Thanks, Rachele — great to see you today

And here:

I have also been pointing visitors to these linguistics activities:

www.linguistics.ac.uk/british-acad...

It also brought back memories of Aix in 2022 when Tony previewed versions of the opening sentence to our audience at the PALA (Poetics and Linguistics Association) conference)

I have memories of watching it in Aberdeen with my friend's sister and her baby during school lunchtimes — at a time when it seems it wasn't on TV in the UK (I trust the facts more than my memory, of course)

You’re not too far off with that guess B—)

Thank you! And thanks for helping me get here! B--)
