Oh Anna – What a wonderful review. I was laughing so hard the tears came — I guess that’s because, fortunately, I’ve had the privilege of knowing both of them.

You have yet another fine talent.: Writing humorous interpretations of life.

Well done. I think I will read your review again right now..

I think it took place last month! But John MacGinnis is talking at the Trust on the 15th February.

Looks fascinating! Thanks for the link, there are some beautiful objects there. Almost as good as being able to visit the exhibition from here in Australia…

Comment on Michaelmas Term Lectures by Shaista Tayabali

I would like to make a heartfelt plea! I see that Almut Hintze’s lecture (unsurprisingly) is fully booked. But if there is any remote chance that a cancellation might occur, or even that room could be made for a small Zoroastrian person (me) to squeeze into, I would be so very grateful!
Knowing Almut, she won’t mind me sitting cross-legged in a corner somewhere… will you let me know either way, please?
Thankyou!
Shaista

Hi Havovi, I’ve booked you in for the Zoroastrian Vision talk (please come and say hello when you arrive so we can keep track of names and numbers!) but you are not required to book for the rest of the term’s lectures, so please, just come along! Very best wishes, Anna

Great pictures. A nice reminder of an enjoyable ‘summer’ event.

The Dawn of Eternity

Dear Everyone, Has any poet, author, expert or lover of these quatrains… noted the possible source of the Insights, Intuitions common to both Omar Khayyam and Edward FitzGerald as springing from ‘Salutation of The Dawn’ by Kalidasa ? as such I feel is the case.
