Notes

I include lots of trivia, such as people, places and shirt colours so that past participants may be able to place themselves in the story. Some of the details may be wrong.

A dilemma many historians face is whether to order content chronologically or by topic? As BWO is a seasonal event, its story fits fairly well into seasons I have gone for one season at a time. I’ve also made a site map that shows the two dimensions.

Each BWO season sees a lot of work in the months before the week itself, so the stories marked with a given year often begin well back in the previous year.

Most of the content here was written by me (Eric Love) but I’d love to include stories from anyone else, even if it’s short or you don’t think you’re a good writer.
