\"Ammerdown\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 In spite of jet lag, incomprehensible directions which name roads that don’t exist, and impossible-to-see road signs, the Darling Husband managed to navigate our little red rental car to the Ammerdown Conference Centre<\/a> for the Tarot Association of the British Isles<\/a> Annual Conference, arriving safely late in the afternoon on Friday, July 6, 2007. The centre itself is a converted stables and dovecote on a lovely estate in the countryside near Radstock, Somerset<\/a>. After an exhaustive tour and orientation to the centre (including a warning about the bull in the field on the way to the monument), we were finally shown to our room to collapse for a bit before the evening’s festivities.<\/p>\n

Registration began at 6:00, followed by socializing, and dinner at 7:00. I recognized a few people from the excellent workshop on face-to-face readings I’d taken with Ania Marczyk<\/a> and Brian Stevenson<\/a> in London in March, and we had a good time catching up. Shortly after dinner, the one and only Lon Milo DuQuette<\/a> arrived (fresh from speaking in Amsterdam) and we chatted while he had a late supper. We were joined by Rachel Pollack<\/a>, and had a delightful time keeping company. (With the two of them, how could it be otherwise?!)<\/p>\n

After dinner was more socializing, and drinking wine, and socializing, until midnight, when the lack of sleep hit full force, and I decided that discretion was the better part of staying awake through the next day’s classes, and called it a night.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
