Last held in 2013, we all believed that that was the end of the annual Online conference – until this week, when it was revived in London.

LVZ was operating the complicated lifts, and my colleague BMR selling miscellaneous books on a stall at the base of a wide spiral staircase. I started watching a film with TPR in an auditorium, but left early to attend an exercise class.

The strangest aspect of the event was its timing at Easter. I missed the ‘Christmas is coming’ feel of Online in the olden days.
