Tim, I was so hoping you'd be there. Maybe next year?

Yes, it was great to see Alex suitably honoured - and it was also great to meet him at last and spend some time with him. Alex, I hope you enjoyed the dancing evening, as I didn't get to see you the next morning to hear about it.
It was good, as ever, to re-encounter so many Spherians and to meet others for the first time - including Catherine, of course. I think I bumped into most people - except Bill, for some reason. I can at least reassure you, Bill, that sitting at the front of the auditorium for the Able Muse event I wasn't aware of any child-produced commotion at any point.
Enjoyable events by the poolside in the evening as well, including a remarkable performance by a poet who managed to keep a glass of wine upright while swimming across the pool fully dressed. A feat no free-verse could ever manage, I'm sure...

I'll be there too, beside the performing-seal poet, helping him stay afloat, making sure he doesn't spill a drop!
And Alex - if you are there, too, I will tackle you to the ground, bury you in kisses, until huge orange poppies open up all over you!

All I see in this thread are a bunch of out-of-reach grapes that I am sure must be too sour to eat anyway.

If I sell a screenplay or hold a winning ticket of any kind over the next twelve months, your conference registration and plane tickets are guaranteed to be in your pocket, David R, and together we will pick those grapes and stomp on them till our toes our indelibly purple, and wine pours from our ears.
Deal??

Cally, did you know...
Cally, did you know that Dave Mason included your powerful poem "Shot with Colour" in his Narrative seminar? The whole class really admired the piece, & Dave sang (actually, spoke) your praises mightily.
Just thought you'd want to know...

Reason: Spelling...but couldn't fix name in title. Sorry!

Not to worry, Ned. I've corrected the spelling of Cally's name!
