Hi all, 

 

I see that WMUK is also planning to organise an additional 15th Birthday celebration in London, but it is not clear whether this will be on the Friday or the Saturday.

 

The 10th birthday saw a party thrown by Jimmy Wales; and I was involved in the invitation list for that. So I was wondering who might be invited. In 2011 Cherie Blair came, and Bamber Gascoigne was invited as a member; he said pleasant things about WP, which got onto Radio 4. John Julius Norwich, another historian has just defended WP in the letters to The Times. Tom Watson the politician is said to be sympathetic.

Thinking aloud here, obviously. Who might be in charge of the event?
