Hello lovely Conversation 2023 volunteers! Some of you were unable to redeem your groats last year; we have arranged with @Eastercon2024 for you to be able to exchange them for Levitation 2024 groats. So make sure you bring them with you!

Finally managed to get up & dressed today so hooray for me. 😷 ✊Still drained from Covid but clearer head. Caught up on few @eastercon2023 panels, incl. fascinating talk on Solar Punk from Francesco Verso, author of The ROAMERS @flametreepress. ☀️🔋🥷📚

LOST PROPERTY - we've reunited a few items with their owners but these two remain - a black jersey with a zip and a brown lightweight sleeved and hooded cloak. Does anyone know who they belong to? Please DM or report on Discord help-desk channel.

Catch-up gives you the opportunity to watch many more programme items than you would otherwise have had time to do (including watching all six items from the same time slot if you so wish). It's a real boon for our volunteers who worked so hard during the con, as well. 4/5
