It's been a week since the British contingent of bloggers converged over mongolian dinner for a very happy incident - to get to know Jelica of Budapest Bits, who, although famous by now in blog camp circles, hasn't been introduced to its British line. The meeting was, of course, in Oxford. Where else.
Despite the A406 gridlock and the new StreetCar Golf refusing to behave like expected, I have made it, with half hour delay to the Cornmarket Street Starbucks... yes, again, where else! And, as the blog camp tradition dictates, that's exactly where we sat over lattes, with cameras and iphones, catching up and getting to know each other and this wonderful meeting over a coffee really was like going back to a blog camp home. After the all the coffees were drank up it was time for food and after careful consideration of some fine Oxford eateries we settled for a mongolian wok place, as recommended by Blanca. And that's where we set up camp for the rest of the evening. Talking. Talking, taking, talking. Talking about blogging. Talking about reading and writing and phototaking, and - of course, the theme of the month - about the Lack of Inspiration. We then moved to the train station and on to the car park. Still talking...

Just find it so exciting to hear about the blogcamp traditions and to see a photograph of you girls.

So glad you blogged about this! I was so happy to see you all! And to meet Jelica, of course. Let's continue the BC and mini BC traditions!
I'm also very happy you posted about our mini blog camp :) I tried to describe it to Ruslan but the best I could come up with was that we just chatted like old friends, and that it was fun, joyful and very natural. We definitely did not run out of things to talk about :)
i really love that you're still getting together and adding new peeps. thanks for the update Polly.
