hello all;

I will be in England from January 14th through the 27th! I am attending a conference in London on the 26th (maybe the 25th, too) but other than that, my itinerary is fairly open. I plan to spend several days in Glastonbury, and hopefully near Salisbury/Avebury, and also Oxford/Banbury (not necessarily in that order). Any Mudcatters know of any musical doings in any of these areas? I am hoping to go to the Cecil Sharp house on Tuesday the 24th if Micca might be willing to escort me! Depending on weather, I might do some hiking, too and stone circle visiting.

As always, offers of couch/floor space are happily accepted and will be rewarded with pints of beer and songs...and an open invitation to any Boston visitors to stay in my spare room!

If you have noticed a trend, yes, it's true I am trvaelling to the UK a lot lately, and also seeking a way to move to the UK on a temporary or even permanant basis. I have been applying for teaching posts but so far no luck...though I will persevere (hence all my academic activities in England, this conference will be my third in the UK since last summer). If I had business capital I would open an internet cafe in Glastonbury which needs one desperately. Hmm, maybe I should just hunt for a chap amenable to a Green Card marriage? ;`)

Oh, god, just kidding about that one.
