We may just pull this off
It is now twenty minutes till the final day registrations are officially accepted for Norrskensfest, and we have 59 people registered. (I guessed weeks ago that we might reach somewhere between 50 and 60 people--I think that is what we had last year, but last year we had royalty--we don't know yet if we will have any this year--the new Prince and Princess only won and were invested today--they aren't likely to see my email inviting them till Monday at the earliest, so I wasn't certain if we would see the same kind of numbers.)
The cloak is coming along nicely. I have been saying all along that I wouldn't start the writing around the cloak hem till everything else was done, but it turns out I was mistaken about that. While everything else is nearly done, there is still a fair bit to do on the second set of northern lights, but I just couldn't resist starting the writing anyway, and in four hours this evening I managed to get as far as the "s" in Norrskensbard in the phrase "Norra Nordmarks Norrskensbard" on the right hand side (the phrase will be repeated on the left hand side, too. So now the cloak is up to 183.9 hours of work, by 22 people, and I think what is left to be done is quite achievable in the next two weeks...
