West Coast of USA Old Blues Lunch January 2002

Lance, Ian, Peter and John on the West Coast of the USA

From left to right: Lance Reynolds (Mid B 49-58), Ian Flanagan (Almoner), Peter Bloomfield (Pe B 44-51) and John Doyle (Mid B 40-48) following a lunch hosted by John at The Menlo Park Country Club on or about 10 January 2002. Judy Doyle was our photographer ably encouraged by Paddy Flanagan.

Following lunch we adjourned to the Doyle kitchen table for a thoughtful discussion about technology in the United Kingdom, how the teaching of Science at Housey during the 100 years since the move had an influence far beyond the school, particularly with Gordon van Praagh's work with the Nuffield Foundation, and how the proposed Design and Technology building might play a similar role in the future.
