If Jeff Meek's unforgettable testimony as the expert witness of "The Trial of William Merrilees" taught us anything, is that he is a consummate storyteller🌈⚖️ Working with him on this project , I was consistently captivated by his prose. If in Glasgow, join the book launch ⬇️

This Thursday (18th) 4pm. Join me, @drcharlielynch and Angus Ferguson for a discussion of Queer Trades. Wine and canapés too! Boyd Orr, 709 UofG Soc & Pol Sci

Thanks to Charlie and Angus Ferguson for hosting and to everyone who attended. A really enjoyable evening with some great questions and chat!

Always love a bit of #BetwixtTheSheets - but especially loved feeling like I was back in Glasgow studying ESH with Jeff Meek again! Fab episode 🎙️
