Lunch with IRO Officers

IRO officers and us
I suspect the waitress at the restaurant must have honed her photo-taking skills by helping many customers take photographs during lunch or dinner. How else do you explain such a decently composed photograph, without flash and not much handshake.
But anyhow, this afternoon, we were delighted to meet up with NUS IRO officers at Fox and the Ferret Ale House along Riccarton. The meal was delightful and one of the best since my arrival. Later on in the afternoon, travelled down to visitor i-site in the city centre to book our coach passes to Dunedin, accommodation and return trip for this weekend.
In the evening, Prof Peter Guthrie of Cambridge University gave a lecture on "Sustainable Development - Time to Act : A Civil Engineer's Response" which provoked much thought provoking debate and comments from the audience of academics and students.
