we also went to Taize last week. We had a lovely time, and managed to pitch our tents in the brief dry spell.

(Were you the person wearing a Debian shirt while waiting for welcome?)

My female friend did the silence at the end, but having taken down her tent on Thursday night was told to put it up again as she would be staying in it and not given a room - was that a male/female thing?

Was the morning mass Catholic? I had thought you were Anglican...

Ah, I thought I knew you! I kept seeing you around the site and thinking "I'm sure I recognise that person", but always being a bit too shy (or in silence) to go and say hi. Sorry!

Yes, I was wearing a Debian t-shirt, then later a Methsoc one (and a couple of others, but those were the two that attracted comments). I don't think I bumped into [livejournal.com profile] fluffle, but maybe given a good photo I'd recognise her.

AIUI, there were spaces in the male silence house, but not the female one. I was offered a bit of garden space if I wanted to move my tent, though.

The morning masses were Roman Catholic; at Taize they have a policy of giving communion to anyone who goes up for it, and the CofE doesn't say you shouldn't receive the RC eucharist.

Ah, but then I did the same, but without the excuse of being in silence...
