THE TOP CLASS WEDNESDAY UPDATE IS THINKING ABOUT THE IMPORTANT STUFF – PART 2
After Mike’s Update of a couple of weeks ago, it’s a total joy and a welcome break from industry stuff and wider nonsense to welcome a new lang kitten to the world. Steve Nelson, who many of you will know as @langcatsteve, is the proud dad of Eva Nelson-Lebov who turned up yesterday. Eva and […]
ENJOY THE FAT OF THE LAND WITH THE TOP CLASS WEDNESDAY UPDATE
It’s touring season, mi compadres, and that means this week’s Update is coming to you from the welcoming, anonymous bosom of yet another hotel; the sort of place where ‘ach, it’s good enough’ is the company mission statement, as is ‘if they want a curry in their room it’ll be twenty five notes and they […]

Bow before the power of arithmetic: ATS ups charges
