Sigh

The biggest CASE Europe Conference ever .... with over 950 attending ... from 32 different countries ... and the only frame of reference from The Times Higher is Bridget Jones and Sex and the City.

Julie Burchill on why Brighton rocks ...


Though a bit dated (from 1999), Julie Burchill's article "Brighton rocks" in The Guardian is worth reading again for insight into the undeniable "charm" of Brighton.

Brighton pier ... countdown continues

Four days and counting ...

CASE Europe Annual Conference time again.

Packing up boxes - reviewing delegate badges (all 948 of them). Last few days always hectic.

Most of us hoping for good weather (well, I have mixed feelings - walks along the seafront could be very tempting if the weather is nice! Would prefer if there were no competition to session attendance).

Tomorrow to Brighton to make sure our supplies have arrived.
