Apologies for the ridiculously late notification, but I’ll be meeting up with Elonka Dunin and Klaus Schmeh (and hopefully a fair few other crypto people) at the very wonderful Prospect of Whitby in Wapping on Saturday the 29th June 2024 between 2pm and 5pm, before heading off to Brick Lane for a curry.
Yes, I know that’s tomorrow. Yes, I’m sorry for the short notice. But please drop by if you can! If you haven’t previously been there for a Voynich pub meet, I typically aim to monopolize the terrace area at the back, and for a pleasant change it looks like it’ll be a totally Boutros Boutros Scorchio afternoon.
As you’d expect, I’m hoping to hear all the skinny from this week’s Histocrypt conference, along with a general catch-up of everyone’s news. But Plan A is to drink a pint in the sun besides the Thames.
Which is nice.
I’ll be there! 🙂
I’ll be there!
I hope to see Europe one day, and talk historical crypto too!
Nick Pelling: how was the curry?
I miss England, also British curries. Beer & sunshine? Both in plenitude here…. Elonka & Klaus’ book looks good! Hope you all had a great time! Did Steve rock up?
Jo: alas no ground breaking news from our crypto-curry munching voynicheros as yet, which doesn’t bode well for compromise between medievals & moderns. There’s always been underlying discent associated with past attendances by the dedicated Ninja clan experts, and outright C14 skeptics. More often than not cloaked within a feigned auspices of ‘all good gals and fellas well met’. My best guess being that Nick Pelling’s smarty party may have been no different, unless Bristols Steve Hurwood rocked up as moderator.
