(I went as Debi's guest for the first weekend - about which I've blogged too), so thanks very much for the chance!) I love your descriptions of the hotel etc - it's like a novel. <strong>jb says</strong>: Hi Elizabeth. Thanks for that, but, yes, I did know and I couldn't cope with trudging around with a portable all day. I'm going to be able to post now, though slowly, as I've been off the computer so long it's all clogged up with email and those daily problems that I'd hoped to avoid. Now I'll have to head on over to your site and see what happened to you. I have interminable curiosity.

Thank you for all these wonderful stories and secret thoughts from writers like Elif Shafak. What fascinating observations about her grandmothers. Your current posts capture moods very well. Looks like your raining posts are cool too! :-) <strong>jb says</strong>: It's stopped raining, Susan. Bright sunshine this morning. People are sitting around the site in deckchairs, their feet up to keep them out of the muddy puddles. A few of us have hooked up small stringy devices so we can dry our socks. Things are looking up.

I've always wanted to go & never managed it so I'm enjoying these bulletins from the front line. <strong>jb says</strong>: Thanks, Dick. I should be able to get to a little straight reporting soon. It's my first time here, too. Great reports from ‘the Woodstock of the mind’. I’ve always wanted to go & never managed it so I’m enjoying these bulletins from the front line.
