    Massive thanks for mentioning my post. It took a huge amount of effort to research the case and put the post together and I was starting to feel like no one had noticed. This is an important case for ELT teachers abroad and I mainly just appreciate you helping to spread the word.

    Thanks very much for the mention.

    Cheers for the mention. =) And Adam, I have yours to read when I have a chance. It’s too dense at the moment while I’m surrounded by MA readings to do.
