I guess I should start on my CC26 stuff, in anticipation of getting to go. But I'm not doing Regency. I know it's sacrilege in some circles, but most of Regency clothes just don't do it for me. The stories, yes. The clothes, nah so mahch.

I can't really afford to go, either, but I'm damned if I'm missing it after 15 years....
