Day 267 - September 24th

Today we took Steven back to university. I paused for a moment during the afternoon to take a photo of the impressive bronze statue of Brunel.


Steven told me that the statue of Isambard Kingdom Brunel was supposed to have a cigar in his mouth but it was removed because of political correctness!

I forgot to take a photo of Steven's halls but managed to borrow this photo from the internet until I can take my own.

How interesting that students could be thought to be at risk of being corrupted by a historical figure with his trademark cigar!! It certainly appears in many photos of Brunel.


Steven's new hall looks good - hope he has a great term.
