You can count on us being among the throng.  We may even have some extra personage accompanying us.  We've been holding up our purchases for this upcoming weekend so that we will earn a few tickets for our friends.

Hi Lance!

I presume you're speaking of closing weekend when the M'Cracks invade CRF?

If so - you can count on Me, m' Lovely Lady Mikayla of Phoenica, and her Delightful Sis - Lady Dracolich!

I believe I owe you a beer or three Sir - granted, according to rules o' th' realm - I'd have t' get 'em t' ya one at a tyme...  ;)

I'll most certainly be there myself, shooting just for fun (yet again)

Will have to keep an eye out for you. Maybe my (impending) photo thread will include a rare blackfox that's wandered too far south :D

I'll be there Saturday with M'Lord and our adventuring party (we've all been gaming together for about 12 years  ;))

Can't wait....and making daily offering for beautiful weather.  This will be the first time in 3 years my husband and I have had a faire day together and I look forward to introducing him to new friends!  :D

Except for the latest M'Crack list, the CRF Weekend Roll Call thread has a good list of attendees on its first page. Keep in mind that some of the M'Cracks will be duplicated by their R/F names.
Title: Re: Invasion Weekend
Post by: Peddlin on November 06, 2008, 07:59:14 AM
At last count, there were 78 confirmed M'Cracks!  ;D ;D ;D

Then we'll just have to keep you so busy keeping mugs filled that you don't have time to be nervous!     :D

Why be nervous?? Just hope you can sing really well ::)

I can sing but don't usually do solos. I will have to make sure that I have my song book.

The count is up to 81!    :o
Title: Re: Invasion Weekend
Post by: Hibernian on November 09, 2008, 04:19:37 PM
I believe the majority of the 81 are M'Cracks and does not include the full measure of non-M'Cracks from R/F.

Master James better bring the wide angle lens for his camera.
Title: Re: Invasion Weekend
Post by: Peddlin on November 10, 2008, 09:22:10 AM
Actually, it was 81 M'Cracks, not including R/Fers. Of course, I'm afraid we have lost a couple, since then, but I still think we will have representation that we can be proud of. Of course, that part of the country may never be the same.    :o :o :o

Well, I'm not of your Clan, but I'll be there on Saturday. Hoping to meet some new friends!!  ;D

*I'll be without the wings, so you might not recognize me.  :(

Hope everyone has WAY TOO MUCH FUN!!

Check around the Margarita Pub. You will find us.

And btw, we gained a couple of more, so we are still hanging in there.

Wooohooo!!  My math tutor is from NC, so she's going to ride w/ me and share gas expenses to NC and back!!  She probably won't come to faire (she's staying w/ her friends) but that's ok.  My gas cost is cut in half!!!!  -doing happy dance-  Hehe... I'm excited...  Can't wait to see everyone!

We will miss you, and we will drink a toast to your father. Know that you will be there in our hearts, but we all know that family comes first. Take care. We love you.    :-*  :-*

Woo hoo! short sleeve weather  ;D  Well, by afternoon at least, think I'll be bringing a jacket to the 0830 tailgate :)

I for one will very much appreciate if it rains a bit more today and Friday...the CRF site is a dust bowl when it's dry. Me camera and clothes (and probably lungs, hah) come back coated with tan film.

When i said "rain a bit more" this is NOT what I had in mind :(  Does everyone still show up even when it's raining rats and frogs?
Title: Re: Invasion Weekend

I'll definitely be there! It's what umbrellas and boots were made for, I reckon'. If it gets too bad, we'll call in ole Noah an' the ark. Hopefully he's added a few Evinrudes to the back of it!
Title: Re: Invasion Weekend
Post by: Hibernian on November 14, 2008, 12:35:04 PM
The kilt may be covered up by my duster due to the rain but the truck and the champagne will be there Saturday morning! Fewer people just means more for the rest of us.

Post by: Malkavian on November 14, 2008, 06:27:52 PM
After speaking with my mother this evening it appears her intention all along was to come to my apartment and ride with me to the faire (and she has no desire to drive 90 minutes early saturday morning in the rain)  --therefore I will see you all around at some point during the day but probably closer to lunchtime.

If there's an early morning gathering Sunday I could probably make that!
Title: Re: Invasion Weekend
Post by: Hibernian on November 17, 2008, 07:11:44 AM
On behalf of the Carolina families of the Clan M'Crack I thank all of the friends and cousins who joined us in Fairhaven this weekend. The spirit of friendship and the warmth of the gathering was such that the chilly winds do not stand a chance.

To those who missed it, lets just say the Royal Court at Fairhaven, especially the Prince, will never be the same. The wooden timbers of the Galway Hooker will forever resound with the sound of cheering to "To The Clan M'Crack!"

Congrats to all the new members, and to the new pets all I will say is "may your year go swiftly." Now who has "John?" Forget your paperwork and you'll find out.

To Fairhaven's cast, you made the weekend special, but next time you may want to bring more than four pikeman when you are explaining the laws of the shire to the M'Cracks.

It was a great season completed by one of the best invasions ever. I and my family and all the M'Cracks of the Carolinas look forward to meeting you all again next year at M'Crack Corner in our village of Fairhaven.
