day three.two

wonderful to have Susie Dent in Lichfield. She and I have been talking about her visit for over two years, and, finally, we've just kicked off Lichfield Festival's contribution to Speakers' Corner Lichfield (SCL) with 'Has the Golden Age of Englished passed' - a 30 min romp through 1500 years of new English words, followed by opening things out to the opinions of the audience at this free event. The next SCL event - 'Sound Off' - is on tomorrow as part of FUSE at 1pm in Beacon Park. It is a great shame that niether of these two events is listed on the actual SCL site.

thanks Nina. Perhaps I am looking at the wrong website, or the wrong part of the webssite, but even this morning at www.lichfieldspeakerscorner.org.uk under events, neither yesterday nor today's events are listed. where can i find them?
