[Loch-Ruadh] thoughts on bardics

[Madelina de Lindesay]

Brighid and I meant to attend last night, but after tending to some chores and errands, I was just too tired -- not to mention, it was 9:30 p.m.  Of course, it was just getting nice and cool about then, so the heat is a factor when it's held outside in the summertime.   Logan thought about attending as well, but Saturday night is his big tv night on the SciFi channel.  And anytime Weyland can have uninterrupted time on the computer (when his sister is away), then he votes for that.

I haven't been able to make any events or meetings of late due to health and monetary concerns.  I'm trying to get completely out of debt before we make a decision about where we're going to live.  Brighid's accident has really put the bug in Logan's ear about getting out of the city.  We may end up back in Olney, though I'm lobbying for the green banks of the Brazos, perhaps Stephenville or Glen Rose.

I really thought the change to Saturday was going to improve bardic attendance -- people could stay longer, have a few drinks, and have time to sober up for the drive back.   Seems like it hasn't been working out, though.

Any thoughts as to why?

Is it my imagination or has bardic attendance dwindled over the past 6 months or so.  Seems that when Jock and I first joined that the bardics were pretty big in attendance.  What has happened??
