The final evening "red" party. David, Alison & Basil.

 

What goes on at the summer school, stays at the summer school. And just as well judging by this photo that I took and I can't remember a thing about it. ;-)

 The start of the "red" evening. Drinks by the 200 year old tree.

 The oportunity doesn't come along very often so, whilst in the southern highlands I took some time out to visit my fathers grave in the Marist Brothers' Diamond Fields Road cemetery. An extraordinary & beautiful resting place.

 My father would have loved this grave stone.  A roughly hewn stone I designed for him.

 Such interesting patina on the old headstones. Celtic crosses, my favourites.

 I do hope I get the opportunity to teach here again.
