Hmm, didn't think of that. Do you think there's any preference in terms of what day to attend, Friday or Saturday? John Garth is the keynote speaker but I don't see anywhere when he's speaking. Any idea? I've actually already booked my hotel around a Saturday visit, but I could still change this to Friday if there was some compelling reason to pick one day over the other i.e. Garth (or some other talk of significance) & on what night there'll be a few shandies?

The final programme isn't published until Oxonmoot but my spy in the camp tells me that John is down for Saturday afternoon. There are shandies in the bar every night.
The masquerade and party is on Friday evening.

Looks like I plumbed for the right day then! Only problem is... I've not actually booked Oxenmoot.

Oh, just to add: a SAT ticket will get you into the exhibition that night. That's confirmed. You also, as you say, definitely can get tickets on the day. Problem is am I going to drive all the way from Glasgow to not get in?

Looks like there has been a bit of a disagreement behind the scenes about the evening.... I would definitely book time during the day. You will need more than 30 minutes.

You're right Deagol; they just got back (a second time) saying the day-ticket doesn't include the evening Bodleian visit. Just too busy I suspect. No problem, as long as I can get in to a few talks during the day...
