LSL Linguistics and Literature on MLA Commons 7 years, 1 month agoHi everybody,
Looking forward to seeing some of you in Lizzie McNeill’s at 7.30.
I thought it worth letting you know that it’s really close to the Sheraton where the presidential address is from 6.45 to 7.30, so quite possible to go to both and to get from one to the other very quickly.
Best wishes,
Billy
