Comments and Impressions:

Pop-up Inn with Alianora Jehannette des Amandiers and Ysabel de la Oya

• My good husband is home safe from Coronation with tales of valor from many, but especially from those who came together for the good of all the hungry Calontir citizens. Earlier today I heard stories of the Inn keepers stranded at home, and with them, the provisions for lunch. Dire news indeed! But Calontir pulled together with contributions from those who managed the trek, and no one starved. This is just reason 10,362 why I love this Kingdom. - Brialen Ulfsdottir
• I want to give a VIVAT!!! To tonight’s Parking Lot Fairy. I went to get my car after feast tonight, and someone had already given it some very thorough attention with a scraper and brush. Whoever you are... I thank you. So very much. -Adelaide
• I was also the recipient of a brushing, and am very grateful. It made such a huge difference. It looked as if nearly every car in the lot had been brushed! -Margery of Penrith
• Thanks to Mistress Sine ni Shranachain and her crew for feeding the royals, to Mistress Svana Lutusdottir and THL Lorraine Devereaux for caffeinating and watering them. and to my dearest sister Lady Nuala de Shetland for the delicious scones! --Mathurin
• An impossible task without Lady Kate Kathy Archer and our sidekicks Shane and Sir Hobbs. I would like a special thanks as well to Nuala for the savory scones - they were a crowd favorite! I’m not sure who brought the deviled eggs, but they had HRM Tamar’s seal of approval. Well done, BFS! - Sine
• Thank you to HE Gwen, Ms. Jorunn, and Ms. Giraude for lending us dress forms and mannequins for the regalia display. And thanks to THL Andromir for bringing the cloaks, coronets and principality banners. Thanks to HE Ylva for leading the Newcomer's Roundtable, and to everyone who participated. You all rock! -Loraine Devereax
