But utterly braindead and exhausted. Learned lots, laughed lots, met some wonderful wonderful people and had a fantastic time.
In a while, when I have recovered a little and libraryland stops its total upheaval that has to happen (apparently) when I go away for a day or two, I will sort out photos and a blog post with some of the things covered – like Sarah Duncan’s fantastic tips on lifting a ms from good to great, Kate Walkers fab conflict workshop, and that wonderful “Oh my God, it’s 2am and we have to be at a session at 9am” moment!
But since all day today I had to struggle to say Connolly instead of Colony (and failed), I think I need a rest!
(plus I really really want to read Julie Cohen’s “Girl from Mars”)

Read it. Go on. You know you want to.
(PS Great to meet you!)

Oh, I already am!
Great to meet you too. Hopefully we’ll get a chance to chat more at the next one!

It was SO fun, wasn’t it? But I am SO tired!
Still, all worth it. And lovely to meet you!

I was so sorry it finished, but I think a couple of days more would have finished me off!!
Great to share flat/wine with you.

Yes, I’m not sure I would have survived much longer.

I’m still trying to catch up on my sleep! Oh, the memories I have (most of them food or wine related, and some of them even really happened.) It was lovely to meet you, sorry I couldn’t say goodbye properly, hope you had a safe journey home.

No problem at all. I was there for lunch, but ducked out afterwards and nipped up to the Observatory to have an added mooch!
The trip home went very very smoothly. No stress at all.
There was a lot of food, wasn’t there?
