Poppy, a few quick things.

First, I think we've actually got a more or less final schedule for December 3rd. I plan to drop a copy off for you when I get a chance. It looks like there will be some interesting discussions, and some particularly useful material for the CCF group. (I'm also hopeful Raz will take Healer Stint off for a friendly drink somewhere in the midst of the afternoon, and make your life easier. And mine.)

Also, quick question for you, if you have a minute - have you had any odd encounters with Milland? Nothing urgent, but if you have time on Monday, tea perhaps, and a chat? (I'm sure you're busy today with preparations we all hope you won't need for tomorrow...)

I'm not sure he can manage drunk enough to fall asleep - but "sitting around for hours talking" should be well within the scope of possibility. Raz is most willing to do so, thankfully, and I'm hoping I can keep him busy enough before that.

On Milland - he's been friendly enough toward me in passing. But my schedule's so different from most people's, I don't tend to run into him as much, or at least not at times when talking's convenient.

But something about his manner makes me wonder, and a conversation with Raz earlier made me wonder again. (And since I trust your judgement, thought I'd ask - and you've certainly seen any number of staff come and go in your time here.)

Maybe it's just that I'm out of practice with someone quite so persistently outgoing here. (Raz is certainly friendly, but not as, well, insistent about it as Milland has struck me, and most of the staff are far more inclined to keep to themselves or a few closer friends.)
