Friday 11 September
At the end of a very long week,
and, on Holt's part, an inspiring talk about what it is that philologists
(should) do, we decided to kick up our heels and go out to Myrtle's Punch House
with Eleni, Valeria, Hamish, Dana, and Colin.
It was fun to hang out with the younger faculty, there are comfy couches
to sit on, and Myrtle's always has something new and interesting to drink (this
time, Admiral Russell's Punch).
Afterwards, Eleni kindly drove us
home, and of course we invited her in for dinner (she happens to be one of our
vast readership - hi, Eleni!).
Luckily we still
had a small mountain of pulled pork from Sunday, so all it needed was to be
reheated and piled on top of mashed potato and turnip, enriched with goat
cheese, butter, and cream.
We lingered, chatting, over dark chocolate
and red wine. It was a wonderful start
to the weekend.
