I had an interesting day today. Quick pre root canal trip to the dentist…that joy is to follow tomorrow morning ๐ฎ an interesting UNESCO Information Society UK Working Group meeting in Carleton House Terrace followed by a great meeting with Hadley Beeman….I’ve wanted to meet her for ages. What a great woman :))
On the way to meet Hadley I found a crowd of people outside the Athenaeum, they were there to see the unveling of a statue of Sir Keith Park, who led te RAF to victory in the Battle of Britain. There was a flypast by a Spitfire which I managed to catch on camera…..I should have videoed it, but ermmm….I didn’t. Nevermind.
After a great time chatting to Hadley about many things including our backgrounds, programming for kids and changing the world I ran off to get the train home and pick up @thecheekster from after school club. Being starving I launched straight into cooking dinner and inspired by @Baskers #TwitterDinnerClub I decided to live tweet my cooking. It wasn’t easy, I think I left some things out, but it was fun…I might try it again sometime.
My friend Gary ( @GaryChurchman ) carved the inscription on the base of that statue.
