September 2008A Walk in the Treetops...
It may be old fashioned, but we still like to get all staff together away from the office for a day each year to relax, visit a place of interest and enjoy each others’ company. This year we went to Kew Gardens with the specific intention of walking in the treetops at the new installation 18m above the ground. This was followed by a long lunch at a local family-run Greek restaurant and a snooze afterwards in the Gardens – yes, the sun shone for us all day!

May 2008Dam by Trevor Turpin
Dam , written by Director Trevor Turpin, was published in May by Reaktion Books - ‘a profusely illustrated exploration of a previously neglected subject, the book is neither a polemic against nor a defence of the proliferation of dams. It offers a fresh and much needed account of their design, function and construction which will appeal to dam engineers, historians, students and environmentalists as well as those who previously only recognized the Dambusters March’. www.Reaktionbooks.co.uk.
