Part Two

Well, we entered and found out that it was actually a church, which gave the organisers an excuse from doing anything but sit their and look interested. No eating, drinking, smoking (not that I’d want to), talking on phones, phones. You get the idea. Anyway, the intro was so boring thateyfgvgdv. Sorry fell asleep thinking about it. Moving on, the first lecture was particle physics. A boring start compared to the rest of the day. Nether-the-less, it was quite interesting listening about particle accelerators. As Dave, said, we already knew most of it. All he was trying to do was flog his book.

After this was how to succeed in physics exam by boring guy. Lewis, Jon, Rob, Andrew, Sanjay and I were all scribbling notes frantically. Dave on the other hand, wrote: “Use bullet points”. Wise guy. A break was to follow this. As soon as the last sound wave from Tim’s mouth hit the eardrums of the listeners they were gone. Woooossshhh. Downstairs to eat, drink talk etc. The whole hall probably emptied in 2 minutes. We masticated for a while, I excreted excess water and then we returned to the rock hard Pews made of wood. At least buy some cushions or something. The next lecture was about how Einstein’s brain was cut up. Whhooopppeee. So what? Well, a 93 year old has hard hearing. So what? All rather pointless, except for the life-size model of Einstein’s brain. Rather cool technology stuff.

After this was the highlight of the day. Not enough time to explain it all. Most of you reading this will know what it’s like anyway. Cool guy with beard, Beardy and the wife he locks in the cupboard with her sound equipment until she is needed. Tyler should really get a wave maker with red lights on the end. Rather good teaching tool I thought. Buy Tyler Buy!!! Beardy then broke the microphone buy shouting MOO too loud. Funny at the time. Hehe.

At last, lunch at 1325. We walked to Lambeth Bridge, a 5 to 10 minute walk from the church. We then sat down next to the river, which Rowan thought wasn’t tidal. Idiot. tut. Anyway, we ran to a bench and Lewis was found to be the rotten egg. Ha. We ate some lunch and thanks to some persuasion from Lewis, we played a game of PDQ. Great fun because I won a game against Rob in the final. The best final was Rob vs. Dave. I can’t remember who won. Any help? We finished consuming our midday snack, and on the way back met two extrodinary people. One black boy and one applied science looking white boy.

Black boy says: “Anyone wanna buy a bike”

This is whilst he’s wheeling it along. Applied science looking kid stays in the background looking shifty. We all mumble no and I tell Richard in german that he has stolen the bike. He agrees and I feel like I want to hit the black kid. I once had my bike stolen, but that’s another story.

I’ll wrap this up quickly, because you may, or may not be getting bored. Lasers was next, which I found quite fasinating. Great. The final lectures was an amazing juggling display by a guy with a maths Phd. Very entertaining if not a bit confusing. Well, thanks for your patients.

In the words of the Davemeister

Bye for now
