Graduation

Here are some long over-due pictures from my graduation on July 5th. We had a great day in Glasgow - the weather was great, and everything went without a hitch. It was a pretty good ceremoney - a lot of which was in Latin, including the University Academic anthem which we sang as the Academic procession entered. The Bute Hall, in which I graduated is built upon pillars, with cloisters underneath, and it was there that a drinks reception was held after the ceremony. It was all pretty cool really.

Me and my mum.


Me and the bird.


Me in my hood.


Me, James, Ru, and Bill. The graduating class of 2007.



This picture shows the Bute Hall in which I graduated. We had to walk up this first ramp, and then got hit on the head with a cap by the Principal of Glasgow University, who was seated upon the throne, and then we walked down the other ramp, and back to our seats. Simple.

So, now I am Alexander Brown MA (Hons.), Bth.

Oh! But where's Germy? Did he decide he couldn't be bothered? Fair enough.

Elizabeth MacKenzie was wanting to know your address, as she has a photo she wants to send you.

This is all the scuttlebutt from the 'burgh.

hope all's well with you in the Homeland!
