailgate and/or M&G !
