Back home again

What a wonderful and exhausting weekend (the Changeling National, of course).
I'm home, I'm whole (I think) but I hurt, at least my feet.

I think I'm getting into davywavy mode here, I said last year, never again will I cook a weekend long for more than 5 people (52 last year, 30odd this), I did it this year and I'll probably do it next year if I'm still around, I get enough notice and will be asked nicely and bribed with other things than P*******.
It's utterly tiring, running around like a headless chicken and directing the rest of the Bogganarmi, but the words of thanks and appreciation from everybody (with a handful of exceptions) make up for it and are worth far more than any bloody National P*****ge I get for it.

More later, I need to lie down and put my feed up, just a big THANK YOU to everybody who helped run the event, on the game and organisation side.

Changeling National Diary - Thanks and Quotes

Thanks are in order, of course:

First and foremost, for making it happen at all after all the setbacks: hyperabi without it wouldn't have been possible. WE ARE NOT WORTHY!!!!!

Then, the wonderful ST team, headed by dreamingchristi:
uknst who did a brilliant job of his first 'ling event, borusa, ravnospot and windszwept.

Next, everybody who helped out in the kitchen:
Edd, Doug, kizzie and robinbloke, among others.

And finally, the players who roleplayed brilliantly and helped out where they could. Nobody I asked to do something refused.

I have 158 photos, most of which will go up the elysiumgrounds site soon. Hopefully some time next week. I'm going on holiday on Wednesday but I'll have my laptop with me so I can do it from home.

Some quotes from the weekend:
- ST to Edd: Do you have the Drive skill? Edd: I have bull bars.
- Steph: Stop breaking my boyfriend! Kat: I'm not breaking him, I'm playing with him.
- High King: Please go forth and revel. Nockers: Let's get pissed!
- Andy at the Dr Who exhibition: These are worse than ours!
