Combustion dudes hard at work


In December 1998 I was working with Graeme Wake in the Department of Mathematics & Statistics at the University of Canterbury. Rodney Weber arranged a short visit of a week but unfortunately by the time Rod had arrived Graeme had departed! Graeme gave me the responsibility of looking after Rodney.

We worked very hard and finished each night with a well-earnt drink. We tried out several establishments, but always finished the night off at Bailie's Bar. By the end of the week we didn't even need to order the next round in person, a casual look towards the barmaid and she'd start linking them up for us.

That's what I call service.
