10 years

Everyone who has been here for a while knows that I spent an excellent five years working at KIMEP in Almaty, Kazakhstan. A former student of mine there has just reminded me that he graduated 10 years ago in May of this year. That also led me to realise that 1998 was my final KIMEP graduation ceremony and I remember it very well and very fondly.

Top tip on the stairs

When you are in a bit of a hurry don’t put your cup of coffee on the stairs and then try to balance an orange on top of an apple IMMEDIATELY above that cup of coffee in case the orange IMMEDIATELY AND UNSWERVINGLY drops into your coffee thus splashing coffee all over the stairs.
