Contrasts

Spent some of the morning in a brand new high tech building (rather empty mind you! - extra) and interesting to see that, surrounded by robots etc, the whole of the top floor was covered in blackboards which are clearly well used. Not a clue what the formulae mean (Meles probably does!)

Our big set piece meeting in the afternoon. All went fairly smoothly, with very confident and forthright contributions from students at their first meeting as members.

Evening at the movies with book group - Mary Queen of Scots. Some locations/relative geography looking rather different from how we experience them (Holyrood very unlike now and apparently in the Highlands!) but still a great story of two remarkable women. I remember being fascinated when learning about them and their relationship when I did history at school (which I loved).

Late night home but a good day
