Is the sequel as good as the first one?
Ever read any Connie Willis? I quite enjoyed "To Say Nothing of the 
Dog."

Let me know.

Thanks very much, I hope it will go well too (though I've just 
noticed some missing tables in the appendix and am starting to 
worry). Lunch sounds splendid - I'll be panicking on Monday, in 
Reading for the viva on Tuesday, and probably hungover for much of 
Wednesday, but should be lounging around South Ken Thursday and 
Friday if you're free then.

Glad that Ginger's cousin is ok (and belatedly thanking her for all 
her hard work), but otherwise gobsmacked by the scale of the 
disaster.
