1) yay for free conferences and 2) yay for the advent of Autumn :) my fave time of year is Autumn/Winter, I start to hoard stationary and get excited about crispy leaves and frosty mornings ^_^

Oh yes, looking forward to winter coats and getting to wear my new pink beret! :-D I don't even bother looking at things that are going to cost more than 50 quid. I always seem to get emails from my department to attend £3000 summer schools in different countries - not including travel costs. Considering that would allow me money to live on and not worry for a few months, I doubt i'd ever consider it. There are plenty of interesting and engaging people on the Internet to get me by for now. (Academic jollies are off the cards when you are looking at unconferences as part of your research...) >.<
