I’ve been a bit lax with the 500 words partly because I have been on holiday but partly because I have been brooding over the RBKC post which I just published. Having set that free – and also published the piece I wrote about my research interests for the year here I am again.
I wrote at the start of the year that I wanted to open up my personal enquiry for the year and see who else is interested in the things I am interested in. I’ve spoken to a few people about this and have some takers so this post is intended to get the ball rolling …
