Admissions to Degrees
My trip to Cambridge earlier this week along with talk of other anniversaries made me a bit nostalgic this morning so I dug out the papers I kept about my own graduation.
It turns out I graduated on Saturday 22nd June 1985. You can see my name on the list of graduands at the top left of this montage.
I don’t remember much about the actual ceremony nor the rest of the day, perhaps because I was hungover from the night before..
On the right you see details of the Graduation Dinner held on Friday 21st June. When that ended, a large crowd went to the Pickerel where I remember singing all the verses of the Blaydon Races although I don’t remember why..
