CONNECTION WITH QE: pupil 1956-63

This year my wife and I decided to go to the Cambridge alumni weekend, which we have not done before. Especially did we decide to do that, as it coincided with a college reunion lunch for any who went up in the 60s. On the Saturday there was a choice of various lectures in different lecture theatres at set times. I decided to major on the science ones rather than the arts type. I am afraid in respect of the one on the Cerne Collider and the Higgs boson I understood and learnt practically nothing and I regret that the physicist talking did not put it across a bit more clearly for us non-physicists. The other difficulty was the time it took to walk from place to place on site visits. Fond memories of the bikes I used to have to get around!
