And now the freebie.
I'm going to Switzerland from Thursday to Saturday next week. All expenses paid, for a conference! Yay me! I shall also be in London for (probably) one night only next month for a course, and in the summer, I have to book my visit to Sheffield to present at the BAPS summer meeting. Yay!

Yay about Switzerland! Wish I could go, the skiing would be great, followed by a trip to the sauna...(!)

Do they sauna much in Switzerland? I have no idea. And sadly, (luckily for me!) no skiing. Travel. Fondue, sleep, conference, dinner, sleep, conference, travel back.
