I have an email here reminding me that the annual Westcott Culture Fair is
\ncoming up this Sunday, 9\/17, from 12-7. Without much planning, we’ve enjoyed the
\nC-Fair each of the last
\ntwo<\/a>
\nyears<\/a>. Of
\ncourse, it was easier then. We lived within a block of Westcott. Each time,
\ncurious about the heavy traffic from cars and passers-by, we’d look out, figure
\nsomething interesting was going on, and head over to Westcott–a strip of shops
\nand restaurants in the old neighborhood just east of campus. This year’s C-Fair
\nshould be more interesting, however, and I’m noting it blogally because the
\nemail includes this:<\/p>\n

The fair starts off with a parade where members of Nottingham’s varsity
\n football and soccer team, along with our cheerleaders, will be marching.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I could be off, but I take this to be saying that Ph. will be among the
\nparade marchers at noon on Sunday. Uh, except that we<\/i> have somewhere else
\nto be at that very same time that "the fair starts off," it should be a lot of
\nfun. Westcott C-Fair-style. If you get there and I don’t, snap a picture, will
\nya?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
