Lost Property and Multi-tasking

Aside from looking after Na'Quis this morning, including checking emails as she napped on me (she wouldn't let herslf be put in the cot, and after the weekend away is a bit clingy) I have called St Aidan's and let them know about our forgotten night-light (shades of Oxonmoot), and had them confirm they have it, I have also found out about other lost property and emailed aorund about it, plus on returning yesterday it seems the connecting pipe to our loo cistern was leaking! I have now packed the joint with jointing compound - despite Na'Quis' attempts to investigate what I was doing!

Now for our lunches.

Tolkien Society AGM - Durham part 1

Rumours of the Amon Hen editor having two puddings on Friday night are true.

Rumours of the ex-TST (aka Blueshed on LJ) manager failing to eat all his sticky-toffee pudding at the AGM dinner are true (!!)

Rumours of my having two puddings (sticky-toffee pudding & chocolate torte) at the AGM dinner are false.

Honest ... Na'Lon had eaten half her chocolate torte before I got to finish it off for her. Sadly I couldn't relieve Blueshed of his as I had to go back to wrangling Na'Quis as the speaker began a rather good talk that made several of us (friends of Pennypaperbrain) smile for reason he was not aware of!

St Aidan's College, whilst further from the city than initially expected, had great views towards the Cathedral and the staff were very very welcoming - the catering was great!

(For Pennypaperbrain's benefit he was talking about Tolkien & Rupert, magioc, myth/legend and landscape)

So I go away for a few days 'oop north at the Tolkien Society AGM in Durham (nice city, I reckon I could live there it has its own charm despite teeming with people & tourists).
And ... (well this is obviously going somewhere ;) )


On returning I am now a Trustee by election and, on settling down to check email and see what's happened whilst I've been away, I find I no longer just have OpenID (Freud must love that) access to my LJ friends who are on Dreamwidth too, but I now also have an account - thanks Denise!
