Dear Colleague,

Once again we're looking for help with the marking of Advanced scripts. This time last year I circulated a similar message: https://www.lagb.org.uk/forum/13073432, so I won't repeat what I said there. Our problem is that teachers have estimated 2,200 entries, and we've currently only got marking capacity for 1544. The number of predicted entries is good news, of course, and last year's appeal did produce the extra markers that we needed, so we hope that you'll rise to the occasion once again. The marking needs to be done this year between Feb 10 and 17.

And remember, this gives you a chance to see close-up five gripping brain-teasers from linguistics!
