raganiFor those who asked (well, just ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
noirem really) our plans are indeed to go to Dickens on Saturday the 4th. We are meeting my grandparents at 11 either at the front or at Fezziwigs if we miss each other at the entrance.
Anyone who plans to visit the fair on that day from the east bay wish to carpool into the city? The parking is $7 so it would be nice to save money, as well as the company. We will not have time in the morning to go far off our route but meeting either at our house by 9:30 or meeting somewhere along the route is an option.
Oh yeah, who all is working at Fezziwigs this year?
And for those doing DG windows that day, when can we expect to find you there?
Also, I was wondering if there is a pre-show. In the past there was a pre-show of Mr. Dickens going around and bringing to life the various characters from his books. It is just the kind of thing I think my grandparents would enjoy, so I wanted to know if I should tell them to arrive early for this or not. Any one who is working there know and if there is, when and where?

Date: 2004-11-30 10:44 am (UTC)Dick Wilkins was the clerk underneath Scrooge when Scrooge was working for Mr. Fezziwig. The reference in the book was "Ah... poor Dick." Said by Ebeneezer on his return trip to teh past.
The way it is played is that Mr. Wilkins is an eager young man from lesser circumstances wanting to prove himself. Therefore, often when Scrooge gets his walking papers, Mr. Wilkins is promoted to Assisstant Clerk [Scrooge's current position]. Mr. Wilkins also tends to get in trouble as the Fezziwig daughters like him, but he doesn't want to chance losing his master's good graces, not that it always stops him.
