Make sure to check out Alex Mullen's blog for his account of the XMT and the US Open (which didn't even get a mention from me, since it falls into the category of "things I can't afford to go to"). It's great reading!
There's been nothing but memory on this blog lately, so I apologise to the people who tune in for other things. I feel like spending time at the weekend talking about little-known Victorian novels, if that interests you more, so stay tuned. And there'll also be some kind of announcement before long about what I'm calling the 'brexmt'...
