Our last was group meeting for 2012 was held at a house in Beddoe Avenue, adjoining the University campus. We decided to hold the meeting there since Tim and his family were living in the house at the time, but also because the research group was once located in one of these houses for a year during a time when the University was low on space! Kim talks about the memories of having afternoon BBQs, drinks and games of Pétanque, and his eyes gloss over as he thinks back to the glory days. Thus, it was only fitting have a BBQ for the meeting and dust off the Pétanque set for a few games in the sunshine.
A few photos from the day follow.
