Friday update - Brighton Uni - Graduation 2006 pics

Funny sign...
So, set the wayback machine for Friday! We went for lunch before Kipperfrog's graduation and were amused to see this sign at the entrance to the pub...(Badgers Retreat, just east of Brighton)...being both rather presumptuous and also spelled wronlgy, which ever way you read it... ;)
Humid at the sea side...
...anyway, as we had driven down to Brighton so the temperature reported on the car thermometer had climbed...by the time we got down there it was roasting, the view from the pub beer garden overlooking the channel illustrates this nicely, it's almost impossible to separate sea from sky in the humid haze...
Nice Beer...
...had some nice beer...
Minted Lamb Burger for my lunch...
...followed by some great food (minted lamb burger for me!) with bountious condiments -
Sauces...
- then zoomed into town (snapping someone coming the other way) -
Brighton Pier
- and parked up in the main station carpark (about ten minutes after Kipperfrog had intended to be actually at the dome thanks to how busy it was everywhere) -
Brighton Station
- so with a little haste, through the station, into a cab and thus -
The queue into
- swiftly into the queue (not in so much need to hurry then!), which was very fast moving indeed, taking us into reception -
Reception inside the Dome
- fitting (gown and hat), and then into the dome proper for processing ;) -
The assembled, ready to be processed...
- by the likes of Sir David Attenborough (et al) -
All the masters...
- then back to mine for home made pasta... ;)

Full stream here...
