Best department meeting ever...

...at Cusworth Hall today...

Met at 11 for coffee and chat - much hilarity in the car park as Christina couldn't find reverse on the hire car! It was there when they went to the Yorkshire Dales yesterday, allegedly...

She's visiting from Sweden - seen here with her daughter Madeleine & Boyf Theo. Christina's partner otherwise engaged with motorbikes today. 
Dave also in the pic - he's retiring this summer - but his wife had to leave after coffee to see an end of term performance at the school where she's a governor.

Lots of chat over coffee, a wander round the lake, then more chat over a long lunch. Only time for two photos between the chat, and these are they!

A lovely catch up though, and lots of laughs. Great that Madeleine wanted to join us - we remember Christina dashing off to the hospital on the day she was born ;)
