But the 5th August is our 2nd wedding anniversary... that won't go down well!
You could always come down a few days early and hang around with us lot and get back home for the 5th..... it would be great if you could make it for a day or two.

Sorry to hear about that. I hope the coming year is a better on for you. Hopefully I will make this moot aswell, God knows I've been wanting to get to one for a few years now, but I was over in Germany, and this year i had the transition to civilian life to make, so I just couldn't get the time off work to go. I will go this coming year though!

Any 'Stars' coming in 08 like Mors? If so, me and Luke will be there:)



I should have said, i know in my head and some other people know.

YES, we're flying Mors over again to spend some time with us at the Moot and a few other things. It was great having him last year and I'm really looking forward to having him next year:D

I'm hoping to come along as well, but I will have to see how the year goes before committing myself. I really really want to come though, I missed the last one, I found this site too late to organise anything :(

Were there many women last time/planning to go next year? Mrs M would like to go, but is a bit concerned about being the only woman amoungst a wood full of beardy blokes.

The thing I have found about the moot is, you don’t have to stay the whole five days, even if you only make it for a day or two, you'll learn so much more in those two days than you would on a "proper" course costing five times as much. Ok a hundred, hundred and ten miles is a long way to drive for a day, but come down Friday night and back Sunday evening.
It is an amazing thing to be hold normal people just sharing their knowledge their insight freely and without hesitation. Moreover, the more formal lessons are a real joy, even standing by and watching watch. (I’m hoping to get my bad back sorted for once and for all) my daughter is as proud of her walking stick she made with Tony’s guidance as anything she owns, even things that she has paid for with her own hard saved up money.

Many people bring their whole familes ... so yes... it has a very friendly community atmosphere with everyone welcome, so she wont be on her own.

my wife will be coming next year as will my daughter (again). There were quite a lot of ladies there last year, and dozens and dozens of kids. :rolleyes: some under the age of voting
