alt_aliceI have some rather good news.
As of August 1st, the Magical government of France has agreed to formally recognise Albion as the official government of the United Kingdom. We’ve also hammered out a formal trade agreement after many long hours of negotiation. Our next step is to appeal to the International Confederation of Wizards, and to send a delegation to speak directly with the Muggle government of France and the United Nations, which will no doubt be another lengthy process indeed, but will be a necessary step in our reintroduction to both the magical and non-magical international community at large -- and what a relief to be able to make some initial forays before the wards come down. France's formal recognition help greatly with our appeal to the ICW (and it doesn't hurt that the current Mugwump is French, either)Regardless, we can now expect a far more free-flowing exchange of medical supplies, food, and other necessities. We'll be coordinating with the Communications committee for full coverage in the newspapers and radio.
It has been a lengthy, often frustrating process – Mr Foote, MP Birdwhistle, Cedric, and Stebs deserve a rather large round of congratulations for their tireless efforts.

Date: 2015-07-29 02:46 am (UTC)We're still sorting a final date for trying for Barra, but it won't be Thursday, or probably Friday.
Between the ritual at Barra and the 7th, we'll need all hands in to sort out details and implications for the Octoboros shift, once we can get measures of the effects, but we're sort of in a holding pattern right now.
I mean, we're developing as many models as we can in advance. In a perfectly modulated cosmos, we'd take a dozen measurements, they'd fit perfectly into an existing model, and we could relax. We do not have a perfectly modulated cosmos, we have a very scuffed up bit of world, but I am hoping that advance planning now will mean fewer adjustments when we're rushing toward the 7th.
At any rate. I'm babbling, because yes, of course, I'll make it clear to Evelyn she should take the time she and all of you need. And I'm not expecting to be much good on Friday myself.
