A core group of some 70 registered participants and more than 100 in all attended the Society's 2006 Mallorca conference, which many applauded as the most successful event since the Robert Graves Centenary celebration at St John's College, Oxford, in 1995. Reports will doubtless appear in this journal and elsewhere in the near future. The formal opening to the public of Ca N'Alluny, Robert Graves's house in Deyá, took place two days before the start of the conference. Some information and images from both events, including the conference programme, are published on the Society's website at www. gravesiana.org. The venue for the next biennial conference, to be held in the UK in 2008, will be announced shortly.
