The comparison between the publication of papers and the traditional description of the bus service (none for ages then three come along at once) has probably been made before - but 'Here we go again', with three in a row.
I have been a member of the Scottish Vernacular Buildings Working Group for many years, have published several papers in the Journal (Vernacular Builiding) and am now Honorary President. Last year's conference was on the theme of The Urban Vernacular and that gave the opportunity to update my thinking on the evolution of houses in Early Modern Stirling and elsewhere (a theme I also covered in my recent presentation at Stirling Local History Society).
So, this morning, Volume 42 of Vernacular Building (2019) plopped onto the porch floor with the paper 'Archival Evidence and Urban Vernacular Houses' on pages 7-18 over my name.
With its theme of the Urban Vernacular, there are several other related papers, including one by the inimitable Geoffrey Stell on Early Flatting.
