View from the 12th

A screaming comes across the sky. On the 12th floor, cocooned behind double glazing, there is silence. Manchester is a long way away.

There's an interesting keynote on the theme of making research more relevant to industry. Then open space opening. After lunch is another committee meeting.

Aslak arrives early evening. I go to the apartment to let him in. He goes to the hotel. I wait, he walks. Giovanni joins us and we go back to the Stanton for dinner. And then a pub. In this city they serve beer on small 20cl glasses (kolsch?) which they refill without being asked.
