Hmm. Well, a year ago this weekend my youngest daughter and I were in the UK for a few days. Unfortunately there had been so much going on prior to hopping the pond that I forgot to contact a few other folks I'd meant to get in touch with. Guess that is reason enough to return! But anyway, there were eight of us--Germany, the UK, and the USA were represented, so if it were the Oxford Arms, guess he might have been referring to us. It was nice seeing close friends again, and getting to know a few others. The weather was so lovely ("disturbingly beautiful" as one mentioned--great phrase! ) and the hike on HR was glorious! Some very funny things happened, and some wonderful things, too. Perhaps someone else could expound on what I've just said. And golf is an evil sport!!!
BTW, my daughters and I stayed at the Beacon in 2005. The two youngest ones stayed downstairs in the Grand Piano room. Regarding the living room with the fireplace, it felt as if the musicians had just left...maybe a couple of days before. To me, the fun, the work, the essence and echoes seemed contained in the walls. Hard to explain.
