A real bargain?

Have been looking for a CD copy of an album I used to have on vinyl many years ago. Having checked periodically on Amazon, I suddenly found it available – imagine my excitement at seeing it offered at a "low price".

I think this is stretching the definition of "low" somewhat.

AC21 – more on day 2 and through to day 3

Follow-up to AC21 – Day 2 (and it's raining again) from Prole Art Threat

Day 2 concluded wonderfully with excellent session on autonomy v accountabilty in HE from Nigel Norris and a sale of my book (every one counts!).

Day 3 just as good with first rate presentations from John Field, Ron Barnett and Nick Barr, all followed by a really good dinner.

I do wonder though about the description of the menu as featuring highlights from the cuisine of the West Midlands – still sounds strange.
