I'm planning on coming along to the 'Maritime Rites' thingy on 14 September and may well feel the need for liquid refreshment afterwards. I'll make it the George and look forward to seeing others there. I see Evan Parker, no less, is among those who will be on the barge with Alvin Curran and my sister-in-law, no less, is among those on the bridge.  |

Certainly does look intriguing.
As I don't know anybody in real life, would it help if I wore an orange tie?

Entire life up in air still at the moment, but there's a possibility that I'll be in London on the 14th (or at least passing through) and this does look like fun.
I'll let you know as and when I do...
Sigh.

NB, a green carnation clasped firmly between your teeth is all that is needed. Oh, and some castanets  |

" Dress: Ladies, Informal Gentlemen, 'Orange Tie' with Medals" it says on my invitation. But I shall be very disappointed if you don't look at least a bit like this, Notoriously Bombastic.  Hmmm, I suppose on this particular occasion that might not single you out though. |

Ah! Morticia! We meet at last? ..... I won't see you unless you don't see me first. I won't be the one at the back with the carnation in my straightjacket because I'm not allowed out any more ... |

I'm unlikely to make it for anything like 5.30 (hadn't realised how early this thing was starting) but will head Tatewards if I think I can even make 6.30 - I imagine it will be possible to turn up halfway through this event? If I'm running much later than that I'll head straight to the George instead. Look forward to seeing you all (and especially 2 or 3 new faces)! |

Hadn't noticed this before. I'm rehearsing from 4 o'clock onwards in Greenwich, but would be great to see you all again if it's ok to tag along - what time would you all be at the George for, roughly, do you think?

I've got a score to bludgeon into shape before next week so I'm afraid that all ideas of a jolly this weekend are out of the window. Hope you all enjoy it this evening. I am having an evening with one of my former tutees, who is a very talented English student. We're going to eat some aubergine and black bean chilli and watch Fiona Shaw reciting Eliot's The Waste Land and (I suspect) some wine may come into the equation somewhere, though hopefully not too much because I'll have to work through the weekend as well.

Event finishes at 7 outside Tate so I can't imagine we'll be much later than 7.30 - see you later! |

Bugler! I`m not going to be able to make it tonight. It`s all the fault of my sloth (not Rambo my pet one ) I`ve got people coming over for dinner tomorrow and I`ve completely underestimated the time it will take me to restore some kind of order to Mort Manor.  Hope you all have/hade a great time. |
