MAD TRAVEL
Friends! I depart tomorrow for the UK.
If anybody will be in London from 7/6-7/12, may we please grab a pint together?
From 7/12-16, I'll be in Leeds, where I hope to see many peeps! (My paper is just about done...) Hit me up if we'll be in Leeds at the same time!
Then, my dear colleague and I are hieing ourselves to Iona and Skye for some much needed holidaying.
From about 7/20-7/25, I am aiming for Cambridge. If anybody will be there, can I buy you a pint?
Bitchin'! I can't wait to leave this hellish inferno, where EVERY DAY for the LAST THREE WEEKS has shot up above 90 degrees F. Some days, it's been 105, and that's BEFORE THE HEAT INDEX. It's enough to drive a person mad.
Slaine abhaile.* I'll see you on the B-side!
*That's Irish for "safe home."

Safe travels, and have a wonderful time!
We'll just miss each other. Happy travels and happy conferencing!
Will be in Leeds as you know, and I live in Cambridge (though I won't be there 24th/25th). NB that Magistra et Mater and I are trying to put together a blogger's meet-up at Leeds, and she has posted about this and I will shortly. What I'm struggling with is the adequate protection of anonymity from non-bloggers, so if you have any ideas on that score we'd welcome them.
There are vague (but unco-ordinated) suggestions about a bloggers' meet-up at IMC. See Magistra et Mater and Corner of Tenth Century Europe.
