Doris,

Just read that myself and it looks really interesting. Providing we have a good season, I just might be tempted to go. And how about doing a Scottish poster??

Better than that, Doris is giving a talk! Unfortunately I have a conference in Dundee which overlaps.

G.

[Stromnessbees]

Is she? The idea was to get Torquil to do most of the talking and that I provide the morphometry data. But Torquil doesn't know yet ...

Doris

[gavin]

Well, you are named on the tentative programme on the web page.
