I'll try to be at this but work might hinder my plans. Still, hopefully some of us might make it to this lecture and, if I am not there, report back :-)

Argh I so want to go, but no way I could next month :(
btw I booked my flight over there for 10th April so could stay at yours for 2 nights if that's still possible...

Hi there, yes, very possible. My mom is still here but if you are happy with the big sofa in the conservatory or the airbed in the lounge no problem :-) It would be so lovely to see you! I am working on the Wednesday but maybe we can meet in London after work and do something fun? Really looking forward to seeing you! xxx

That's fine by me, and yeah Wed in London would be good, presuming I can afford it - eek! Really looking forward to seeing you too :) x

If not we can do something nice in Hemel :-) xxx

Awesome :-) Wish I was in the country! Hope you make it!

[ippola]

Thank you. I hope so too! I feel bad having to ask some time off at work, as I have only just started, but I might just have to, for Judith :-)

So...I've not managed to read ANY Butler due to incomprehensibility- should I go hear her speak or will I just want to die?

[ippola]

Hard to tell :-) I am hoping she won't be so impenetrable in person. I love her ideas but really dislike her inaccessibility...

[frankvague]

Heyo, if you do make it to the talk I'd love to hear how it is. I recall that she is somewhat more accessible in person than in print, and of course she can still obfuscate with the best of them. What?

[ippola]

Hey you :-) Of course, I'll tell you all about it if I can make it across. By the way, I am back. Just checking emails while Melissa is getting books for the bedtime story...
