London site of CH

Anything that doesn't fit anywhere else, but that's still CH related.

Just a note to say that I have written an essay on the London site if anyone would like to have a read through? It hasn't been submitted yet, and so proofreading would also be useful.

If you are interested please provide me with your email and which version of Word you are using

I'd love to do the proofreading, Sally, and the material would be most interesting. I achieved a distinction in the Pitman certificate a while ago, if that's any recommendation? However, I've only got installed "Microsoft Office Student and Teacher Edition 2003", which might be hopelessly out of date!

Love to. I'm a professional editor. Our David Miller (foureyes) might give me a recommendation. I use an ancient version of Word, but that's no problem. Unless you have very special formatting, they're mutually compatible.

Strongly recommended. I use Word 2007 but had no problem with michael scuffil's editing. Be warned though - he takes no prisoners, grammatically or syntactically and is particularly strong on bad spllieng!

You'd better go with Michael, Sally, as recommended by David - he's the professional editor!

Sally has entrusted her work to me. I consider myself bound by the secrecy of the confessional, and shall impose penance according to the usual tariffs, beginning with one minute under a cold shower for a rogue apostrophe, and recommend a reward of one month without access to a mobile phone for every page with no hint of error.

Sally

Will you consider publishing your article/essay? It sounds as if it would be of interest to the OB community.
