Exeter University


My youngest daughter, Little Miss and I have spent quite a lot of time together recently. Mostly making our way through a box set of, ''Allo 'Allo.' I missed it first time around and she wasn't born.

Last weekend we visited Exeter University. She wasn't impressed, too many hills.

We pass a sculpture of a knight like figure. It holds a sword aloft at arms length. The statue is made as a kind of steel framework with the shape of a Norman helmet suggesting the head's eyes and nose.

"Coolio" I exclaim enthusiastically trying to sound pathetically hip.

Little Miss, grumpy from the hill walking replys,

"You could say 'Coolio' or another word might be 'crap'." She offers.

"You think? I like it. Bet it'll be great when it's finished."

She doesn't fancy Cambridge ? Lovely and flat!

And from a purely selfish point of view, following a short (very short) train ride she could baby sit the AB in return for cake!

She did fancy Cambridge. Unfortunately Cambridge didn't fancy her.
