Why does that site talk about conkers as though we are supposed to already know what they are?

This one's in the Fall (the Sunday before Thanksgiving to be exact), but it can't hurt to get the word out a little early! this will be the Third Annual,it is practically in my back yard. One of the better conceived events especially since K.Great for my local merchants and it improves each year it seems(only have been 2 so far...) Thanks for this nic,wherever you are.

Oh good!! I so look forward to the reports you do on it Kerouac.

I saw a sign on the neutral ground last evening for a Tattoo Festival at Harrah's Casino. :-X

I think I'll pass....

Did you go?

Sojoh wrote a blog post about her husband receiving a company email encouraging everyone to put work on hold and go to the Fête de la Musique. I thought it was really funny, because that wouldn't happen in the U.S. in a million years.

Actually, I was invited to dinner that night and just got a glimpse of the fête as I walked along the canal around midnight. It was quite lively...

Our local beer and cider festival that should have been on throughout this weekend only lasted Friday night then was cancelled . It is held right next to the river Wye and it is just too dangerous now with the amount of rain we are having.

This is what should have been on
