SHHHHHH! Don't tell everyone how wonderful it is.

There are enough Americans running to hide there already in the fond belief they might meet Frodo!

besides, if you unraveled Wales and spread it out flat it'ud be bigger'n than England on it own :)

Faldage and I will be there. I wonder why the announcement was removed?

eta, if you have a performance in the evening, why can't you be there at noon? Is it out of town?

Oh, dumb ol' me .. will someone convert the Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) to Eastern Daylight Savings Time or even Eastern Standard? This USAn can easily figure it out from there.
Thank you.

Will Shortz, cruciverbalist extraordinaire and leader of the U.S. Team at the World Puzzle Championship, announced the qualifier to join this year's team will be Saturday at 1300 EDT (an hour after the chat).

I expect other countries will be holding their contests around this time. The championship will be in Hungary. I'm certainly not in their league but some of y'all are.

I will have returned home very late (about midnight) from being out of town on business. Even if I awaken early enough, I might be too groggy to ask anything sensical.

Doesn't seem to be there yet. I lost my connection about 10 minutes before the end, so I'd like to see what I missed.

Edit, I was looking at the concluded chats section rather than the link to Quinion. It is there.
