 Hard Copies: We realise that historians can spend their entire lives looking at computer screens so we are going to do our best to provide paper copies of all documents. These can be collected from the 27th February onwards from the History common room (H302) on the third floor of the Humanities Building.

Food and Drink: As always, snacks, drinks, and nibbles will be provided. We would love to see as many of you as possible; it will be a nice opportunity for an informal discussion so everyone from MA to Professor is welcome!
