Well, it was acquired by Continuum when the founders retired, but I think it had lost its connection with the University of London by then. Bloomsbury only acquired Continuum about a decade later.

T & F do have form on this. I had just joined UCL Press as an editor in its first incarnation in 1997 when it was unexpectedly acquired by T & F. This acquisition destroyed much of the hard work and good will that had gone into setting it up.

A comment as the local organiser. We are holding rooms on campus for participants but we can only guarantee availability for these until 9th May as Stirling accommodation is much in demand over the summer. So please do book this week if you require accommodation!

I’m with Sylvia! The Forth is tidal a long way upstream but that doesn’t make it sea. The section right up to Kincardine Bridge from the Isle of May at the estuary mouth is known as the Firth of Forth. So I’d say it’s sea only beyond the Isle of May and river only upstream of Kincardine.

It’s a series, published in the 60s and 70s about a girl who goes on holiday to north Cornwall and meets a dragon who has been around since Arthurian times. Gentle and charming - Green Smoke is in no sense a scary dragon.
