The Lass is a lovely pub with great ale and is well worth a visit even when the Lass Fest isn’t running. As well as being there for my own talk on the 19th (which I really hope you can join me for), Leah and I will definitley be doing our best to attend at least three of the other talks next week. Hopefully we’ll see you there.
