Nicholas Gardiner - has progressed from zapping garnets with lasers to writing computer programs near Didcot.

Simon Gough and Nova Dudley-Gough - Simon Gough has always been called Simon Gough and has been one of those people who hung around after his degree to do a Geology PhD at Oxford. Nova Dudley decided not to call herself Nova Gough after marrying Simon. They got married at a splendid service in Ilkley, then went to Holland for a life of tulips, windmills, dykes, herrings and cheese.

David Haddad - guardian of the sacred 'key to St. Cross'. Also knows the true recipe to felafel...

Alison Jones - Alison is famous for wearing nice scarves and shoes and working as a publisher at Oxford University Press. On occasion she gets drunk and feels billious the next day so decides to drink fizzy water in order to feel better.

Rob Simpson - fun and games on the golf course and Mount Everest [not at the same time though].

Dave Wacey - Blackpudlian Dave is one of those people who not only hung around after his degree to do a Geology PhD at Oxford, but also found himself working as a Postdoc too. Nice! Currently involved in interpid pub crawls with me, seeking to put back the boundaries of pub rating all the time. He's with Laura Robinson, at a pub, in the pic below.

Christian Walker - his home directory has now expired, but I have pinched some bits of it! His legendary list depicting the pubs of Oxford may be viewed by clicking this.

Jennifer Watkins - she melts rocks from Northern Scotland in a lab at Kingston University. This has prevented her from actively following a career in the performing arts and so the world has been denied the opportunity of hearing 'Lewisian Spice' on the guitar, but then she's more into Steve Vai than teen pop anyway. This is a posed snap of her by an ornamental tree in the University Parks on a hot day in 1995.

Dave Waters - my DPhil supervisor. Lots of things about metamorphic petrology. The reaction kinetics stuff is particularly good.

Now Is The Winter (nitw.indiegroup.com) - a splendid Cheam based popular music combo that has been going for some while now - I believe that they caused a riot in the Gander on one occasion in the mid-1980s. The band is composed of Gary Knowles, Paul Lowe, Louise Lowe and Chris Robbie, and albums include 'Mist and Statistics' and 'Through a Glass Darkly'. Rehersals and recordings often take place in St. Oswalds Church, North Cheam, which is also the focal point for the Cheam Olympic Bid for 2016, a modified version of the Cheam Millennium bid which Paul and I put together and narrowly missed out to Greenwich and the Dome. Another key part of the bid is the expansion of the painted lightbulb industry by Louise's brother Rob; more details at www.painted-lightbulb.co.uk.
