	Walking along the blustery Bournemouth beach we found ourselves in our luxury hotel, where we were free to enjoy its extensive facilities..

Some facilities were used more …

	… than others.
	where old friends got to meet and …
	… discuss many interesting (and important!) issues.
	Soon, introductions were made …
	… and the presentations commenced, …
	… where many interesting points were made, followed by questions from the audience.

	After a few more presentations, …
	… on various topics, …
	… our Chair appeared to become more and more eager …
	… for food.
	A nourishment break was taken, where we could all talk come more.
	After several more sessions, …
	… by a number of distinguished researchers, …
	… the evening party commences …
	… where dancing and music was to be enjoyed.

	The following evening, some of us participated in a quiz, …
	… where it was not only the questions that were surprising!
	Rivalry was intense, …
	… but there was only one winning team.
	We agree! A successful workshop!
	But all good things have to come to an end, we say. As we pack up our things …
	… and head for home, …
	… the Brunel can be seen in the distance.
