Long, fun day at Hursley. As always, I tried to pack too much in… And left too much Undone. I saw many old friends met many new ones and left many dangling threads. Now I need to do some follow-up to make sure those threads are tied up.
It was pretty fun walking around the old Pursley lab. I hadn't been inside there for 27 years and believe it or not I could still find my way around. Here's the old cafeteria . I think some of the food dates back to then.
I especially appreciate my friend Bill making the trip from Germany to visit that was very helpful. He even brought his Nerf gun
I have some great meetings with folks and gave a talk learned a lot
After work we all went to the wykeham arms, the local bar down the street from our old apartment.
It has not changed at all My friend Dave, Bill, Nick and hugh joined me for dinner. It was delicious and the company was great (Even if the lighting was poor)
Afterwards we took a quick stroll up Cannon Street to see our old place
The Samstone was still there and it had been moved
On the way home we stopped by the Chessell rectory where Diana and I were engaged . Great memories
Okay… That's all for today at the flight home tomorrow at five more from the road.
Night all, night sam
