The Anonymous Widower

UKAS Visit Day

Yesterday, as I walked up Brownlow Hill to the University.  I saw this sign outside the Victoria Building.

UKAS Visit Day at Liverpool University

It was all so different, when I went in 1965.  I was accepted by the university with no interview and the first time I went to the city was the day I arrived by train after a four and a half hour train journey from London and had to haul my heavy suitcase up the hill to get a bus to my digs.

Yesterday, as I did the same walk, I reflected on how far I’d come in those 46 years. The Catholic Cathedral was now of course finished and new buildings were lining Brownlow Hill.

And there was a welcoming notice on the doors of the Electrical Engineering building!

Welcome Sign

I liked that! C would have been proud.
