After a very poor night’s sleep I pretty much sleepwalked a lot of this morning but at the end of it I realised I’d picked up some interesting things. Mainly concerning me and my career, something I’m sure you’re fascinated with, but I’ll do you a favour and spare you the details.
This RT is a lot about the feel, the atmosphere. After last year’s financial disasters, people started RT a bit cautious, but the attendance, although down on last year, is good, and I have to say that I prefer it. You can actually get to talk to people. And the volume of the music in the ballroom isn’t so deafening that you can’t have a conversation, which is a definite improvement on last year.
I was worried that the heat would get too much, but no, that’s fine too. The hotel is rather stretched out, and the rooms are – adequate, but the conference centre is huge. You can get lost in it, very easily.
So tonight was the Fairy Ball. Some very fetching fairies and the Mr. Romance candidates were there in force, too. You want pictures?
