Well done, Pete!

I shall get over the fact that "Contemporary English Poetry and its Role in Butterfly Conservation" is markedly absent from such an auspicious agenda!

Lunch arrangements, perhaps, require some elaboration!

Look forward to being there!

Hi Bryan,

We'll give you a slot in the wrap up

Since we don't have any catering facilities available, I expect attendees to bring their own lunch, or scoot off to a nearby pub if that's preferred. Just be warned that we have an agenda to stick to so we won't be waiting for stragglers

Cheers,

- Pete
