Back from the workshop on Anglo-French hosted by the Learning Anglo-French Project (@medievalfrench.bsky.social) . Great getting an update on some of the ground-breaking interdisciplinary work happening, and left with some promising ideas for collaborations. Thanks to the project team in Exeter!

Can't believe it's been ten years since I adopted this little one (after my father rescued her from a truck engine on a country road)

I usually do a version of the former (redacted to maintain anonymity) and then add the name at the proofs stage. The advantage of doing it this way is the journal knows to assign enough space for the footnote and there is less chance of creating issues with cross references 😊
