Chicago was a secret? S'funny, I learnt about it at school......
I hope that you all have a wonderful time, and not too many of you get arrested.
Alas, I will not be attending, as the possibility of sharing a room with Dag is scaring the life out of me, and my virginity.

Not Chicago, but what they carry around in those violin cases, was a secret: otherwise someone like Dag would have known it, no?

Dag didn't know about it because she is one of life's innocents.

That doesn't mean anything Walter. We all had to wear boxing gloves when we went to bed at Eton, but that was for a totally different reason.

I do wish you'd come, LordE. Surely Dag won't be the only one looking for a roommate. I might be by myself as well.

I've booked already, and I'm the only one in that king-seize bed (KING, not LORD) until now ...

It doesn't matter what size of bed I use, Walter. Every time it's the same, I approach the bed and the lady invariably says "Oh Lord"!

I'm not so religious - "My king" isn't that bad either.

I need more details, I think. When she says that, does she roll her eyes, or do they bulge out in a surprised, shell-shocked manner? This may significantly influence my decision to come, so please give your response much thought.

Osso mentioned the Carleton hotel and motel in Oak Park. Both the hotel and motel are only one block away from a CTA train station. The CTA train travels from Oak Park to downtown Chicago in 20 minutes. A train departs every 10 minutes.

I'm loving the idea of a Bean-Mo-sozlet-Ducklets get-together...

So, I'm arriving in Chicago on Thursday evening already.
Might do some sightseeing on Friday on my own - does anyone know the schedule for the Duck Tours? [sorry, couldn't resist].

Walter,
I think the Duck Tours leave from Chicago's Navy Pier and are quite enjoyable. (Please explain to Gustav what they are.........he might be dissappointed.)
