One didn't really need to look at the screen, as it turned out, but it was a nice add-on. I thought she was terrific, and will write a post on that session once I catch up with myself.<BR/><BR/>Bernice, yes, that architectural quirk is a beauty. It was almost like Stonehenge: an arrangement of sun and stone specifically desgined to make one cogitate on mystery. Bonython Hall actually faces north-south, so it's only in midwinter that you get those celestial rays through the north-facing windows. Of course, anything more east-west oriented would ensure that punters got blinded by the light at both ends.Kerryn Goldsworthyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11270814460793882309noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17433936.post-50490131900041934152007-07-07T16:26:00.000+09:302007-07-07T16:26:00.000+09:30Given that I'm more The Woman who has Misplaced So...Given that I'm more The Woman who has Misplaced Something these days, the serendiptious attendance at events due to obtuse programs is something I can strongly identify with.
