Apologies to members of the FGLS mailing list, who have
received it already, but there may be people who might
still wish to attend FGLS3 - they will be welcome. We have
as you will see a good range of papers (barring calamity or
mass withdrawal), but might be able to squeeze in a couple
more, if anybody has any lying fallow. Anyway, prospective
participant or Zuhoerer, I'll be glad to hear from you.
Please use the attached form to register. I'm afraid the
supply of on-campus accommodation has dried up, but other
possibilities of accommodation are listed.
Looking forward to hearing from you,
John Partridge

C) If you come by car and don't mind being a few miles
out of town there are two motels (not of the Psycho
type and eminently respectable), reached by
following signs for A299 Whitstable/Herne
Bay/Ramsgate at the termination of the M2 :
i) Forte Travelodge
A299 Thanet Way
Whitstable
phone 01227 770980
[Follow A290 for about 5 miles. You'll see signs to
the left for Waterham and Graveney and immediately
afterwards a Shell station and a Little Chef. Pull
off left for the Shell station. The Travelodge lies
behind it.]
ii) The Long Reach Beefeater & Travel Inn
A299 Thanet Way
Whitstable
phone 01227 272459
[Go past Travelodge and leave A299 shortly
afterwards for Whitstable and Canterbury
A2990/A290). You'll see the Long Reach on the
right at the top of the hill, but it's best to go
round the island and turn in left.]
