Yes! The first time I read it, I thought, "Oh very nice." The second time I thought, "Hey, I could get to that!". So I plan to use my air points (most of which date back to 2000/2002 UK travel) and a few $$, and hope to find someone to stay with in Sydney, or else share a motel...or even go to a youth hostel or backpackers.

Nope, my airpoints would get me to and from Australia, but not as far as UK.

I have now got my air travel organised, and have registered. I just have to organise accommodation (YHAs).

It's a shame nobody else from ITW will be there...hey, c'moooon you Aussies!!! Otherwise I will have to represent both Narniaweb AND ITW [heavy load on shoulders, begins to feel like Uncle Andrew with a High and Lonely Destiny]. One other Narniawebber is coming just for the Saturday.

You needn't email anyone, just take your copy of Narnia and C. S. Lewis for Dummies! *waves his copy around with pride*
Rat! he found breath to whisper, shaking. Are you afraid?
Afraid? murmured the Rat, his eyes shining with unutterable love.
Afraid! Of Him? O, never, never! And yet -- and yet -- O, Mole, I am afraid!
Then the two animals, crouching to the earth, bowed their heads and did worship.

Perhaps you can buy me a few strands of his hair? If they have those for sale?
