It was a great privilege and experience and I enjoyed every part of the event. Thank you for ... the fascinating lectures and demonstrations, at my alma mater - wonderful.

Thank you and all involved for an outstanding day with superb presentations/displays and an opportunity to converse with interesting people

Thank you for an exceptionally well organised and productive General Council meeting. I really enjoyed the presentations and meeting fellow alumni

Many thanks for an interesting meeting and lunch

I write to say how much I enjoyed the visit to The Nucleus today. The event was well organised and the speakers were most interesting...it was good to meet fellow graduates, some people I knew and some new acquaintances. The star of the show to me was The Nucleus - what a fine building

I thank you for a day which I really enjoyed and came away feeling that it was a privilege to have heard all the speakers and experience the Nucleus building and the tours

I enjoyed the whole event especially meeting and chatting with old friends

Could you please convey how pleasurable Saturday's meeting at KB was. It was particularly insightful to be on that part of the University campus and experience the excellent facilities in the Nucleus
