Codgers

Color me Old Codger. I'm having sticker shock today over the prices of Twelft [sic] Night and Birka. Yes, I know that each is charging just a smidge more than a first-run movie ticket, and I couldn't eat anywhere nicer than Friendly's for a sum like that feast fee, but I am unused to these numbers - or to the notion that advance registration doesn't give a discount.

(If anyone knows for sure that the 12th Night feast is sold out, let me know so I won't bother sending an onboard reservation.)

I didn't mean to make you, or BBM generally, apologize for the event's budget. I'm sorry.
Heaven knows I've willingly enough coughed up real money for an anticipated excellent feast, including the one by [livejournal.com profile] lucianus1 a few weeks back.

Oh, I know that you didn't mean it that way! I was just trying to explain the reasons behind it. We're all aware that it is an expensive event, especially coming right after the holidays.
