What shame the “early bird” tickets have apparently all sold out!
I’d have been especially interested in the under-representation of mental health problems in Ambridge’s women. As I said in another post, I’m amazed that Helen (who has never been treated as someone who was particularly robust to begin with) has coped much better with the aftermath of domestic violence than I would have thought given her psychological profile. No-one really feels in low mood for long in Ambridge: the village is replete with stoics who enjoy remarkably good physical and mental health.
And it would be good to hear from our own Clare Astbury, too, about the housing issue!
The dumteedum discount of 15% puts the tix back to the early bird price

Totally agree on the mental health issue – Elizabeth Campion’s paper on this in the afternoon explores this – she presented last year in the helen and rob strand.
I must confess when Claire’s abstract came in I was excited about her being dumteedum royalty!!
I do hope it will also be available online as it was last year (and even better if there is a better sound system). It was last year’s conference (online) that set me searching for dum dee dum.
I would dearly love to join you – and even talk about the need for insurance policies in the village – but I regret that I shall be at Heathrow catching a silver bird to Sri Lanka for a long holiday. Such a pity when you are so much closer this year.
I too shall be unable to join you which is especially frustrating as I am actually in the U.K. that weekend, but participating in a Longarm Quilting Academy in Bristol.
Good luck with the conference, brilliant choice of venue by the way.
Look forward to hearing the recordings.
